ugh what ever happened to the 651 pig stickers?
have been watching the waters for one
( bro wants one for xmas)
but have not seen any !!!
seems odd as most show up on the bay offten but
these seem to have jest vanished ...
 
The wild pig is a big, fast and dangerous animal.

People who hunt pigs with knives often get killed or badly injured by the pig.

Then, in all the confusion, the knife gets lost in the woods.

Get thee a metal detector and get thee to pig country!!!
 
Maybe they all got collected up by collectors and the others that got's em likes em ...
But seems funny that when mentioned on the forum stuff either goes up in price or magically appears in the waters...

Really? You're kiddin, right? Come on, people don't really hunt wild pigs with just a knife do they?
About availability, didn't I read on here that most of them went to the Australian Market?
 
Dave, Buck sold the 651 in Germany too. And from time to
time I see one floating in the German Beach or in the shops.
Am I search one for you respectively for Clint?

Best,
Herbert

Ya a lot of people do. But don't know anyone that's been killed or badly injured though, yes the potential is there.

I wish. I'm looking out for one of those bad boys to add to my slowly growing Nighthawk collection. Have missed out on two on the Exchange here in recent times. Hoping third time is just around the corner.
 
Just thought I would post a picture of mine for those that haven't seen the 651 Intruder and/or Pig Sticker.

Second one down

Got mine off the bay for $57.15 total. I saw them come out a couple at a time and was always to late. Then one morning I spotted four for sale and I got mine and another guy at work got his. So I always know where two are.

Information on the 651 has been an elusive as the knife itself. I did finally locate some interesting facts though.
Buck made 1750 of them and the vast majority of those we sent out of the country. The last ones I saw had a label date of 2008.

....I dug around some and found out that there were a total of 1886 made. I havent been able to determine how many went to Australia and how many stayed here though.

Also see this thread ...

information on any single model can some times be found out all at once
some models it dribbles in
i checked in to that knife when i seen one posted by another fourm member
information was way less then 100
but that number from the girls in the store changed as folks said they had one
then later some one showed up on the bay waters selling them cheep
some time later it come out that some one in sales sold a large "found" surplus to one person
who sold them as little as 50 $ some went high most were reasonable
then the totals changed from what joe found the first time

the knife is a unique knife in its size and name
and the full story of it has yet to be discovered !!!
who ordered the knives ?
who designed them ?
who named them ?
and were did the main batch go ?

as of now it is still kinda of a some times on some times off to finding them
once i decided to give the one i had to a grand son
i wanted another one and my bro said he wanted that one or a simon ravatch (sp)
for to carry in his truck ...
so .. i have been watching and not seen a single one on ebay

no dought one will show up now ...
seems much of what we talk of here is reflected there

some call it the invisible hand theory...it's an economic theory that prescribes...wherever there is a need or want...and wherever there is a service or goods...
the "invisible hand" seems to guide each unto the other...
You will get your Pig Sticker Dave.....


Of course , the Google Machine seems to help this invisible hand out quite a bit now a days.....
 
most likely i will find one
i DO hope that Joe may show up with more information on them!
i still think they are a spechal knife ... miltary .. yep very old time miltary
but i some how think to much water under the bridge to learn now

now dont get me wrong there are 110's that i want verry badly !!!
and will give up finding a pig sticker for !!!
oh for example .... a vet nam wall gold etch 110
around 1000 made but have never seen what one looks like...
and a few others ...
thoes i wont even try to negocate price!!
if for sale and i have the money then they will be called sold

mumm may start a gold etch thread...:)

And if the need or want is great and the supply low.....the invisible hand guides the price straight up through the roof.

I was surfing the bay several months ago and caught an error. An E seller had the 651 listed with a Buy it Now for 65$. I picked up three of them. I also sold them for $110 each. This was when they were all over the bay for $130.
