Paging DarrylS - Custom 446???

[chickentrax]

DarrylS - Is this the custom 446 you mentioned a week or so ago??? I know you were talking about a 446 something...I stumbled on this one while looking for another eBay auction last week...IIRC, the seller had a BIN of $155; the bidding was at $120 when I first checked (with 6 days to go), and the BIN disappeared the next time I checked (6 bids/$145)...

I didn't take a close look at it, and the pic I saved got cropped by Photobucket -



It was -

The auction is over by now...Don't know who bought it (you???), it was item # 4623739303

...I do believe that's the knife Trax...I don't know the buyer but it's a neat lookin' brute...Wouldn't mind tryin' to get my mitts around that one...

 

[chickentrax]

...But what is it???...

Is it supposed to be a hunting knife??? Looks more like something you'd shuck clams with...

...A "Buck Clam Shucker"...Who'd a thought huh?...LOL...Definitely appears to be a version of that 446 Goliath beast though...Didn't realize they had put any together with the wood and brass...Gotta keep my eyes open for another one of those...

How many clams can a Buck knife shuck if a Buck knife could shuck clams Chuck?

Yeah, that Goliath looks like a Frontiersman folder.

...Oh man...I love good ol' New England style...There'd be no shortage of "Clam Chowder" with one o' those things around...Wonder why I ain't seen 'em around before...

...I found this one early this morning browsing around the web looking for a sheath for a 446...I don't think it's the same one from that _Bay joint though...Looks a bit darker to me...I wish I could find the site I found this one at...Wonder what the story is on these things...

 

[chickentrax]

... ...

Why would Buck make anything that big a folder???

Honestly...Could you skin or gut anything with a blade that thick???

 

[DarrylS]

...Maybe one of those "rhinohipposauruses" or somethin'...Maybe a Spam 2.5 pounder even...That thing must weigh close to 2 pounds itself...

 

[chickentrax]

...WTF???...

I go looking for Buck Customs on ...er...a "Knife Auction" site...and find this...

Where are these things coming from??? Is this something new from Buck???

...Didn't notice the bid just grabbed the pic and ran...I have one from Dave somewhere so I ain't in the market right now...Besides...my wife saw the CC statement and almost got the Sheriff's dept. to serve me "papers" ...Be back later...Gonna take her out to dinner and try to salvage next month's knife budget...
