Slipjoint Numbering?

[JD Mandrell]

I have the small single blade solo of the new Buck slipjoints, and it's model number is 379.

Does anyone know the model numbers for the other new slipjoints?

371, 373, 375 & 379. They would be the Chinese equivalent of the 301, 303, and 305. The 379 is a little departure because unlike the 309 it only has one blade.

Thanks!

I gotta say, so far I am real impressed with the 379.

ooops I forgot one, in the early 80's Buck made a 2 blade Trapper with the 311 model number.

I had one that my brother traded me.

It was actually a "contract" knife made by Camillus. It was a rather rare one that said Buck U.S.A. 311 on the tang, but the side plaque on the scale said "Winchester" they were ordered by a Winchester sales rep. as gifts for employees. His father-in-law got 2 of them, the 311 trapper and ther 301 stockman.

I'm working on trading the stockman off of him now.
