If it performs well, there is nothing to hate.

Here is one I purchased from one of our members here at AAPK. The first picture is the one I got
and the second is one I came up with when searching for information. It's very different from what
I mostly collect but my wife liked it......Why?

That's a cool little knife, David, you wife has good taste. ::tu::

BTW, when I first heard of a Skian Dubh I had to ask my Scots friend from clan Fraser how to pronounce it. For those who weren't already aware, it's pronounced "Skeen-doo"

Picked up another two pre '86 Bucks at a local auction yesterday ... 317 and 701. Can now scratch the 317 and 701 off my grail list.

The 317 is a very tough knife to find! And you got a mint one! Super score.
You can always get more money, good old knives are hard to find.

Nature abhors a vacuum, me I hate a dull knife.

Thanks Rockinkj! I have been looking for a reasonably priced one for a long time. Got the original sheath also. Picked up 5 nice Bucks at that auction at very fair prices. These 2, a 301, and 2 307 ... all pre'86. I am thankful ... that doesn't happen too often.

Super. I spent way too much time chasing Bucks I can’t eat. Here is my one liner bucks and early Schrade and Camillus contract folders collection.
