Re: My Newest Buck

Thanks, folks! I have a decent number of Sambar Stag knives, a few Elk Antler knives, but this is my first Whitetail Antler knife.

Who to Call?

I have a Vietnam era Western W49 Bowie knife with rosewood handles. I also have a very nice Sambar Stag Crown. Who would you folks suggest I call to replace the rosewood handles with the Sambar Stag Crown? I have seen some pictures online after it was done, and it looks great to me. Unfortunately, i...

Re: 300s and such.

Hi Larry! No long time, no talk to. ::handshake:: The price is another thing that was really cool about that knife. Since it was going to have the forum stamp on the blade, the forum owner would not allow the sponsoring dealer (SKblades) to make any profit on the run. As a result, we got them at th...

Re: 300s and such.

For years and years, I carried a regular black 301 Stockman. It still is a fine knife. But about five years ago, I saw the chairman series 301 and picked that up as a replacement. After 50 years of black Bucks, it was fun to have one so colorful. The Chairman 301 is in my pocket every day now. It d...

Re: 300s and such.

Great topic. My favorite (so far) of the 300 series is this 301 that was collectively designed by a few hundred members of another knife forum that I frequent. And one phenomenally helpful dealer. It's basically a 301 minus the Spey blade and third spring. Elk handle slabs, long pulls, and CPM-154 ...

Re: Buyer beware - old Ulster Scout knife

ronfish, that has to be one of the best/nicest collection of knives I have ever seen! I was wondering approximately what year would I have seen that Remington Scout Knives wooden tray display in my local hardware store? I love it! Thanks for sharing!

1970 Stag Eisenhower

A couple of weeks ago I saw a 1970 10 Dot Stag Eisenhower sold for $400+ on eBay. It was in excellent condition and had really nice stag on one side and pretty good stag on the other. My question is why did this knife sell for so much. I didn't see it advertised as a limited edition or any other spe...

Have to have one

I figured everyone who buys knives to use or collect has to have a KA-BAR fixed blade knife. I finally got my first one. :D The first picture is the dealer's picture. The one in the sheath is mine. Can't find "my" picture of the unsheathed knife. ::shrug::
