My uncle passed away a couple years ago and my aunt had me go thru some of his things. She was going to sell some tools etc. I purchased the tools, Goldwing etc. I came across his Buck 112 with a BPA Safety award on the sheath and blade. BPA is Bonneville Power Adminstration. Vietnam vet. One tough guy.
My aunt knows about my knife collecting and said to please keep it. A little slice of his past. Cool.

Very cool Mike. Thanks.
Your son will appreciate that I'm sure.
Sometimes I think the history attached to something is more valuable than the item.
Sometimes you see these older knives being sold and you wonder......
I bought an old car awhile back from a WWII vet. It was his baby, and he worked at the dealer when he came home.
I don't know If I bought the car or his story. I just fell in love with the old guy.
And then you wonder if anyone that didn't know them could ever appreciate the item as much as you.
But I don't care. Just knowing makes it special.

This was my first Buck knife. It's a #118 I got in 1967.

My next knife was a Trapper that I broke, using it as an ice pick. Buck replaced it. I think it was in 1971.

My First Buck knife. A Mastodon handled 901 Custom D-Guard. Has 2 cracks in the handle. I plan on passing it down when the time comes. Just need to get a value for insurance and to finish polishing it up.
