Thanks Roger for the Sunday Picture Show. I went into the pile looking for a small Buck knife. This was all I could come up with.View attachment 2000342

New Berlin and Springfield, we are practically neighbors. I’m an hour west of Springfield in Beardstown IL.

Definitely neighbors. I will always be "from" Arenzville.

Two more for the show picked up yesterday.

Thanks for another Sunday Picture Show. Thanks to all for posting photos and comments. For this SPS I'm showing the 700s that I have acquired.

The first photo are OEM, a 303 , a 704 and a 709 that I received as a gift in the early eighties.

The second photo has a stag 705, a 703 with pad printed clip blade with ducks and a shield engraved with a sitting duck and a MOP handled 704, I found, a couple of weeks ago, on another site in their for sale section.
I wasn't sure what I was looking at, at first, but I could see the script tang stamp. The price was real reasonable so i took a chance and bought it. After the deal was done I PM'ed Roger, he said he hadn't seen one before, but that he would have bought it. I checked the old Buck custom shop listing and didn't see a 704 listed and this one is not numbered. It is well done so I'm assuming it was done by a craftsman, but unmarked.

The 700 series is another set I didn't think I needed to collect until somewhat recently. Much like the 300 series I didn't think I cared for all that much when I started collecting. Here's a minty Schrade contract 301 I was lucky to run into yesterday at a local show..........

Awesome show! This reminded me about a BCCI newsletter I read awhile ago. I had to dig a bit, but Larry Oden has a great article in the June 2003 newsletter about the 700 series.
