Hi stevep,

Welcome to the Buck forum! The symbol next to the model number is the date code for the year the knife/blade was made. You will find a date code sticky at the top of the Buck forum page. take a look and come back and tell us what year your knife was made.

+1 I agree with what Herbert said. We will need to see a photo.

Upside down 'V' (1988) looks like a capital 'A' if you don't look closely.

It could have a dot in the V... I have a few... <dot ... and it's look like a A sideway...

Had a couple of 525's with the upside down V with a dot in the middle. It looks like an A. I have never seen a 103 with it though.
