Hope you enjoy it. Turning someone on to a good book is a good feeling ☺️
Unless of course they don't like it. Then you have to wonder what's wrong with them 😜

I was going to go to that Washington knife show, but I'm going to have to pass this time. I like the deal in the aisle type deals :thumbsup:

My latest acquisition is this charcoal 303. This one is more yellowish/goldish/greenish and less gray than my other charcoals. Cleaned up nice :thumbsup:

I don't know why I'm just now following your thread, Roger. Nonetheless I'm hooked now. Beautiful knives and I love your history lesson along with all the poster's comments. I have nothing to offer to this thread as far as pictures go. I only have 3 Buck knives. My newest 110 which I'm sure a lot of you are prolly getting tired of seeing, a Buck 110 Slim and an older 110 that's seen better days.
Thanks to all of you.

Thank you, I try to keep it fun and interesting. People always appreciate comments about their knives so feel free to add to the conversations.
 
Continuing the theme... Back in the 1990s we lived in Idaho. One year we did a fairly extensive tour of the Lewis and Clark trail in Montana and Idaho. For me, one of the most memorable spots was Lemhi Pass. Just below the pass, Trail Creek emerges from the ground. An interpretive sign there explained that Meriwether Lewis wrote: "...McNeal had exultingly stood with a foot on each side of this little rivulet and thanked his god that he had lived to bestride the mighty & heretofore deemed endless Missouri." I grabbed an empty soda bottle with a screw top, rinsed it, and filled it with water from "the headwaters of the Missouri." I still have that bottle today, still full. I can't say for sure, but the only Buck knife that I owned at that time was my 703 Colt, and I always carried it, so I suspect that it was with me that day.

Thanks Roger for another SPS and the history lesson about Lewis and Clark. What a trip up the Missouri River that must have been. That definitely would have been a trip of a lifetime!

I’ve had quite a few vintage 105s but most all of them are gone. This 105 is the only one I have left.
