Buck Knives Bill Lowen Bass Trapper

Hoyt Buck produced the first Buck Knife in 1902. Hoyt and his son Al moved to San Diego and set up shop as H.H. Buck & Son in 1947. Al Buck revolutionized the knife industry in 1964 with the infamous Model 110 Folding Hunter. The company's innovative history and attention to quality have made for many great collectible knives.

Likely a contract made Buck knife ordered and sold only by Smokey Mountain Knife Works via special promotion. I believe there were three or four different versions. I have only one featuring the Crappie. Its been a spell but I believe if you after ordering from SMKWs you opened up your box and the fish was gold plated you won a "major' prize. I didn't win....300
