New to the Forum and I Have my First Question

[rebelmachine2000]

Hello, I've been looking about this forum for a few weeks and I've finally decided to join. I must say that people here are much friendlier than on the other forum I haunt (Club 4AG). Furthermore, it is nice to find people with common interests. I work at a local Starbucks and when I pull out a knife there to cut up a box or some other miscellaneous task, people look at me like I'm a monster. Suffice it to say, I think this will be a nice place for me to talk about knives till I'm blue in the face. As for my first question, for those familiar with the Buck Custom Shop feature on the Buck website (probably everyone). I'm thinking of ordering a custom 110 with the BG-42 blade, nickel bolsters, and the Asian waterbuffalo inlays. The problem is that the picture of the knife as you're designing it is quite poor. If anyone has ordered a knife with the Asian waterbuffalo inlays and has pictures I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

First of all, welcome to Bladeforums! Glad to have you join us as a participating member.

Next, I can't say I'm too deeply into Buck knives, as much as I respect the company. But we do have a Buck Knives Forum, where you may find people better able to answer your question. In fact, there is a recent thread there right now, have you used the Buck Custom Knife shoppe?, where they discuss exactly the materials you're asking about! Have fun

Nice first post...and welcome. Whoa, sorry there Esav, didn't know you were posting. I have a pix or 2 for rebelmachine2000 before he gets inundated with pixs from the Buck Knives Forum.

Delighted to have you join in! I just directed him to a thread you answered his question on already.

Welcome to Blade Forums. I think that this photo should satisfy your request. It's a great knife and one of my favorites.

Thanks for all the replies and photos everyone. Now I know that I will definitely be getting the Asian waterbuffalo handles.
