[ItsTooEarly]

Looking good everyone... Keep the pictures coming...

Thanks you, ITE

Took a look around, this is the earliest "fishing" knife I could find in the cabinet. It is the model 106 Hunting/Fishing Knife. Just under a 5" blade and 9 1/4" overall. Lignum Vitae handle c. 1951-1955. I would describe it as a "Pommel Nut"... Original sheath stinks horribly of tobacco smoke.

Here's my fishing knife.

[ItsTooEarly]

Here's my oldest one...







Nice one Roger...

Those fishing knives are pretty cool.

 

[kyhunt]

kyhunt, You don't need anything fancy here... We like all Buck knives...
That's a nice 105 by the way and Happy Birthday... Cool pictures

Thanks.

Last one today and just for fun. This one gives you a spoon to eat your beans if the fish weren't biting.....

Thank you ITE for the show. As always a great show. I would like to see in person one of the 121 with the scalers. My newest 110, I believe a III-4, should it have the rocker pin exposed?

Hi guy's thanks for the awesome photo's of you scaler fishing/hunting knives. They are truly eye candy looking at the knives of the past. Roger, you can clean your old sheath with water and saddle soap, then re-oil it.

Here is the only 121 with scaler I have, it was reworked by McKinney Elk tip added.

You think? It is pretty fragile, I don't even keep the knife in it.

Is anyone else finding the quoting function awkward to use?

Just picked up from my buddy Craig, Ironwood Strider.

Yes. Another forum I visit sometimes has the same set up. Took me awhile to get it right. Have to hit quote and then hit reply.

The Buck with the spoon in the handle is really rare. .I found one on ebay for cheep 5 years ago or so and traded with a forum member who collects them. If I remember correctly Joe said they were made for salmon fishermen and less than 900 were made. Other than mine that is the only one that I have seen. It went cheep on ebay because the seller thought it was a homemade modification. I did too but I took it to the Blade show and Joe filled me in.

They look like it. I have one but have never used the spoon.

I can just imagine watching a Buck employee cutting off the handles of close to a thousand spoons. ..

 

[DeSotoSky]

I was trolling for response, as bucksway says, most people think it is a joke. The fillet knife with the gut spoon is the same size as the 123 LakeMate and is designated the model 129. It was in the general catalog from 1989 to 1991. Pretty scarce as I don't think I see even one a year. /Roger
