My Buck,"accumulation"......
Over the past 40 or so years I have accumulated a number of Buck knives;both USA and "Pacific Rim" models.My own personal preference for use is a model 186 sans the pocket clip and takedown tool.All the beef of a 110 and half the weight. My biggest issue with the 110 was it's handle heaviness if used for prolonged periods of time.
Anyway here they are for better or worse.It will take a few posts so please be patient.

Re: My Buck,"accumulation"......
I PM'ed Ray and ask permission to add my Bucks to this thread and he graciously gave me permission. Thanks Ray.

Re: My Buck,"accumulation"......
That is the Buck 186 Titan.Only manufactured for a couple of years likely because of poor sales.Not because it was a poor knife but because it was about three times the price of a 110.The frame was made of titanium and featured a detachable pocket clip also made of titanium.It also was able to be dis-assembled using a small hex wrench that attached to the side opposite the clip for cleaning.In the kit was a plastic sleeve to slide over the blade to protect from cuts when dis-assembling.EeDeCe wrote: ↑Tue Jul 07, 2020 9:29 pmWhat's the story with that very first you posted?

If you didn't want to use the pocket clip or have the tool attached,shorter screws were supplied with the knife to allow for a smooth handle.
I bought mine I think in 1986 or 87 and they were $65 at the time. Later they made another titanium handled knife(Model 560)that could not be dis-assembled.One of them was just on e-Bay and re-listed a couple times because the price wasn't met.I think the auction topped at around $130.

As an aside what cracked me up about the 110 I have that is still in the packaging is the illustration showing the blade open and the nail nick on the wrong side of the blade!

Yeah, very pricey for the time, but seems worth it. Really nice knife!

Re: My Buck,"accumulation"......
A couple of great collections of Buck Knives on display here. Amazing how many nice Buck Knives you can accumulate - even of a brand that is not your primary collecting focus. Very nice gents! OH
