This was my first Buck purchased around 1969. I spent a lot of time in the forests back then and I used and somewhat abused my 119 for years.

When I found bladeforums and the Buck forum, I contacted Joe, who facilitated my sending the knife in for a new handle to replace the phenolic which I had managed to crack by throwing it! Figured it would be nice to replace the phenolic with sambar stag if possible, and i'm glad I did.

Just got this one this week to mod. I love the clear blue color but hated the blade. However I will say this, ergonomically the blade felt very good, it just don't look good. The thumb studs felt cumbersome and immediately noticed the difference when they were gone without thinking about it. I don't care for serrations either so next thing will be to swap the blade with a normal 444.
The photo of the two does not do the color justice so I posted a single picture of it which represents the color properly.

To keep with the light, here is my EDC a 486 in a .25L mug. Last week I also used a mug from Ulm, Germany, also known as the place Herbert is from.

Very nice guys! ITE, picked up a Goliath awhile back for about $20. Like yours it had no sheath but shows very little signs of use. It's currently my truck knife. Picked up another one with sheath the other day that should be here tomorrow. Great knife and underappreciated IMHO though in all fairness I think they were only made for 2, perhaps three years IIRC.
 
Here is a nice Buck 426 c.1988 I found at the Flea Market last month. This one is interesting because it has a partially serrated blade, a feature I've not seen on this model before. Black stitching on a black sheath doesn't show very well.

I am a little late posting this morning. I finished a 100 mile century bicycle ride yesterday. I haven't rode my bicycle that far in a while so I'm enjoying a slow Sunday morning and an extra pot of coffee. :)

There are probably a million of these 1995 Buck 110s out there, but this one became extra special this week. The story is that while I was having dinner last weekend at my daughter-in-law's home. My grandson brought out an old 20 gauge breakdown that my son had refinished for him along with a compound bow my son built up special for him.

He was really proud of these things. That started me thinking about how he needed a knife to go along with them, so I came home and found my best 1995 110 that I had (his birth year). I took it into the garage and shined it up. I also took extra time to sharpen it and even put it on my smooth leather strop which I normally don't do. I find my rough leather strop is more than sufficient.

Anyways....that baby is sharp!! I offered lifetime sharpening to him also as long as his Grandpa Stumps is alive. :p

Hi All,

Thanks for a very nice SPS this week. I'm stuck away from home as it was a working weekend:(, it's been snowing off and on, so this show is the only bright spot for the day...so keep the photo's comming:thumbup:. As I'm not home no new photo's from me.....sorry guys. I'll post some borrowed photo's from an auction I forgot about and did not win. I could not find any info on this LE knife in the list, the list only had a pad print listed and this one is gold and very cool (did anyone here win this one?)

Hi Armand,

The listing was for $150 BIN or best offer, I offered $100 and got no response. I expected a counter offer, I was going to offer $125 at the end of the auction and forgot about it. The selling price was $115, I have never seen this etch before and the only LE listing for Red Jacket Pumps is for a 1988 black pad print. Maybe they just missed this one on the list or this could be a sales sample that never made it to full production.

Garryale, I like your two cent... Cool picture...

Longbow, I could use some of your pens... Cool pics of them...

Peter, that's a good looking 119... It looks better in Stag... I think...

St8yd, I don't care for that blade either on the 444s... But it looks alot better now... But like you said a 424 or a 501 blade would look better... I'm going to do the same thing... Well, I'll have Leroy do it for me... If you could, post some pics of it on I was feeling a little lite today, that would be cool... If you want to, that is... Thanks

Edbeau, that's a cool picture of your 486...

Gladiator, now that's some nice looking Big Stag handle knives you got there... Just Sweet....

DeSky, now that's a Bucklite I don't have yet with that partially serrated blade... Cool... I what one... If you could post some of your pics of it on my post, I was feeling a little lite today, that would be cool... Thanks...

Stumps, the 110 looks great... I bet your son loves that knife...

Hk, sweet 317s you got there...

Thanks for sharing everyone... Keep the pics coming... ITE ... :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
 
I had no time to take a new picture. Here's an old one.

Best, Haebbie
