Well I broke down and bought a new vanguard this week.Getting ready
for Deer season. Can someone please tell me where I can find
the codes for how old a Buck knife is.I looked on the buck Knife sight and can not find it. Thanks again, Now I am up to 5 Buck knives this year.
Jeff:eek:
 
No Pack Rat I got the regular one. Sorry. I got it at Gander Mountion in Tyler.
Thanks you to Goose. That is what I did . I didnot scroll down enough.
I really like the way it the vanguard fits in your hand.I also like the drop
point.

And never, ever, be sorry for buying any Buck knife.

or is it scale? Anyway I like all 5 of them.Goose did you cut that cats ear off?

I headed out to Gander Mt earlier and got as far as the click, click of the truck ignition. Batteries are both dead I guess. Was gonna get some of the $2.99 corn and brouse the knives and guns. So new batteries in the morning and then Gander. Its an 01 and original batteries... I have been expecting it.
Least will have new ones going into hunting season.

You will like the Vanguard:thumbup: :thumbup:

Watch around, you can find them with the wood (BR) handle, black rubber, camo rubber, BLUE rubber handle, Buffalo handles, elk handles...
ionfusion blades :D serrated blades, buckcote blades...
laser cutouts, acid etches, engraved, the list goes on and on and on...:thumbup:
 
Yes, you sure want new ones for hunting season.Do you have a cabella's
in Houston? They did not have the s30v Vanguard at Gander mt.So I got the wood handle one like my brother-in-law has been crowing about for 3 or 4 years.I will try to break it ,the 103 , 119 and 110 Christmass tin , during
the first weeek of deer season.

Just buy 2 standard Vanguards with 420HC, Almost as good anyway and you wont be afraid to use them :D Probably cheaper too :)

S30V to me is too expensive for user/abuser...
:confused: overrated too:confused:
 
I ordered mine from Cabellas before I knew they had the one at Buda. I go by there some times. Is a Gander Mt about 5 mi from here. Usually too expensive for me tho. Unless you grab one of their sales. Last sale I grabbed a .17hmr NEF and then drove 30 miles out to Katy to Bass Pro and bought a scope... Go figure...:rolleyes:

Oh,,,got the rubber handle 192 for the user.

O.K.!!!!
But just so you know pack rat - ( I cant guarantee it wont get lost in the mail) :D

I have the Cabelas Guide series 110... I just cant use it...
Maybe when the Buck trade forum gets up and running I will trade for a Vanguard or zipper (AG)

Out of all my Buck Knives, all I ever use are the standard models, with the exception of Alpha Gut hook and possibly a Sirus GY... ATS-34 in these is reasonable but I just cant see using a $65.00 Cabelas 110 when my $20.00 wal mart special cuts just great!! Maybe not sharp as long but my Lansky works great!!! :D

I have a Vanguard woody that I lost. So, I guess I should've stated "I had a Vanguard woody".

Well, anyway, I went about a year and ordered another one. And guess what? It's in its' box and I just take it out and look at it. Standard steel. Nothing special except it being a beautiful knife.

You can thank The Rodent for the avatar pic(s). He get's some whack stuff out to me :)
No animals were harmed in the actual production of my avatars. Any animal displaying abnormal appearances were maimed from a pre-existing condition prior to my loving care. Your mileage may vary.
 
I know how you feel about looking at them.Goose. But I do plan to
use it for my deer hunting this year.
