What's your newest Buck knife

Yesterday, my brother gave me a 110 that he bought in 1993 and never used. He said the sale price was so tempting, that he bought a knife that he didn't need. Go figure, I've never done anything like that.:rolleyes: I offered to pay for it, but he said it was a trade for the 501 that I gave his wife years ago. I'll post pictures later, right now I'm taking it in the crawl space while I repair the sump pump. After 28 years in a dresser drawer, it's ready to go to work.

nice. 28 years later from a sitting in a drawer life the factory edge still ready to get to work. wish i was still like this....ready to work like i was 28 years ago.😉
 
Skelator88 that IS a nice one..The Damascus 112's have always been a mystery to me and hard to find. I've tried for years to find just when the first one came out and how many were made without much luck. I always pictured Joe going in a small back room and grabbing a old dusty box of blades when he needed a few. They were available for the Old Custom shop but only 136 total Old Custom shop 112's were made and less than a dozen were Damascus. Aside from the BCCI runs there's very few Damascus 112's out in the wild. My WAG is less than 500 in total..

Yes I was surprised to come across this one myself. I have only seen a couple over the years mainly the ones you have displayed. Very limited numbers! Thanks for the info

My 119 arrived ! Took a couple of days less than two months from day of order. Love it :); planning to use it in a different sheath though.

I like that thing so much that I bought another s30v 119 yesterday. Copper and Clad still had their special with the red Micarta handle. And it has Alu hardware, should be easier to EDC. Anyways, I’m excited.
