I hadn't paid much attention to them , but those are really cool.
I like the blade shape :thumbup:

My Vantage Force Pro arrived today. It's a very attractive knife (at least to me). Very sharp out of the box. I really like the thumb ramp. Very pleased...besides...it matches my new truck!

Do what?

 

[imafritz]

Do what?

You messin with me?....change colors of course.

 

[2TONYB]

Change colors? I don't know what you mean...the vantage force pro has blue on it...is that what you mean?

 

[imafritz]

well the blade should be black instead of gray and every pic I have seen the g-10 is very black with blue highlite.

Fritz. I would call my blade gun metal gray, definitely not black. As far as the handle color goes, maybe it's just lighting differences in the pics.

great feedback on this knife. I really like how the blade shape adds weight to the blade, meshed with the grip texture on the flipper make it a very consistent openner. I am carrying a pro-Lux right now like a good new product advocate I have to be but I Really Like the vantage force series. When the dust settles think the Vantage Force Pro will become my EDC

Man I thought you were messin with me, and had done some computer touch up on it to make it match the truck. I hope my blade is that color. It is listed as black oxide and I dont ever recall seeing that other than jet black. Thats a cool color combo.

I think you hit a homerun with the Force CJ:thumbup:, do you know how long before they will be available on the Buck website?

Yep, Buck is "over the fence and in the parking lot" with this series!!!!

There sure seems to be a big difference in the way the two pictures look.

Personally I like the way Tonys looks :thumbup:

I do love that dymondwood look Been thinking of switching the handles off to my pro but I have no idea what taking a vantage apart is like.

Haven't done it, but the current issue of Knives Illustrated has an article on the Vantage line by Abe Elias that shows one he completely disassembled and he said it was easy.

I may have to swing by the book store and check that one out!
