What would you like to see Buck produce?

I would be interested in seeing the 55 with a 503 drop point blade - maybe even in 5160 steel. Adding burgundy micarta scales would be extra sweet!
 
If love to see a one hand open/close locking sheepsfoot or wharncliffe blade about 2 to 2.5 inches in length, pocket clip, anything but plastic scales and no tacticool. Might not be the prettiest but would be practical.
 
I know this is going to sound strange but I would like to two different scale options on the same knife. For example buffalo horn as one scale. And elk as the other scale. Each custom knife would be rather unique if differe scales in the same knife where possible
 
124 in 5160, saber grind, walnut scales, lanyard hole, flat sharp spine with tan sheath would be nice. Also a USA fixed blade Selkirk in 5160 with everything else left the same.

These are great suggestions.

One problem I have with handles like on the Selkirk is that the wide guard inhibits a pinch hold that I use often when making draw cuts. The Mora Companion is one of many "bushcrafter" knives that are really excellent in this manner. So is the Buck Bucklite series. I won't pull the trigger on a Selkirk unless until it has a Bucklite Max or Mora Companion style front part to the handle.

Too lazy to go back right now. If somebody hasn't said it or I'll second it if they have please bring back the Buck 111!
 
Thinner 110 or 112. And a thinner 112 with a drop point blade.

501 with a lockbar that doesn't droop when the blade is closed. Also, a 501 with all wood handles, no bolsters.

A 301 with good walk and talk, and thinner ground blades.

OH! Better yet, bring back the 700 series slipjoints.

thanks for asking C&C! Buying your 110 5160 a few months back started as serious case of "Buck fever" for me!

I would love to see Buck replace the Hoodlum with a similar size and weight bushwacker type knife. I use my Hoodlum a lot clearing brush and such and it really is fun to use. A redesign of the handle to make it a bit longer with less hot spots would be nice; the shock mitigation system should absolutely stay. I haven't had to use the infamous notch yet, that could go. A red blade like the froe and compadre would be sweet! Buck's 5160 holds an edge really well for this kind of use.
 
A 110/112 with a thumb hole to open. Or just throw a 722 spitfire blade in a 112, they are pretty close in size.
 
Oh, I have 1 more and it should be easy since you did a 110 in 5160. How about a 112 in 5160 with the oak and charcoal as with the 110?

OK, i came up with another.

A 113 Ranger Skinner, but with a FFG or Saber ground blade, and micarta or textured G10 scales with brushed stainless bolsters.

I don't mind the hollow grind, but I would love g10 scales and bolsters that don't make the knife weigh as much as it does now
 
I would like a 110 made with a stainless frame and bolsters instead of brass or nickel silver . Bolsters a 1/16" thinner with micarta or g10 scales and a pocket clip. Thank's for asking and hurry up ! Haha

Here you go. S30V, G10, stainless bolsters, pocket clip and thumbstud :)
 
I have one of these and would actually use it if it wasn't a 200 dollar limited edition knife.
The thumb stud on this knife is also pretty useless.
