Hello everyone, it's time again for the Sunday Picture Show... This Show is for everyone... So feel free to talk about and compliment each other about there new or old Buck knives... We all like to show are new or older knives that we just got or had for years... So everyone please share and post a picture of one of your Buck knives or a picture with lots of Buck knives... Fixed blades or folders... Post all the pictures you want, but save some for next Sundays Picture Show... Post a new picture or a old picture... If you only have one Buck knife or alot of Buck knives... Just take some new Picture of it or of them and just get creative and make Buck Proud... Thanks, ItsTooEarly ...

Here's my pictures for the SPS... This Sunday I have a cool V52 - 429BK Selector... I was told
that they come with a sheath and just a black handle knife and no blade... I got 4 of them but
the boxes I have are for the Orange one and a green one and the black one... I need to know what
Sheath came with each different color one and paper work... Thanks

Armand, I am always impressed about your staying power to start the SPS (GSOE) every week since felt 20 years. Thank You!! My small part this week is the Ducks Unlimited Sheath I found five years ago in the dump bin of the Buck plant. I am sure that the large part is for the 102. but the small part? Has anybody an idea what fits ito this sheath? Many thanks for any answer.

ITE, sheaths and paperwork and boxes! You mean that there is more stuff to find and then get!!!

RGT, the 50th anniversary 110 regular production is outstanding and American as apple pie.

Haebbie, flowers! Evidence of Spring.

Three Selectors (all of the factory colors) and all 10 of the factory blade shapes, plus Bald Eagles with female hunkered down in massive nest on egg(s) due to hatch last week in March and male alone in old oak snag (evidence of Spring):

Nice collection of blades ITE & especially Oregon - do you have a handle for each blade? Haebbie, I have a black sheath (somewhere) that was made for the 501 - looks very similar in size and shape to the one attached to your fixed blade sheath. Rip Gut, as soon as I see one of the 50th 110's at a local shop I will have one - nice!

I found a brass bolstered Buck 303 with wood handles and the alternate Buck shield at one of my favorite duck hunting shops this past week. I plan to go back and get the 309 and the 305 on my next couple of trips through the area. OH

Thank you you for your kind words. That is a terrific 300 series you've acquired. Congratulations.

I now have all of the factory made Selector blade shapes, of which there are ten, after many years of hunting and pecking about.

I have a few spare handles but no where near ten. I just wanted one of each color of regular production One-blade Selectors

The 428 Selector, earlier model, (two blade) isn't on my radar.

Oregon, a great picture with the Bald Eagle :) :)

Here's European Wildlife:

A single Crane. That means that tere is a nest of eggs with another Crane in the near.
That is roundabout 300 yards away from our house.

Thank you, Old Hunter, for the information. I'll try it out.

ITE, thanks for another SPS! :)

Oregon, congrats on getting your mitts on that skinner blade! Good things come to those that wait, and watch, and hunt them down like a bloodhound on a trail! :p :D

This week I'll share a couple of 2 dot 112's here...




one of these things is not like the other...



 
Haebbie, now that is a huge bird. Similar to our Sandhill Cranes found only in certain spots in this neck of the woods (Sauvie Island, in the Columbia River near Portland, for example). What fun to be able to see such terrific wildlife from the comfort of your home. Lucky.

Sit, those are comfortable, like favorite shoes, beauties. Anatomical and curvy. One has been on quite a diet, cutting down on the brass.

I really like how thin this 521 is. Here you see it with some similar sized folders:





 
Wow oregon, that 521 is a fantastic looking knife, it would just disappear into a pocket and go unnoticed till needed!

here's another snapshot of my 112...



this one rides pretty comfortable in my jeans pocket.

Managed finding this lil gem in a pile of other blades in an antique shop. A few minutes of sanding and a steel brush and it is good as new. :)

Included for fun: Here is my set of each generation of 110 that I can recall. Of course I am missing the original model that is way out of my reach. :)

Kyui, 107 or Empress Trio paring knife with script tang stamp or steak knife? What a find!! Something to shout about. Real fun to see 110s thru the ages all in a neat row. Great photo. Thank you.

Sitflyer, thank you and yes, spot on observations, it carrier like smoke on the wind.

Great picture show going on everyone and a special thanks to Armand for starting this thread every Sunday just like clockwork. I have always liked the selectors and it is nice to see a picture with a complete set of all the blades that were available. Thanks Oregon and ITE. I also like those slim stainless handled Buck's. They fit great in the pocket and you don't even know it is there. I carry a small 525 stainless in my pocket every day. With all the knives I have you would think I would carry something fancier but I love my little stainless 525. It does everything I want and is strong as heck.

For my wildlife picture I have some pictures that I took while out crabbing last October just inside the mouth of the Columbia River just out from the end of Fort Stevens Park. We put out boat in at Hammond and while returning after crabbing to Hammond we found these elk swimming across from the Washington side. The river is very cold and a bit rough and about 5 miles or so wide right there. They would not go ashore while we were there so we left them alone. A few months later we stayed at a house in Long Beach which is pretty much straight across from where we saw the elk swimming and found a dead 5 point Bull Elk about 30 or so yards from the beach where it was washed up. Kind of wonder if it was one of the ones we saw that did not make it during another crossing. There were bulls, cows, and some calves together as seen in the pictures.

Thought I would re-post pictures of my 112 that doesn't have matching scales. I think it is great because if you get tired of one side, flip it over.



 
I have enough handles to cover the 10 factory Selector blades, but that defeats the purpose. The object of the Selector is to increase the ratio of blades to handles so as to reduce the volume and weight of the carry.View attachment 420011
