Show me: 501 Squires?

My wife ordered a Custom Shop 501 burl wood matching scales and S30V for me for our anniversary, without my knowledge so it was a good surprise, she had already given me the 119, but the 501 just came in today.View attachment 1183605
wonderful example there, Sir.
 
Wow! There are some truly gorgeous Buck 501 knives in this thread. I only have a couple and while I like them very much they are not nearly as nice as some of the knives others have posted.
The first 501 is an older one with the micarta handle scales but someone before I bought it had Buck re-blade the knife. It makes a really nice EDC with the micarta.

The second is a 501 I ordered from their custom shop. S30v blade steel with water buffalo handle scales. This also makes a great office edc.

I really like this knife. I've had my eye on them for a while, but finally getting to handle one made me realize I had to finally get one. This knife is the perfect size; about the same proportions as my favorite slipjoints but...better. This knife is a tank for its size.
Thick liners, stainless pins and a solid lockup. Now I know what my next purchase will be... Custom shop here I come :D
