Buck 506

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.

That's a fine looking knife! What are the handles made of? It looks like Westinghouse Micarta but I don't know if Buck ever used that.

Nice Buck, truck! I have several Buck 500 series from that era with burgundy Micarta grips, I would ASSUME the knife uses an off white Micarta. OH

Yes, I've read several names for this one. There was even something like a Lady Buck or some other feminine name.
