New 2023 Bucks

I sorta wonder if the "pause" of the 124 is a lead up to the introduction of the new Buck master variant..... Eh, maybe.

I'm liking the idea of a 117 and 192 pro series knives.
I missed out on the 117 BOTM, and have made numerous wishes for an upgraded steel, micarta handled Vanguard.

😁😁😁😁

I think you are probably right. Looks like internet chatter about it started about 3-4 weeks ago. I am supposedly subscribed to Buck's newsletter and email notifications. Why didn't they announce the new product using that method? It makes me wonder what other new products I missed out on. Anyway, I ordered the complete set of 7 knives in Burlwood. I am not that much of a fan of the imported slipjoints, but they don't cost that much and they look cool.

Let's see some photos when you get the time. I have a 371 that gets a lot of pocket time when I know there'll be nephews around. Lotta bang for the buck.

I didn't notice the Burlwoods on the slipjoints. When did that happen? Why didn't they put them on the US slipjoints too? I am going to get some. They look sweet even though imported. Maybe if this is a recent change, ones with 2022 blades will be rare. Or maybe if I order now, I get 2023 blades anyways.

I received a Canoe with Burlwood and a 2021 blade! Use em up, I suppose.

Oh decisions to make...

I've wanted a 124 for a long time, but could never justify spending that kind of money on a knife I don't really have a use case for. And then there's the BOTM flat grind 119 that is also particularly attractive... Now with the 124 potentially going away (or on hiatus) I don't know what to do! I can't even ask my wife for advice, she'll just give me the eye roll and tell me to do whatever I want, and then remind me we have a lot of knives, lol.

We have a group that meets and discusses life threatening concerns like this. Could have you whipped into shape in no time. Maybe not in time to get that 124 at MSRP but can show you how you can get it for much more if you have an internet connection and credit card. ;)

I can't say I've ever used my 124 but it's there if I need it. Now I just worry about why I may need it.

/Remember this thread and one from a member that did all his carving with a 124(can't find it).

Hard used Buck 124’s

Does anyone have a hard used Buck 124? On youtube and online I see them but they are mainly Safe Queens! now i see a lot of hard used 119’s but the 124s are always pristine.

Do new models usually come out all at once or spread out over the year (or something else)?

All of the above. Buck usually has a booth at the SHOT show and introduces new knives to their line then. They also do so through out the year and just had a 'stealth' knife introduction.
 
I got all excited about the Alphas and the Vanguard....😊

There's some other new stuff as well.
Has anybody seen a price list for 2023?
