love pocket clips.. and that looks great.....but without a safety seems too risky to me for carry. guess against seam of pocket is a bit of a safety, but I wouldnt do it. that said it's your call and it does look great. just need a version from buck with a safety and factory pocket clip..but I'd prefer a 110 myself.:)

Do u know how hard your body would have to hit the release button for it to open. Can't imagine what you would have to be doing for it to open. But like you said it's an individual call. But remember this is coming from a guy who sliced his thumb tendon with a 639 lol. Not the best guy for knife advice lol.
 
Thank You ITE for another eye candy filled Greatest Show. A couple of Alpha Hunters for today's show.

yes I do. for education sake...i copied and pasted below from Bill Deshivs point carrying an auto without a safety.....

"George Schrade realized the recessed button was not an adequate safety over 100 years ago. All his subsequent designs had safeties."

I pasted that so ya dont think it's just me saying it. no one doubts Bills expertise in making, designing and doing mods and repair work on auto knives.

buck made it for sheath carry and even a modified sheath from a standard one, for a reason, being safety. they care about their customers and their safety. the button on the buck isnt even a complete recessed design.

no one believes it will happen, until it does. it can happen and does. i agree we're all adults and can do what we want, but kids and beginners do read the forum. just felt important to mention it. sorry for derailing sps. its important people are well educated on auto knives and safe carry. just be careful dont like reading folks getting cut.

back to the show...

also great show. thanks y'all.

jb, I, for one agree, that's a safety issue(to carry the 110/112 auto out side the sheath). The 898 Impact is what I carry. It has a clip, a safety and is design to be pocket carried.

I have the 112 and 110 autos, I carry them in the field and use the sheath. Preston

Looks like David K and myself both served as fire fighters in the AF. Here is a plaque the German chief made everyone once the tour was up.Germany then California at Beale where the SR71 is stationed.

The knives im showing are the collaboration between Buck and Tops. Both Idaho made.
The 690, 095 and 680. First release of the 690 was in 420 steel. Then switched to 154CM. Little different grind and sized holes in the blade. High quality Kydex and nylon sheaths. They have the 1/4 drive fitting and you can order the bit kit for them. These knives are really heavy duty. They all have G10 scales with Rocky mt tread pattern except the early folder which was smooth g10. Then the skeletonized neck knife version.

Thats a cool collection. I wish I would of snagged up one of the fixed blades when they were out. Their very stout blades. I like the Buck tops colabs.
Now u just need to grab one with the seat belt cutter to complete the set.
