Web Special "Tin Tacker Signs"

[DeSotoSky]

Received an email from BUCK this evening (7:08 Central) for these metal Buck signs. There are 6 different metal signs for $24.99 each. They can be found in the Accessories section under BUCK GEAR. Tried adding them to the cart, the BCCI discount did not apply. I wonder about the word "Tacker"?

I was at the Buck factory last week. They had all of the signs and some shirts that were not available via website at the time. I picked up one of the signs and some shirts. The signs feel like aluminum with a couple of small holes drilled thru for wall mounting. Can mount by putting a couple of small nails/screws in a wall and then hang the sign (tacking them to the wall?). Also picked up a couple of the 110 Folding Hunter Sport Teardown Mats.

I got that email, also got an email from Buck for a survey on kitchen knives......

I was miffed that the 112 n/S clip points didn't get discounted, because I was going to get a 110/112 set. But I added one of these undiscounted signs to just one 112 n/s clip point to get free shipping. I am weak. One sign, the red one, is already sold out.

I'm definitely going to be buying a couple of these signs, one for the shop and one to hang over my little Buck 305 cabinet.


I just saw the email.and was about to start a thread, but thankfully you beat me to it.

Really cool, I just need to decide which one I want for my garage.

Same for me. Took all of 10 minutes to complete and I hope that my participation helped.

I like the look of the signs but shipping cost is probably atrocious.

I also took the survey, and I hope it helps. Seems like some of the questions need more explanation. Such as the "how likely are you to purchase this knife" one. Some of those I'm not likely to purchase because I already own one, and have given them as gifts. The check boxes indicate that I'm not likely to because of disinterest.

The signs are pretty cool, and I'm ordering one of the "Quality fixed blades and folders". I'm a bit confused by the "Always sharp" sign. So they never need sharpening? How? And where can I get one?

Anyone have any idea where the signs are made? I'm guessing not in the USA, but would be nice to be pleasantly surprised...

Probably made by tintackers.com - in which case they are made in the USA - Arizona.

Probably manufactured by tintackers.com, is my guess.

Mine says ,"Made in USA". I ordered the green one. Not made of tin though.

Culprit99 and H Happy Hippo thank you both very much for the info!

You'll have to post a pic when you do. I've gotta see those 305's.

The Tin Tackers website says Aluminum.

The descriptions on the Buck website also say Aluminum.

I don't have any good lighting , so all I can really do is take them outside for a good picture.
Thankfully I've only currently got 11 of them so it's no big deal, I'm only missing maybe 4 so it would never really be a problem.
