The Sunday Picture Show... (5-18-2014)

What a deal.....maybe the factory marked that out, maybe the catalog number changed and those were older boxes...likely something common sense.....300

Thought I would put up my Buck with a pepper picture also. 415 with Tabasco peppers (I think).

 
Wow what a fantastic show of Buck knives everyone has to share this week. Nice pictures and nice knives.

Thanks again Armand for bringing us this great opportunity for everyone to show their Bucks and tell their stories. The stories are always very interesting and great to hear.

This week I have a group of small Buck folders which I ended up when I purchased a collection from a retired Buck employee a couple years ago.

Thank you all for the rich Sunday feast of eye candy fellas. Oohh la la.

Art In Stone produced Lapis Lazuli (solid stones from Afghanistan) inlayed 110 shown with a rough Lapis Lazuli stone, also from Afghanistan. Wet here today. Got some on me.





The little blue-headed Lazuli Bunting goes nicely with the Lapis Lazuli 110 and the Lapis Lazuli stone, plus some other wildlife from this past week in my neck of the woods:

Like the blue handled buck too. What the name of that little blue bird and the red eyed duck in the pictures. Never seen them before. Getting off topic but hears a duck i saw today standing on one foot with it's head stuffed between it's wings.

Lazuli Bunting is its name. About the size of a sparrow but way more skittish.

Oregon, Lapis Lazuli, well there's a stone for the ages an painters....Nice layout.

Kind of hard to come by now-a-days due to the unpleasantness in the region. I've seen photos of one of the mines and lethal booby traps (IEDs, a stuffed toy bunny, for example) along the mountainous trail leading to it. I like blue, deep blue, but this stone is somewhat porous so polishing usually uncovers pits and some can be large and surprising to the diligent stone worker.
 
Great picture show so far and still plenty of time for more to be added.

Oregon, Great knife and absolutely fantastic wildlife pictures as usual.

Yesterday I got this surprise knife in the mail from Buck Knives. While at the 25th Anniversary event in Post Falls this past Summer. Marilee Houser (Joe's Wife) talked me into giving her a special item I had that had sentimental value to her and her family in exchange for a knife from Joe Houser. It was the knife I received yesterday. A vintage 2 line inverted 120 that has been factory restored with African Bubinga wood handles. It will be a great addition to my collection. Thank you Buck Knives and Joe Houser.

Oregon, Sorry for the poor quality photo, I may have better from this winter. I was shooting through a double payne glass with plastic over it with a 24X85 Nikor lens...these birds are very skiddish! here.
They love our Holly Bushes and clean out of berries every winter.

No time for new pictures so here is a repost from a prior picture show....

The SawBuck model 154 was new for 1987 and carried in the catalog thru 1999. It has a Kraton handle and a blade a little over 10" long with coarse teeth on one edge and fine on the other. If ever a blade needed a sheath liner this is it. The teeth are aggressive and offset. It is impossible to slide these saws in and out of the snug fitting sheaths without shreading leather. Going by catalog pictures, the full flap over sheath only appears in 1987. In 1988 and 1989 the saw comes with a black nylon sheath. I have never seen the nylon sheath but can understand it not being around long knowing how hard this saw is on the leather sheath. In 1990 the catalog shows us back with a leather sheath, this time with an open top and a keeper strap. The open top sheath is shown in the catalog until the end in 1999.
