Thank ITE for another SPS. I look forward to each and every one. I like your fillet knife. I think I need one for my own use.

Thanks GoJoJo, these fillet knives work great for cleaning fish... Nice and lite... Like a bucklite...
The Sawby is heavier... and they come with a open top sheath... :thumbup:

I hope you have time to share a picture today with all of here on the SPS... :)
 
Thanks once again Armand for posting another SPS! :)
I really like those folding filet knives you started this week's SPS off with. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:


Kind of a long story about this 112;

It was a good week for me.
I have been busy in the shop most of the week.
These first pictures I'm posting today are of a 112 with a 1988 mirror finish blade. These were build outs Buck offered a few years ago, so I really had to think about whether I wanted to remove the real Macassar Ebony wood covers or not. I am really glad I did after the way it turned out!!

I'm not much of a 112 fan only because they feel too small in my hand…and I only re-handled this one because of a stupid mistake.
These beautiful ram's horn scales were going on one of my 50th anniversary 110's, but "Wrong Way Stumps" got turned around while I was flipping the scale to grind on them a little. I ground the angle wrong and would have had about 1/16' missing if I put it on the 110. :o
Anyway…I'm kind of glad that I screwed up now. The ram's horn really looks nice with the brass bolsters and mirror finish blade!! I even used brass pins to dress it up.





EDIT; Adding another picture. Just playing with a different camera to see how I like it. :)

What a great week for my Buck 110 50th Anniversary collection!! :):thumbup::)

I received TEN 50th Anniversary 110's this week!! :)

The top two I left the way I received them…with the Husqvarna blades.
The rest were all NS Chairman knives that I bought to re-handle
The middle one has worm grooved bone with pins.
The next is worm grooved bone without pins (for now)
The last in this first photo has ram's horn covers with pins.



In this next photo the top one and the middle one are Impala jigged buffalo horn with no pins.
The second and the fourth are camel bone with pins. (there was a thread in the last couple weeks here on the forum about camel bone, so I had to try it)
The bottom knife is African Blackwood with pins



This is what five of them looked like a few days ago;

Herbert…that is beautiful!! Makes me want to go backpacking right now.:)


Armand made me go look for my folding filet knives.
The lighter weight grey one is from 1992.
The middle mid frame lock back is from 1990. (I like these best because of the heavier feel over the grey ones)
The TruBlue in front has the Sawby lock and a dot under the 1988 date stamp.










I posted this a few days ago on the "Buck Knives With Food" thread that Chris started….but thought since most of you won't be harvesting anything like this until next summer that I would show you what's growing in my garden right now and what I harvested it with. :)

 
One last post of Buck filet knives and then I'll sit back and enjoy today's show.

I didn't realize Bass Pro had a 127 until I found the one in these pictures.
Now if I could only find the Bass Pro 125 to go along with the Bass Pro 122 and Bass Pro 127. :)
(I've had the 123 with the Bass Pro worn off the blade in the pictures since 1984 and still use it a couple times a week)












This is a pet pig that meets hikers along the Appalachian Trail in Vermont.

Looks like you had great weather up there!! Did you climb the Approach Trail or come up from RD 42?
I've spent about five New Year's Eve nights on that mountain and started my long walks from there a few times.
There's usually no leaves on the trees and snow on the ground when I'm up there though. :)

Yes I had, but the sun shines only the five minutes I spent on the mountain. The most time I had cluody sky and a lot of showers.
I did the Approach Trail and spent the night at Black Gap Shelter. They had a long winter up there. I found snow in the shadow
and the green was just a few days old. It was in May this year ... I think it is a good place for New Year's Eve ... But it is too far
away from Germany :rolleyes:

Good morning fellow Buck lovers, and thank you Armand for your diligence in keeping the SPS running. Mark you have gotten really good at re-handles!

I was able to add two more previously needed knives to my collection of BCCI Annual knives. I now need only one year (the 2008 55 Mini-Folding Hunter) to have every Annual edition the club has put out. Then I can start on all the fund raisers! :)

This week is the 192 Vanguard and 191 Zipper from 1994 and 1995. The walnut on these is great.

I asked Armand last night on the phone what he was going to post today. I laid out some fillet knives to photograph this morning and everyone has beaten me to the punch. Going another direction, here is a repeat post of a fillet knife you don't see very often.
Cedar Creek Fillet by Iron Mtn. Knife Company, Borrego Springs, CA (defunct).
Trolling is my favorite way to fish.

Another repeat photo. Fawn hiding in deadfall near our upper pond.

Here's a 559 folding fillet back lock knife with really useful gimping just behind the blade on the top of the handle from 2001, shown with a 110 for scale, with black resin handle that kind of looks like an eel using the lanyard hole as the eye:





Eels at the last downstream dam on the mighty Columbia River thru viewing window into the fish ladder (a way around the dam for fish and such):

 
Sticking with the filet knife, a yellow 123 lakemate. It's a user and my favorite, just the right bend to the blade.







 
Holiday toothpicks and a little scar in the future :)
I should mention that the shoulder isn't as bad as it looks :D
