May 2023 BOTM: 110 Slim Pro TRX: 3V steel, Brass Scales

It must be a really satisfying feeling when you were the person at Buck who had to design a BOTM knife and it sells out in just a few hours. I wonder if it is a different person than the last two?

I would imagine not. I bought one from Stumps several years ago as a gift for my dad. I think they were made around 2012 or so.

No, he is offering something right now. Brass and copper. But copper is sold out. Maybe it is not a 186, I'll have to check. It looks like a 186.

Edit: they have 110 blades on them but the handle has holes in it, like the 186. Not sure what the blade was in the 186.
 
There's some interesting etched alloys I've seen thru the years.
The possibilities are endless there.

I know the magnacut 110 sold out within a few hours a couple of months ago, but it wasn't a Buck of the Month. Is this the record for Buck of the Month?

My guess is no. But I'm not sure anyone has been keeping track. There have been other BOTM that went very fast.

O.B.
 
It might be the fastest run of 750 pieces, but definitely not the quickest to sell out as far as the clock is concerned. The 303 went in the blink of an eye and the Betsy Ross 105 even quicker. I'm sure there are others.
But if there were only 250 pieces, this would be pretty close to the top, albeit with a limit of 10.

I think you are correct. There were 750 of these made and in some of the earlier BOTM offerings, there were very few made. I missed out on all those earlier ones.

I think, but I'm not positive, that when I ordered mine (which was about 15 minutes after I got the email) there were already 250 or so sold.

Not that I can figure. I can easily purchase a regular Slim, Slim Pro or TRX so what would make this one any different? The blade certainly doesn't flip open on bearings. It sure isn't the brass scales or 3V steel so it must be some mistake on the part of whomever codes the shipping info for selected countries.

We may never know. ~shrug~

edit: nice to see you still hanging around Mike! 😁
 
The more I look at this knife, the more I wish it had a combo plain/serrated blade, I think that would have stood out realllllll nice.
 
Very little talk of Cerakote on this one or the choice of 3V steel. You could probably pound this blade through a brick, but I have a feeling most of these will be show pieces. I doubt I'll use mine for more than opening letters. It's just too nice.

Should have a varying pattern of red and blue anodized torx screws. And a red/blue thumb stud
