What's your newest Buck knife

I am continually learning things from you guys. So if I got something wrong, please correct me. I don't have a lot of exposure to older Buck knives. I picked up 2 liner 105 and 116 and 3 liner 102 and 103 - all in black phenolic. Did I identify these right? Also, I received in the mail a Brahma BOTM from March 2021 - beautiful knife.

Could very well be from an M9.
Great job on the one you made.

Hi, I asked the seller (and my friend Zanussi01 who at one time had lots of M9's) about the pouch and both confirmed it is from the M9.
The seller also told me it was from an Australian Army issue M9 bayonet made by Buck in the early 90's.
The 110 was in the pouch when he bought the Bayonet.

Thanks for your kind words.:thumbsup:
I liked this style of sheath so decided to make my own version.
However, I may remove the one big belt loop on the back and replace it with two smaller ones at each end.
This will allow the sheath to straddle the belt loop on my jeans so to position it for better access.
 
Nice find, all 100 series look to be in excellent shape, congrats!

Got some customs today. First, basketweave 112 n/s bolsters, s30v. File work on bolsters, spine, and blade. Looks beautiful. Then, modified Alaskan Guide Vanguard with S30V. Handles changed to stacked leather. The knife feels so good in the hand and looks fantastic.

Limited Edition 212 Fixed Ranger. Elk handle with aluminum/leather/buffalo horn spacers. W2 steel. Why can't more BOTMs look more like this?

Edit: I know this isn't BOTM, but it would be cool if they were more special, like this.

I picked up a maroon EcoLite Paperstone 110 to go with my green one. Interestingly it doesn't have the washer on the pivot pin like the green and others in the slim/light series.

Did the EcoLite Paperstone come in colors other than the maroon and green?

I believe green and maroon were the only colors offered in paperstone.

Received my anvils in the mail yesterday. Two 4 pounders and one 2 pounder. Oh yeah, also got a Kalinga Pro, Kalinga, and Akonua. Also got two Case XX anvils (not shown). The anvils have attached magnets to hold your knife on top, but my camera is mounted looking down right now and I'm too lazy to change the viewing angle.

Looks like one sold on this forum in 2014:
 
Here I thought I was just wasting the day away screwing around on the computer, and then I go and learn something new 👍😃
I'd never seen anything but red and green and thought I had, at one time, read something to the effect that red and green was all that were ever made.
Now I need a black one 😛
