Here's a few fixed blades I keep handy. Never used never sharpened. I just like them as I got them from Buck. I like the clip point on the 119 Alaskan guide. There is also a 692 skinner Alaskan Guide both are S30V and as sharp as a razor. I wish I could get a brahma hachet.

View attachment 1280515 View attachment 1280516 View attachment 1280517 When the Model 186 Titan came out in 1986, it had several features that were cutting edge.
The handle was Titanium.
It had take apart construction for cleaning, oiling, and blade changes.
It had a belt clip.
It had a field tool.
It had extra screws so the knife could be configured with or without the tool and/or clip.
The handles were cast in molds in a conveyor oven with a controlled atmosphere. The oven was a large and expensive piece of equipment. Buck farmed the work out. When the subcontractor's plant burned down, that was the end of molded handle Buck knives (186 & 560).
The holes in the handle slabs lowered the cool down time and reduced shrinkage. If you look at the insides of the handles, which faced up during the molding process, you can see a slightly uneven surface caused by shrinkage.
The molding process also left a skin on the slabs which makes it hard to get an even coloration when anodizing them.
The field tool was a little rattly, but you could put it on your keychain.
