We are knifemakers?

It was the intent of the Knifemaker to leave the discoloring beyond the chip flinted area.

Fair enough, I see it now looking back at the stock photos, but this area really detracts from the overall effect.

I thought those were just shadows in a typical, at times, bad Buck knife picture. (I didn't buy one, just voicing an opinion).

Bummer! I'd be more than happy to take that off your hands and give it a go with a Scotch pad.

The 112's you and @pat9198 posted look incredible!

The wood grain is amazing, and it has to be one of the best-gripping 124 handles I have held to date.

I agree on the blade, but dang, what a nice piece of wood.

Very nice!
Especially when there's few factory custom Vanguards.

Thank you, all.

I should have picked up a 192 as well. I skipped it because I'm not a huge fan of shokwood. But that one looks pretty sweet.

I received this one yesterday. No complaints.

Photo of the 192 Shockwood in sunlight…
Tough to photograph and get the shimmer to show!

The Andrew Avoux polished 110 is interesting. Very well made. I think a different stand that provides more contrast might do a better job of showcasing it, but that's a minor thing.

The bigger item is that I'm not sure I can actually use it. How soft are the aluminum scales? My guess is that if it's in a pocket with anything else it's going to pick up wear fairly quickly. A pocket slip might work, but it's a good-sized knife. Perhaps it's just desk jewelry like most of the knives that are bought by collectors.

Well, that didn't take long ... All the same seller ...

 

[MT_Pokt]

Not me... yet!

I ordered the 124, 119, and the stag 112. Shortly after placing the order, I attempted to cancel the order... Twice... Obviously, I didn't try hard enough..lol

None of these are keepers for me, though I really like how the 124 feels, and I think I made out petty good with the ironwood!

If you plan to sell off the 112, please direct message me, Thanks

Otherwise, I am sure Buck would allow you to return any of all or them for a full refund (minus shipping)
