I don't own any of the Buck military knives.

Couple of years back I had the opportunity to pick up one of the Nighthawk knives at their factory closeout sale for less than $40, and I passed on it. I have had occasion to question that decision several times since then.

However, it's not all bad news.

Since I live not far from the factory, I do get to visit the different military models from time to time.

Maybe next time I get a shot at a legacy piece for small dollars I'll actually go for it.

For those of you who have never actually been to the factory, it's instructive to observe the culture there first hand. One of the things that impressed me was the clear connection to their roots and their open declaration of values.

There's a simple plaque, mounted on a stone pillar, that memorializes the man who started it all: the man whose effort to support the troops directly, led to the creation of the company we know today as Buck Knives.

There aren't many companies today that can say that support for our troops and military is woven into the basic fabric of the company and its culture. Buck Knives, however, is clearly one of those.
