What's your newest Buck knife

[ChiefTJS]

Well, I may have ordered a new standard 112 last night.

One glamor shot before the first day on the job. It'll never be this clean again.

One of those with black scales is heading my way on a UPS truck.

My 112 Slim Select finally arrived yesterday after a leisurely cross country tour on a UPS truck. I like carrying a smaller/lighter knife in the Summer, and this fits the bill. It locks open with an authoritative "clack", the blade is centred & has no play, and comes in at 2.6oz according to my wife's kitchen scale. The edge was kind of rough, but I'm seldom satisfied with the edges on new knives, and a couple minutes work on the Sharpmaker & everything's good.

Picked up the Compadre with the 110, and the 301 and Bucktool off the 'bay.

Just got my 841. The carbon fiber is beautiful and the blade grinds are excellent. Unfortunately the detent is on the light side, I can open it just by shaking it. Not impressed with the pocket clip either. The tip flares out and doesn't flatten back over. It's pokey and stands a quarter inch off the scales.



I didn’t realize how vibrant this CF would be. Great chatoyancy.

Here is my new to me EDBK (Every Day Beater Knife)! The tip looks a little fragile for prying but Magnacut is supposed to be pretty tough so we will see how it goes.

Seriously, you pay $150+ for a unique knife and use it for prying

Why not? I already have a safe queen.

I am just kidding. The tip is too slender for prying stuff apart .

Picked up this at the pawnshop today, mint in the box 110 in S30V.
(I did get this to be a user as I recently sold all my 110's, but it's far too pretty to mess up!)

My Buck 503 BOTM was supposed to arrive today via FedEx 2-day but after it left Memphis at 4AM Friday the tracking has not updated

I’m hoping for Monday if it is not lost.

I know everybody has different experiences with carriers, but when something gets shipped to me via FedEx, or UPS, the package is almost always beat to heck, dirty, and it arrives......whenever. Packages shipped USPS are usually on time & in good condition.

Like they say: Your results may vary.

It showed up today while I was out of town so it’s waiting for me at the mail desk.

Another haul from the pawnshop today.
A lovely 'ol 4 dot with rock solid lockup that I am loathe to polish and destroy such a nice patina.
A mint in box Plane Jane 110 from '22, my user that I'm carrying in a custom made belt pouch right now.
Last, but not least, a beautiful little 285 in mossy oak blaze orange that I shouldn't have trouble losing.

Arrived yesterday:

[Edit: It's cleaned up and in the cutlery drawer ready to go.]

That cutlery drawer of yours becoming pretty impressive.

Just picked up these two 426's today in an old tacklebox at a yard sale.
The grey one (1989) needs a bit of a clean up, but the black one (1990) looks unused.

Great score!! I always dig through tackle boxes at yard/estate sales hoping to find a nice knife.
