Thank you, Armand for another picture show. My small part is the prototype of the 118 with the wooden handle. This model didn't become a production knife at its time.

Always nice to see Bucklites and Buck 118 Personal's on the SPS. Here is a Buck 422 (Bucklite one-dot) I bought yesterday at a gunshow. OH

Nice find OH. Here is my well-loved 422 that my dad bought for me in 1984. I was 6 years old. I carried it quite often when I was a teenager. Now it sits in a drawer waiting for my son to come of age.


And since this is my first contribution to the Sunday Picture Show, I would also like to show off this like new 501 from '78-'79 that I just got.
 
m.and, welcome to the SPS - nice knives you have there! I've been on the BCCI site and digging around a few books, as well as the internet, trying to find out what the one dot on the right side of the model number means. I note that your blade doesn't have the dot - which I think makes your knife a bit older than mine. Glad to have you posting here. OH
 
Thanks to everyone for posting these great buck pictures. Here is a 112 I got recently. It was sent into buck for a re blade and repair. Buck said the wood and brass was too bad to repair and recommended the solution you see in the knife. I think it turned out great. Guess it is a 112/422 BUCK BRASS LITE. I should have polished it before taking the picture.

Thanks for the warm welcome OH. If I remember correctly the dot on these models may have had something to with the change to fine blanking the blades or possibly the change to 425M steel (though '84-'85 seems a little late for that). I'm pretty sure mine is from the first year of production (1984) which means yours is probably from 1985 (since the next year would have had the < date stamp for 1986).
 
For something a little different this week I have a pre-factory model 106 "Hunting & Fishing Knife". It is a medium/small knife with a 4-7/8" blade and 9-1/4" OAL. The handle is Lignum Vitae and David Martin tells me that material was used from about 1951 to 1955. Interestingly, Lignum Vitae is so dense that it is a wood that does not float.

A model 424 BuckLite in white Valox c.1989 with a "Scrimshaw" deer scene. Buck calls it scrimshaw but the image is actually printed on.

Tara and I went for a nice ATV ride along side a lake and then to overlooking Cranbrook B.C. The first Buck Knife I ever had came along. The trusty 119. I hope those that went to Blade had a good time and that those who haven't been get to go soon!



 
Another Lancer for the show to go along with Vaporstang's nice pictures. Found this little 305 yesterday. An earlier Camillus manufactured knife with the model number stamped on the backside of the clip blade. Also notice the frame recess notch for the secondary blade. Paperwork dates it to about 1972 or soon after.

Herbert, what is the wood of your handle? It looks like Ironwood or is it a laminate Dymondwood?

Love that knife and beautiful handle! And 1950s vintage to boot!

Nice find! Yours seems to be in slightly better condition than mine - LOL!

Yes but your Lancer has led a more "honest" life doing what a knife should do while mine has been hiding in a drawer somewhere... ;o)

Today an old photo, and no sun just rain and possible Tornado
Thanks for the photo's 1 and all



Might as well throw a 124 in as well

 
Evening gents.

Been mostly a lurker on this form with only a thread or two and a few posts. Thought it was time to share a few pics.

I just finished a 5 month Provincial Search and Rescue certification, and at the end of the course is a two day SAR/survival test. I chose my 119 as my primary blade for that test, and it functioned flawlessly.

Ultimately, I used it to tension cut and limb roughly a half dozen alder saplings. I had a saw with me, but it was far quicker and easier to use my 119.

A quick in action pic...



After I got home.



Does it clean up nicely or what? :thumbup:
