Whats your newest addition to your Buck family and why?

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.

Railsplitter, you took a color picture and my eyes translated it as black and white. What should that tell me about my eyes? ::hmm::

I bought this Buck 380 because it was listed as a Mini-Trapper. It's not. It's a Tiny-Trapper made in China and not worth the time and expense to send it back. It is put together well and quite the snappy little bugger, but.............. Oh well. Live and learn. At least it wasn't an expensive lesson.

About the size of a Peanut Jerry? Buck has more Far East patterns of slip joints than one realizes - saw some Buck canoes and doctors knives in a hunting/fishing store last week. Not my cup of tea either. OH

That is small, too small for me. I do have a couple of 2-7/8" Case mini-Stockman patterns that are still functional for light tasks, but that is as short as I want and not as a primary pocketknife at that. OH

Oh, I'm not trying to "sell it", Colonel. (not sell in the monetary sense but sell as in trying to convince others that it's more than what it is) If I had a do-over, I would never have bought it in the first place. Now it's just a cute little reminder to watch what the **** I'm doing.

The latest addition(s) to my Buck family is a set of four 110s. Why? I just couldn't pass up 4 110s for $50. Only 1 had a sheath, a nicely made Japanese black leather job that fits the knife like a glove. A 2 dot, a 4 dot, a 2 dash and a BUCK/110/USA (which had the sheath).
