As long as it was "FULL" of Buck fixed blades:D[/QUOTE]

I'll fill the Basket with Puma knives, hope that it takes the same effect like garlic to a vampire. Do you agree, dave?

Haebbie
 
oh it would work on me for sure as i was likeing the Puma knives but for more money then buck years ago...

i am not so worred of EEE as that Rhino guy with the guns...
and i know he likes fried chicken, 'tater salad, and all that picknick food!
of course i dont know how fast/far EEE can chase...
like as not i could slow him down by throwing a few old user buck folders with only one or two lines down behind us... he would slow down to pick them up i am sure...

that egun is ... well ... some site for sure... i got lost...
 
Triple E...
That is one of the nicest Buck knifes I have ever seen.
Art.
I am glad I asked and thankful to you for sharing.

Haebbie...I hope you don't mind the the thread jacking, but you, as me, seem to like the education we receive here, so I hope you don't mind asking the Buck brethren...

1> Why doesn't the 124 have a blood groove (like the 119 and 120 have).

2> AND, is there really a fucntional purpose to the blood groove on a knife?

only as much as to make the blade lighter and stiffer.
it is on the same idear as a ' I ' or a ' H ' beam... you hollow the balde for lightness and balance.
on bannets they used to use a triangle balde to do the same thing...
full hollow grind also helps with lightness and sharping...
with flesh being plastic and like a jello why would you need a 'blood grove' as it would seal as well as to a flat balde?
yes that is one verry art full knife... DY does good work!
as to # 1 ... my best guess is that as a camp knife you want heft and mass.
in the water also you need mass as you have to much resistance to swing a arm with a knife to get the speed you need. i have used my 124 as both camp and dive knife. it is better as camp as dive if bare handed rubber grip is better... the new buck dive knife is grrrreat as a dive knife...
 
EEE,
How much did YH charge to give your 124 a facelift?????? Not that it's any of our bizz......just curious.

Goose, don't be worried, I'm able to take some hits. Just now I'm a bit careful with my answers, cause I don't wonna be chuck out of the best buck and knife forum all around the world.:D ;) :) :) :)

But earnestly, in the short time I'm allowed to take part of this Forum I learned a lot, and not only things about Buck or other knives. For me this is the first serious contact to the U.S.A and to American people. And I'm very thankful, that you give me a chance to learn a bit of the American way of liife, be it by kidding an old German Buck fan.

With best regrds,
Herbert

Hi Herbert...
I read this and wanted to thank you for the kind words about us.
Seems scarey :eek: that we are your first impression but yet at the same time it's real cause we're real. It don't matter what, where, or why...we share a common bond.
Hell, we're even nice to people from that holler they call West Virginia and the swamps of Florida.
And even of you cut up a goose for Christmas, that's ok...

BA, you're welcome! But: seems scary for whom? For me or for you (or the BF)? And: Is it curious to cut up a goose for christmas? I'm not so familar with the Englisch language, especially the BF English and the American conventions. :rolleyes: But I'll try to learn. :) ;)

Best regards,
Herbert

It's rare to have Goose for Christmas or Thanksgiving where I live (NorthEast USA); Turkey is the traditional bird. There is a strange concoction that has been catching on lately [last 10 - 12 years] around these parts called Tur-Duck-En...It's a Chicken, placed inside a Duck, placed inside a Turkey...then cooked all at once...with various spices & seasonings... :cool:

Seems to have originated West of here; I don't really know the details...someone else might...but I'm looking forward to trying it sometime... :)

I do cook Turkey...low heat (~375*F); slow cooking...Took 7 hours once (big bird - 20+ #); but it was delicious...basted with butter every half-hour... :D

I'm actually more interested in Turkey sandwiches than Turkey dinners...on Italian bread...with lots of butter & salt...sometimes a leaf or two of lettuce...but no mayo!!! :grumpy:

Cajun cookin'......actually very tasty.
Better than Duck drippin' bread
 
Herbert...
"Scary" in that we are your impression of the US. :)
Actually, I was just kidding as I think these gents here represent the spectrum. I got a chuckle when CJ posted something about us "Alpha Males" helping with the website comments. I am so not "Alpha Male"...more like "preppy"...LOL.
ANYWAY, the goose for Christmas is fine as long as your name is not "Goose" ;)

Buck should pump some money into this forum hoster. I might as well be sponsoring a kid in Idaho and getting a letter and a photo once a year. The other day I pulled the trigger on a 124 thanks to the Buck pimps on this thread (RON!!!!).
