that reverse tanto is weird to me. should have just made it a spear point. maybe ill warm up to it, but my first reaction is yuck.....

 

[Lesknife]

Yes it looks weird to me too and I’m trying to figure what it’s designed for.

 

[Enzo’s Woodshop]

that OD green onset looks real nice imo.

 

[HolyRoller]

I kinda like the new blade shape. But that pocket clip looks... Wrong?

Like, the way this would carry, the knife's weight would keep it straight down. But, due to the angle of the clip's main bend, only one edge of the clip will rest on the pocket.

Even if the pocket is angled like on some pants, they angle the opposite way.

Unless I'm seeing something wrong, I feel like this will cause premature wear to the pocket.

The new 841 looks good to me.

Yeah that’s fugly. The drop points aren’t bad though and I kinda like that little auto.

 

[gotgoat]

I like the auto's

 

[stevekolt]

Oh well, another group without a flippable clip for lefty carry. My wallet sighs in relief...

 

[eveled]

To each his own, but nothing on that page appeals to me at all.

 

[timbits588]

Reminds me more of a modified sheepsfoot than a tanto, to be honest.

 

[Bloodloss]

It's great to see everyone's reactions to these. I've never been a fan of Buck's modern folders and I think maybe these are some of the most appealing ones I've seen.

 

[Rupestris]

I don't like that more of the imported options are full height grinds and the majority of the US made knives aren't.

 

[Bloodloss]

That 843 looks like it was made to pair well with the 891 & 893 ground combat knives.

 

[ncnurseryman]

Uhh... nothing in that group appeals to me. They are an odd looking bunch.

 

[Uncle Buckmaster]

Yeah, not digging any of those really... I mean, I like the Buck 841, but there's already one with marble carbon fiber scales and red cerakoted screws/clip which looks nicer, IMO.

 

[brianv]

I'm not much for any of those either.

Here is a video from Blade Show re: these new Buck releases:

For some reason the little auto will the small blade like the recent BOTM appeals to me. Since I collect 112's I have been basically carried one for years now. Got 2 on my desk as I write. But I really don't need 3" or longer blades most of the time. And since the carpal tunnel surgery didn't work all that well I absolutely want to EDC a auto.
