What Buck are you carrying today?

[RLB0414]

that a single blade version, or am I looking at it wrong?

Not looking at it wrong. It started life as standard 2 blade version. A member here deleted the skinning blade for me.
I like big single blade slip joint and frame locks. I still have an original 2 blade version in the drawer.

How has the action on that HQ exclusive been on this Buck 112? Happy with it for the cost?

Happy with it, yes.

The action is good. Spring is a little soft, but that actually works well with the thumbstud opening. It fires open very smooth with a thumb flick. There is a little bit of side to side blade when opened. Not a ton, but enough to be annoying. I will probably send it in at some point to Buck to hopefully tighten that.

But, the knife itself is awesome. I'm not a sheath/belt knife guy for the most part, and when I do carry a knife on my belt, I'd rather have it be a little bigger. So to me, a 112 is meant for the front pocket. Obviously a bit heavier than like a Slim Pro, but it does carry well in a jean pocket.

G10. It doesn’t really have any texture, super smooth.

A flat grind blade would be nice in those, with that handle.

I sorta agree.
Tho I have to admit I have a few big knives with a recurve blade that I like.
I guess size matters.

Weather kept me home today.

This one has been following me around outside of work lately.

Super steels are nice.
But dollar for dollar it's pretty hard to beat these.

Carrying the 110 again today.

Anyone want any walnuts? Free! Come & get them. We have two walnut trees that dumped a bunch of nuts last Fall, so I just gathered them up on a pile between the trees. Every other year the tree rats are swarming all over the place, burying walnuts all over the back yard. This year I haven't seen one of those miserable creatures out back. All their lazy butts are crawling all over my neighbour's bird feeders every day though.

We got seven more inches of snow last night. It was the light fluffy stuff, so an hour with the snow blower & I was done. I broke a shear pin on the one auger, but that was only a five minute fix.

Not really carrying these but I did carry them out to my work bench to do a little oiling for maintenance…
