All About Pocket Knives

I hesitated on the Sept. 2021 BOTM and they were gone. Scored this factory blemish one the other day. Will make a goood user.

Is that red arrow pointing to the supposed defect?

Nice pick up on that one, David. If that is the only blemish, I could live with that too. It'll be a great user.

Well that wouldn't bother me in the least.

My newest addition to my knife collection and my first Buck ! Just arrived today.
Unused in a box Buck 110 Open Season one of 500 first made with Micarta handle. I understand now why people like Buck's and say they are quality folding knives. Awesome knife, gotta get one cheaper one for daily use for sure.

That is indeed an awesome knife! For daily use, in my opinion you can't go wrong with a 112 Slim Select. Good fit and finish, great blade with a hair-shaving edge from the factory (and after cutting a few Styrofoam ceiling tiles), made in USA, and under $30 US!

This 673 small fixed blade. Why? Because I lost the other 673

So glad you were able to find another 673, Scott. When I read that you had lost your other one a while back, my heart sank for you. I know how frustrating it can be to lose a GREAT knife. Wish I would have had one to send you.

Buck 110 Liner lock.

Great BUCK pick-ups Gents!!

Is that a modified Copper & Clad Exclusive by any chance? Nice work!

It’s 1997-1998 Buck products. Was made 200-350 knives.

I'm intrigued! So the original cutout for the lock release on the rear bolster is still there but the lever isn't visible in the photos. What happened to the original lock release lever? This is a very interesting knife.

No back lock, just liner.

Thanks David and Dan!
