Thanks so much Theo.

First-Gen Buck 422 Bucklite Ranger from the late '80s. I've tried virtually all of Buck's various generations of slimmed-down, weight-reduced 110 and 112s, and so far, nothing has come close to the first-gen. The current ones just plain feel cheap, and the standard LT handle texture is too aggressive. The micarta-like texturing on the 422 is perfect, and the finger grooves produce an even better grip. Plus, I also have the superior 425M steel on this model.

Today, it was on the hip while running errands, and in the pocket the rest of the day. Went in for one thing at Walmart that I forgot in a Sam's pickup order, and ended up going overboard on diecast again.

You sure walked the "Dogs" with your last 2 posts, Garry, both are very handsome knives, woof-woof!

Thanks for that link Dan

You are very welcome! Credit is also due for Jerry (who wrote the post I linked to) and Mumbleypeg (who mentioned Haversian canals in another post, which helped me find Jerry's post).

Dan... it might be starting to look like you may have been sucked into "The Cult of the #72"

Most definitely...just wish I had better luck finding good ones on the cheap!

Thanks for the kind words, Floyd and Mark! Knice carries from I-Man, Garry, Cody, and garddogg56, too!

It's been a month of Sundays since I've posted here but nothing has changed and I doubt will change.

A Shur-Snap with bad tail end shrinkage, but it still works perfectly to start the workweek.

Sticking to your favorite pattern.

Bulldog Whitler

Whittler's don't get much more refined than this one. I am of course somewhat biased.

Iman, I am especially fond of those yellow scales. But both knives look very fine.

Snap-On Chubby by Kershaw.

Kershaw made this in a ton of different handle colors for Snap-On, as well as a Craftsman variant called the "Work Knife". I bought this beat-up, dog-chewed example because it was cheap, and I wouldn't be afraid to carry it. Set in a box for ages, as the excessively thin "professionally sharpened" edge the seller claimed it had didn't hold up at all. Kershaw fixed it for me last year, and it's been regularly carried since.

It fits my smallish hand great. The only complaint I will make is that the lock release is almost flush with the scale.


My favorite part about this knife is its unique pocket clip, which is designed to look like a wrench turning a bolt (which in this case, is the pivot).

Thanks Ike...I appreciate it

[Madmarco]

Another beautiful showing of your knives today, guys n' gals, your tastes in fine cutlery remains impeccable, an' I get to be friends with ya'll, what a country!

I loooove those wrench clips that integrate the bolt into the pivot, Cody, very cool idea!

Nice one Theo!

BTW, I found these three examples of knives made with old whiskey barrels.

What website is that, very interested in them...Kim
