old buck knives stones

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.

::welcome:: to AAPK. Glad you found our site. If you are asking whether or not you can sell the stones here we have an advertising forum in the knife commerce section that you can list them under. If you have other items to sell you can actually start a store here. Details can be found on the home page.

I'm no expert, but I would say yes. To find market value I would search completed listings on ebay. There are two being auctioned currently starting bid is 20 bucks. A posting of pics would be great.

Jeff - welcome to the forum! We have had a few threads devoted to sharpening stones. Regarding the value - I would not get my hopes too high. I have got some very nice wood boxed Arkansas stones off Ebay for $15 to $30. I have no specific knowledge of the value of Buck Stones. How about a photo or two with the dimensions?

There are folks who collect sharpening stones and others who use them but like having several. (I think I'm in the latter category.)

If you're interested in selling them I'm sure some of the folks here would like a shot at buying them.
