This probably one of my most favorite Buck fixed blades.........I really like this knife & sheath!!

Nice one Johnnie!
I remember when they came out in the 80s.
They were really flashy with the wooden handles compared to the old black handles.

[johnnierotten]

Yeah.. they remind me of the old Olsen skinners. ....I think that is why I like it so much.

I havent seen that one in a while, thanks for sharin it Johnnie!

Hey Johnnie,

This one will be mine when Dad decides he doesn't need it anymore. I bought it for him for Christmas when they first came out, but I'll be damned if I can remember what year it was. Actually the one I bought got sent back and Buck replaced it at no charge. The edge shattered out on it when I chopped a deer's leg bone in two.






I've worked up several W TX muley's with it over the years.

HELL of a knife they are.

[orvet]

Willie,
As I recall they came out in the mid-1980s.
I want to say 1986, but I am not positive.

[Owd Wullie]

Could be Dale.

I was driving hard and fast back in the 80's and usually either had a snoot full of road dope or a belly full of whiskey.

The 80's are kind of blurry in my mind.

I had the same blur Man was it fun

I keep telling myself it was fun.....

It was damn sure a WILD ride from what I can recall and from what other folks tell me.
