I really like the vantage.
Problem is I have to buy them online, no chance to handle/inspect them
Even so in Europe they cost at the very least 3 times as much.
So I'm better of buying one outside Europe and paying little extra shipping costs.
But if I get a bad one I'm screwed.
I hope Buck will announce when they have fixed the problems (tiny nylon washers, pivot screws, travelling liner) because otherwise it would be a shame of this nice design.
If the word is out, I only need to wait until most of the old stock is sold.
If I could return a default knife without any loss I wouldn't have a problem with it.
But if I think it through, the knife can be perfect at first but because of the tiny washers develop problems during use later on.
This knife deserves better.
