Let’s see the True Buck users. Pics please.

Oh I wasn’t offended or making light Of your comments. Mainly I was thinking of some of the eBay offerings that look as though they were using them as scrapers or chisels. Lol. I don’t baby my knives but I’m careful and mindful of how I go about it.

I’ve seen a few guys open a sack of rock salt by first stabbing it then slashing it like they were fighting a grizzly bear or a wild boar. that sack of salt was d e a d ! while I use a utility knife just lightly running the tip to make a slight cut. Then it breaks open with very little pressure. Sometimes if the utility knife is missing I use my pocket knife much the same way.

Anyway I try to use just enough to make the cut so as to save the edge in an efficient manner. But that’s just me. I think I learned that from my dad.

I’m the same way. Minimize the wear, but still get the job done.

I turn the doorknob then release it after closing the door so the striker plate doesn’t get worn. Crazy things like that without realizing or thinking about it.

It’s a different way of thinking I once heard it poetically described it as “mechanical harmony”.

I agree. It's a matter of treating things like you want them to last forever rather than using them up.

Greetings all,
nice thread Makael , very good to see Buck knives (users)

I have this Buck 055 in my pocket most days.

Nope, I ordered & received that 112FG (420HC, brass, oak, pins, & engraved) that year, and it came that way. One of the reasons it’s my favorite BUCK.

Here are a couple to contribute. They get daily (or semi daily) use and have held up very well. I love Buck. I use others but these were within reach. Once I recover from surgery I’ll post more of the ones I use on a regular basis. For now, these will do. And they do indeed see a lot of use. Great great thread. Thank you all for sharing.
