what buck knives have the bos logo on them? I know the vantage pro, avid do what else?
 
I believe that only the ones with premium steel have the logo. Going through the 2010 catalog, I find these (some models of each)that will have the Bos logo because they use either S30V or one of the Sandvick steels. I might have missed a model, but these seem to be the current offerings. You can also get S30V by ordering from Buck's Custom Shop. There's also several now discontinued models that had the logo on some.

Folding and fixed blade Ergo Hunters
Alphas
Mini-Alphas
Omni Hunters
Vantage's
Bravo's
Buck/Simonich Raven
Hartsook
Paradigm's

Dont forget.
All the BUCK Striders except the later trainers.
The BUCK Tops csar-t.
All the premium steel's is the correct answer.
 
A note out of a past thread...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


"We decided not to mark the 420HC blades with the Bos flame so it would be a more special designation for the higher end custom steels but please know that the 420HC is heat treated under Paul's guidance. " __________________

Someone at Buck, I believe it was Joe, said on another thread that the BOS logo is reserved for the premium steels, but Paul Bos oversees the heat treating of ALL the steels at Buck Knives.
 
when did they start using the Bos logo? I have a 181 odyssey in ATS-34 with no logo made in 2001. Any ideas?

Good question. Here's two Taclites, one with the Bos stamp and one without. I believe that they were only made in 2001 and 2002.

Just curious as when they started using the bos logo on the premium steels. My odyssey is 2001 and no logo. Just wondering.
