The old 110. I've been carrying the 112 mostly, but since my 110 from the CS might be here in another month or so, I thought I should get used to carrying the larger 110 once in a while.

I got most of the crud cleaned out of this one, finally. The action is smooth as silk now.

Carrying this 301 today. It was part of a special run made in 2014 for the Buck Collector's Club with ivory micarta covers and BG-42 blade steel,, an alloy originally developed by Latrobe Steel, which is now part of Carpenter. Before the advent of PM alloys, BG-42 had the highest edge retention of any available knife steel. CRK used to use it prior to changing to S30V. Buck occasionally used it.

Another 301 today. This one made in 2010 with "comfort craft" yellow covers.

Up on the Chowan River fishing today, have my Buck 112 Slim Pro with me. OH

A 112. We had a soaking rain last night & that reduced the fire danger, so I'm burning boxes today. We're out in the sticks, so we order stuff from Amazon & Costco frequently, and I've become pretty creative at nesting boxes together to save space in the garage. There were boxes from last Fall & Christmas.

The 303 in the center, 1997 vintage with flat ground blades. Only 300 Series knife I remember seeing with polished blades. Bet you folks have seen others.

Nice!!

Thank you! It’s my only custom shop Buck knife other than my new elk 112.

This thing gets carried a lot. I like a lighter knife in the Summer.
