Nice as always Armand! Thanks for the SPS.

Here is a set of Alaskan gold, issued 25 years apart (426 1984, 110 2009).

Not much to say about this one except that is pays to stop and look in out of the way places. Found this one in a farm supply store. Never saw this sheath with a 110 before. It is nylon and fits well. The tag on the back says 460.

My small part to the greatest show on earth ...

The great hunter with Mastodon ivory scales freshly back from SPA. Thank you Joe!!

Thanks ITE for starting another SPS!! :thumbup:

Looks like a good start to this one already.

I was "Buck'in" around with some of my knives yesterday. I sewed a couple more knife cases and was filling them up when I came across this beauty. I don't remember where I got it or how long I've had it, but I was pleasantly surprised when I saw it. I find I love stag more all the time....and this one has some really nice stag!!

I was on a bicycle ride recently and ran across this Coral snake. He was one of the largest Coral snakes I've seen....measuring in at precisely 32.14 inches long from his head to the tip of his tail.

Nice 110 Stumps! Thanks for the photo's, very nice stag.

Coral Snake: "Red and black friend of Jack, red and yellow kill the fellow"! Did you give the little guy a kiss?

Food for thought:
"The bite of a coral snake may soon become increasingly more dangerous, ironically because of the relatively few bites each year. Production of coral snake antivenom in the United States has ceased because it is not profitable. According to Pfizer, the owner of the company that used to make Coralmyn, it would take over $5–$10 million to put toward researching a new synthetic antivenom. The cost was just too large for the small number of cases presented each year. The current antivenom stock expired in 2010, after two consecutive expiration date extensions approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Foreign pharmaceutical manufacturers have produced other coral snake antivenoms, but the costs associated with licensing them in the United States have stalled availability (see above). Instituto Bioclon is developing a coral snake antivenom."

JB, that's some sweet Alaskan gold you got... I still need the first one...

Haebbie, you just got to love that Mastodon ivory on that 4 dot 110...

DSS, that's a nice serrated 110... Mine came with a different sheath... I'll post a pic in a few...

Stumps, I love the stag handles on that BG-42 110 you got... You can send that one to me anytime...
Boy I always wanted to catch a Coral Snake, when I was into snakes... All we have here in CA are the CA mountain king snakes...

You guys have some sweet Buck knives... Thanks for sharing... ITE ... :thumbup:

I guess I shouldn't have measured him so precisely!!

Nah...didn't measure him, but he was one of the largest ones I've seen. Probably close to the measurements I gave. I've seen lots of those buggers here in FL too.

Boy are you wrong Armand.....CA has a whole bunch of snakes. It's true we don't have any native coral snakes....we do have plenty of Rattlers in the hillsides and mountains and a ton of other non-venomous snakes. My older brothers would go hunting rattlers, skin & clean them, then my Mom would cut them up, add shake & bake....not bad eating.

Oh, those King snakes get fat eating Rattlers!

As usual, a lot of great Bucks pictured. Thought I'd post a couple of early ones. I think there were less than 300 made that first year.

Now you're talkin'!! I LOVE the old 110's!! :thumbup:

That's the number I remember seeing somewhere. I think it was 284 or 286...sumthin' like that anyways.

JB, I was just taking about a the CA mountain king snakes and the coral snakes... Because the Mountain King looks like the coral snake... I know all about the others snakes... I just never caught a coral snake... My friend and I use to go snake hunting and catch all kinds of snakes... Lots of different rattlers and all good to eat for sure...

 

[ItsTooEarly]

Scott, sweet 110s you got there... I sure wish I had one... Someday I hope... :thumbup: ...

Man, some real beauties this week guy's:thumbup:
Stumps, I can see many reasons why you like that one so much...not only is the stag beautiful, but the pin job looks cool, and the blade!
Love that snake skin 111 jb :thumbup:
Haebbie, thanx for showing those sweet Mastodon scales to us :thumbup:

Here's another shoot of my 308 Canoe...
Thank You all for the spectacular photos that I see here every week, and in the Buck Forum in general...they have been the inspiration and motivation that pushed me to figure out this digital photography stuff...

 

[jb4570]

Very nice Sit,

I have never seen one of those in stag! Sweet......!

Desoto, looked up the Buck 460 on the bay and I guess you got a ? box, 460 Gamut sheath and a 110 knife with Idaho stamp. I like the teeth on the knife.
