What's your newest Buck knife

I've been away for a while, but just dropped by to show this one I picked up recently.
This M9 is one of the five marking variations of the Gen 4 made between September 1987 and 16 September 1989.
Mil spec and mil issued (but doesn't look to have been too far from the armory) she's correct with all the right parts and
only showing slight wear if any.
The 110 is my 'ol 4 Dot (with faint dots which makes it Version 7, Variation 3) from 1985-6.

Got 3 nice 112s from Bucksway.
    • 1987 Finger Grooved version of the Commemorative knife. This has a brass frame - recall that the non-finger grooved version has a n/s frame. In original box with sheath.
    • 1980-1981 Stag. Very clean version with nice thick bark with original box and sheath. (the thing that looks like it might be a crack is actually cat hair - need to take another photo)
    • 2020 Cocobolo. This is the January 2020 BOTM also having S35VN, drop point and n/s bolsters. This is #3 of the 11 BOTMs that featured 112s. I'm still missing #1, which was the December 2018 BOTM with Ebony and S30V. Do you have one for sale?
Got a great price and I'm glad to add them to my collection. Bucksway has a lot of knowledge about 112s and his collection contains a lot of rare oddities

The state of MA changed the auto knife laws last year and I have been on the fence about one of these, decided to order one got it yesterday as I was going to order another custom 110 but I really like the G10 slabs
they are perfect. The fit and finish is spot on with this one and I am happy I got it. It will be my new EDC sheath knife. I have left the sheath that came with it in th box as I am not a fan and will use a nice older broken in sheath.

Yeah, thanks to Critter Critter 's Knife Rights group, PA's knife laws were changed a couple years ago to allow automatics, too. I just haven't felt the urge to get one yet. And as for sheaths- instead of switching out sheaths all the time, I have an older one for the 112s & one for 110s that I use. I just prefer the stiffer leather used for the old ones, and although the new sheaths look nice, they're still in the boxes.
 
Check your local Tractor Supply. Many of them are selling knives on clearance prices. I bought a few Cases a couple weeks ago, but went to a different store yesterday and ended up getting the 722 for like $30.. and had to grab another Case lol

I just checked, and the only Bucks my local one has is a Spitfire for $49.99, a 110 for 69.99, and a 371 stockman for 39.99. So no big savings going on here.
