is it? thought 102 handle was shorter than this one. total length wise shows 8.75" with blade of 4.5"...102 shows 7.75" total length with blade of 4".Not for me, another 102 handled 117 Brahma @$180. You folks enjoy it and post many photos
gotcha. i misunderstood.....following ya now. thank you.The description calls it a 117 Brahma and it does not have a Brahma pommel. I should have said a 102, 103, 105, style Micarta handle & Aluminum gurad & pommel.
Just off the phone with Buck its a 105 handleNot for me, another 102 handled 117 Brahma @$180. You folks enjoy it and post many photos
Although, now that I think of it, if you are trying to complete a collection, I guess it's an easy buy. Lucky for me I'm not! haha
This one uses the larger 105 handle and guards.Not for me, another 102 handled 117 Brahma @$180. You folks enjoy it and post many photos
Gas hit $7.17 per gallon up here and I've been stuck on the couch for the last 18 hours with a horrible case of Norovirus. The 117 is one my of favorite Buck fixed blades so this gave me a reason to perk up. I wouldn't wish this stomach bug affliction on my worst enemy.Bloody hell... I'm in. I can't afford to gas up the car and go anywhere ( out here in California, gas is already heading towards $6.00 a gallon in some areas), may as well have another new knife to fondle since I'll be spending more time at I'm home.
