Whats your newest addition to your Buck family and why?

[fergusontd]

Thanks for the tips Old Hunter, I'll try that and see what happens. ftd

I love my 301 but have a hard time putting a reasonable edge on it. Any suggestions anybody? ftd

I am assuming you have a modern 301 (420HC blade steel). Several good methods are ceramic sticks, diamond sticks, or a Lansky using the medium stone. I set all of the above at 25 degrees and mine stay plenty sharp. OH

I agree with OH!!!

A strop makes a bigger difference than you might think. I recently got a strop paddle and it's that thing I've been missing to get it right. I had no idea it made this much of a difference.

My newest Buck 110. 4 pins 1976.

[KLJ77]

That's a sweet looking 110, Tim. Looks to be in pretty good shape with lots of life left in it for a 76. Nice pick up.

Got this Buck 110 in the mail today from SMKW. They had $30.00 off on these and couldn't pass it up. First Production Run for 2019...1 of 500. NO individual Set. #'s. Black Micarta scales, Nickel Silver bolsters, liner & pins. 420HC / 58-59 HRC. Nylon Sheath. (will probably switch this out for a brown leather one)

That's sweet

Picked this nice little Trapper up thinking one day one of the grandkids will want it.

LJ, I really like that Buck - took the best of the EcoLite style handles and upped their game - very nice!
David, as a fisherman I think that is a very cool knife. OH

[KLJ77]

Thanks, Breeze and OH.

David, I've never seen a Buck knife with that design. VERY nice. That's something I would have picked up too, just because it's an 'eye catcher'.

Was able to get a 307 and a 301 new in the box. I've wanted a 307 for a while now. Now to find a 317.

[KLJ77]

Nice pick up on those two, Doug.

[Doug51]

Nice pick up on those two, Doug.

Thanks. The 307 is my favorite. The 301 is a little lighter in the walk and talk than I'm used to. But not terrible.

[jmh58]

Nice score Doug!!! 307 is on my "Someday" List!!!

Way to go Doug very nice

Great pick up Doug. You will put them to work I bet.

Great find, I’ve been looking a little for a nice 307.

[Old Hunter]

Nice pickUp on the Buck 307. The big Stockman pattern Buck’s are stoutly made and great outdoorsman’s pocketknives. A favorite of mine for taking hunting (along with a Buck 110). John, you need to find yourself one, nice ones pop up now and then at reasonable pricing. OH

[Doug51]

Thanks guys. I've just been offered a Buck 317 NIB but it's $125 from the same guy I bought the 307-301 from. I'm tempted but haven't made up my mind yet.

[CHNeal]

Well crap, I did it again! The last new in box 307 hasn’t even arrived yet and I bought another this morning. June is still several days away and I’ve already bought August’s knife...

Oh! And you think you're the first? I think I'm into 2022's knife budget.
I admire your self control if you normally only buy one knife per month.

If it makes you feel any better I would take it off your hands. I hate to see you suffering like this.
