scaler 121

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.

I don't remember if I ever posted this one but, because I love the 121 pattern so much, I have 4 different ones. This one seems special so I do not use it.

Nice knife. Almost a Grail knife. The fisherman with scalers broke a lot and Buck stopped making them. With it's thin blade any 121 fisherman is a sweet knife.

Yep Cal, that's a keeper, not a user - great Buck piece! OH
