Update: Buck Combo Knife Gift Tins

[Happy Hippo]

Last year, I reported what I found out about Buck knives that come in combo-packages with gift/collector tins. These sets are typically commissioned to Buck from companies like Walmart, Tractor Supply, Cabela, Big 5, Canadian Tire, Menards, Dick's Sporting Goods, etc. I have done a lot more research and so I am making a new thread, rather than update the old thread. I know a lot of people aren't interested in these but this is for the people who might be and would want to take advantage of the work I've done. If you see any errors or omissions, or if you have any of the ones I am missing, please let me know. I'd like my "database" to be accurate. I've also included the Remington ones that were made by Buck.

I see one error, already. The 373/379 one that I say is missing, I have right to the left of it.

Impressive collection. I have a few tins,after I get them unpacked I will see if I have any you don't have.

A neat Buck Knives collecting niche - looks like you have done an outstanding job. OH

Another niche that I've done was to collect all the knives Buck made under the Remington brand. I am missing only 4, I think. I showed the tins here but I have almost all of the folders and fixed blades too.

That is quite the collection. I have the 425/482 set. What a deal for two American-made Bucks, including the classic mini-Buck 425.

Here are a couple I didn't see in your collection. 110s in the tins. I will look for more later.

Thanks, but this list only covers combo tins. That is, tins with more than one knife. I do have a few tins, like yours, with one knife in them but I haven't been actively pursuing them. Typically, those tins have 110s or 112s in them. Probably my favorite single knife tin is the one for the orange "topo" Slim select. But I also like the Boone and Crockett one, which you are showing.

I was just thinking how cool it would be to have a display of these on the wall! Even with narrow shelves set close together it would fill a room..

Nice to see some one else collecting these. I have every combo tin I know of that had a slippie in it.
Would you consider sharing your master model code list so I can compare with?

I have it on a spreadsheet. Is that want you want? Of course I would share that. I developed the list by searching through internet sites. I am not guaranteeing that it is complete. I would prefer to know the part number for every one. On a lot of them that I bought open, I am not sure of the part number. [Example of part number: CMBO201WM-C]. I found some errors in what I posted in regard to the Canadian Tire Exclusives. I wonder if any other non-usa company did exclusive tins?

I also collect the combo sets that are not in tins but rather on clamshell cards. I haven't done as much research on those.
