The Sunday Picture Show... (6-28-2020) . . . (OLD Show Look at the DATE...)

Nice knives guys.
Thanks for the show once again ITE.
I hope all is well with everyone here, there's some disheartening news from across the country with the Covid thing. We closed down for quite awhile here in Michigan, I hope it pays off.

I really like the shape of these 113's. Small, but very capable.
My first Buck was a used 113 I found and they are probably still one of my favorites.

Thanks ITE for this SPS, thanks to all the Buck fans that post photos and comment.

2002 was Buck's 100th year. To signify this special year Buck used a special tang stamp, the anvil, they also had a coin, medallion, and special pad printing/engravings.

Buck had many special factory issues during the year. I started to accumulate some, it got to involved and money ran out. I did manage to get a few.

Since the 'theme' of today's SPS seems to be 110s...these 110s show how the production changed/varied in tang stamp and medallion usage.

From top to bottom...

In 2001, likely toward the end of the production year there were some with the 100 year medallion, with the 2001 tang stamp. During the 2002 production there were some produced with and without the medallion. Then during the 2003 production there were some with the 2003 tang stamp that had the 100 year medallion. There might be others that have different 100 year 110 variations...

Fantastic knives everyone. I am going to cover 2 themes today with the 110 and some scrimshaw by Dale Fisk.

Dale did a seminar at the BCCI 30th Anniversary get together at the Buck factory about his scrimshaw work and his relationship with Buck Knives.
Dale is a super nice guy and extremely talented.

I happen to have the 923/110 set he was talking about. I also have the Indian Skinner set but will post pics of them at a later date.

Today I am showing another piece of amazing art done for me by Mr. Fisk
This is a 1974-80 model 112.
Old Native American and I quote the following by Mr. Fisk .
“First of all, human faces are the ultimate . Second, all the wrinkles of older faces and hands have a lot of detail, which is both a challenge and what I love about scrimshaw. ”
