The Sunday Picture Show (March 10th, 2024)

[DeSotoSky]

Hello and welcome to the Sunday Picture Show. Share your Buck knives with others by posting pictures of them here. New or old, plain or custom, user or safe queen, one or a collection, we love to see them all. This weekly tradition was started in 2010 by ItsTooEarly (Armand Hernandez) and Oregon (Steve Dunn). Help keep the tradition alive. Feel free to click that 'LIKE' but lets not let it replace discussing and complimenting each others knives. DeSotoSky (Roger Yost)

March 10th

While the forum admins sort out the future of image posting for the overachievers like myself, I am able to re-post images I've already uploaded to the forum in the past. To that end I decided to revert all the way to the beginning and the very first images I posted as a forum newbie on June 26, 2011. Although images in that original post are lost to the failed Photobucket links I was fortunate to have re-posted the images in more recent times.
addendum... I got to thinking about it and now that I know how I went back and reloaded these images into that first 2011 post. Unfortunately, it would not be practical to do the same for all 1600 lost Photobucket links.

This pair had followed me home from a Gun Show and represent some of the earliest knives acquired as a beginning Buck knife collector.
2005 119 Special and a 2002 650 Nighthawk.

members posting on the SPS- The SPS is vey appreciated!!!!!!- I start thinking on Monday what can I put on here as I do not have the collections you all have but I have my share, all the posters are treasured as you are .
Not a sentimental message but Thank You ----- Pete

Here is the old and the new - My pics stink - sooner or later they will get better.

In a recent post Old Hunter referred to this as the "essential knives concept"
The trifecta of knives that could do everything you would need a knife for.
His notion about that stuck with me.

Thank you! It has been a lot of fun (work) for me and glad it is appreciated.
Your pictures are fine, thank you for contributing.

Here’s one for pack your lunch day. You’d need a big lunchbox for this one. Coming in at 17 inches long. You can cut their head off or club them to death. I have many Frank knives but this might be my favorite.

The Nighthawks really got me back into collecting Buck knives. This is one of my favorites.

Some 112s.

Have any of you 112 collectors, bucksway . noticed a difference in frame length over the years. I ask because the two segua wood handled knives in these pictures have a 1/16 inch shorter frame than the ebony handled knife. 4 1/4 inches compared to 4 5/16 inches.

O.B.

thanks Roger and y'all, for the show today.

The concept of essential knives has been around a long time, same applies to a battery of firearms. longbow1968 your Dad had some nice working knives. Roger, I’m flattered that the idea made an impression on you. This is the picture I think I posted at the time. Happy SPS Buck folks! OH

 

[Old Hunter]

The original picture (my old tablet has gotten to where it won’t let me put the picture where I want it to be!) The yellow 303 belongs to John now, I need to reshoot this picture. OH

 

[Old Hunter]

This picture, while quite old, contains a trio of 1970's Buck Knives that are my first of each model and all are still in my possession and use. OH

 

[wonderboy1377s]

Happy Sunday Everyone! How about a trifecta of some stag/Elk



And a trifecta of BCCI fixed blades

 

[eveled]

When the subject of the perfect essential knives comes up. I can’t help but think of this group I bought from EBAY I think they’ve been together their entire lives. Same vintage same wear same sharpening.

Obviously someone’s perfect trifecta of knives plus the hatchet. When I opened the box and looked at them. I felt a connection to the person I never met and know nothing about. How strange is that?

 

[Midnight Rider]

Many thanks to Roger and everyone for another great SPS! I look forward to this every week.

Happy SPS

I too look forward to the SPS every week

A couple of left over pics from last week's 303 fest.

Good Morning Roger and Gents. A recent find at the Bunker Hill Knife Club Show. I believe it is a Duke from the old Custom Shop, maybe early/mid eighties? The sheath was purchased separately, however it may be period correct.......

 

[Old Hunter]

matthewtstock what a fantastic Buck Knife and very fortunate find! OH
