Okay besides Chris Reeves and the past Buck 110MS is there any other manufacturers using BG42 in their folders? Case? Shrade? I'm looking to increase my collection based upon blade steel rather than manufacturer. Besides the obvious, who is putting out the custom folders with BG42? When are they available?

Buck has a model 532 (Bucklock folder) on their 2000 catalog (not on their website), and that is with BG-42.
 
Actually, Buck is using BG42 in regular production 110`s and the 532 appears in their Y2K catalog with BG42. So add Buck to the list of folks currently using BG42.

I have a non Master Series 110 in BG42 and it`s pretty darned awesome. The new 532 is on my auto-buy list.

SOG plans on using BG-42 in some of their knives for 2000. Check out the thread over at knifeforums.com they have a SOG forum moderated by SOG.
Seems like SOG is putting out some good stuff.

The Buck 110s with BG42 aren't regular production. They were made up from blades left over from the MS run. Not a regular catalog item. Great price though.

The first 500 Strider folders from Buck will also be BG42.

I thought Steve B. had mentioned this earlier but maybe I'm hallucinating ....

Buck's website features their "Pete's Custom Knife Shoppe" where a person could order a semi-custom variant of the 110 Hunter with a combination of scales and blade steels, of which one of the choices is BG-42.

Not really production and not really custom, but certainly available and very close to the Master Series version and even closer to the "non-regulars" mentioned by Dennis, tho not quite as good a deal, pricewise.
 
Scharades custom collaboration with D'Alton Holder will have bg-42 blade.
This is only new one that I remember right away.
 
Anybody know if Buck is adding another line for a BG42 makeover?
