The Deer Hunter - Buck 118 Personal (permanent thread - keep adding)

[FLINT77]

The first 118 I had, I managed to push the upswept tip through the sheath. Live and learn.

Bert

How could you do such a thing??!!!! So careless!!

 

[Jeff of the North]

I looked all over online and didn’t find any new 118’s in either of the the regular variety.
If someone finds one send me a message, I’d like to get one.

Message sent. Good luck Don! I hope you get one, or two!

Dag gum i saw i had a email from copper and clad and they showed a 118 black handle amongst a few others.
I’m like i need one to join the club so was gonna just order it.
OUT OF STOCK!!
Did they pop up and go fast or they just listing it to punish me for procrastinating
In the past??

 

[GPyro]

They may go into the system Monday morning.

 

[David Nowlin]

J Jeff of the North , Thank you for the heads up, I did manage to order both varieties. I may be a bit obsessed, going from not ever handled one to owning 4 of the 118's in just a few weeks all the while still looking for older variations.

I'm not sure what the term Snoopy Sheath really describes. The only flat sheath I have on a Buck 118 is this one from the early 1980's. Is this a "Snoopy Sheath"? I bought this one NIB a number of years ago in Fayetteville NC, this is the sheath and the knife that came together in a single piece top-flap type box. OH
