Whats your newest addition to your Buck family and why?

[Old Hunter]

Very nice Larry! OH

[Byrd]

One of the nicest 119's I've seen! Bucks phonelic handles are probably indestructible, but in the looks department that stag tops them!

Just received this new Buck 301. Sent 3 knives back for repair. Buck repaired the 500,503 and gave me a new 301 because due to age they could not replace the blade on the old 301.

Buck gets an A+ in customer service. I've used them a few times and am always amazed at their work. The spa knives look new and a new 301 is icing on the cake!

I love my 301 but have a hard time putting a reasonable edge on it. Any suggestions anybody? ftd

Thanks' John
I have always liked Buck. I was looking through my accumulation of knives and I have thirty Buck's. So over the years I must have really liked them! Funny thing is I never paid attention to the warranty until I joined this web site. Boy am I glad I did.

I am assuming you have a modern 301 (420HC blade steel). Several good methods are ceramic sticks, diamond sticks, or a Lansky using the medium stone. I set all of the above at 25 degrees and mine stay plenty sharp. OH

[fergusontd]

Thanks for the tips Old Hunter, I'll try that and see what happens. ftd

A strop makes a bigger difference than you might think. I recently got a strop paddle and it's that thing I've been missing to get it right. I had no idea it made this much of a difference.

My newest Buck 110. 4 pins 1976.

[KLJ77]

That's a sweet looking 110, Tim. Looks to be in pretty good shape with lots of life left in it for a 76. Nice pick up.

Got this Buck 110 in the mail today from SMKW. They had $30.00 off on these and couldn't pass it up. First Production Run for 2019...1 of 500. NO individual Set. #'s. Black Micarta scales, Nickel Silver bolsters, liner & pins. 420HC / 58-59 HRC. Nylon Sheath. (will probably switch this out for a brown leather one)

[Breeze]

That's sweet

[dlr110]

Picked this nice little Trapper up thinking one day one of the grandkids will want it.

[Old Hunter]

LJ, I really like that Buck - took the best of the EcoLite style handles and upped their game - very nice!
David, as a fisherman I think that is a very cool knife. OH

[KLJ77]

Thanks, Breeze and OH.

David, I've never seen a Buck knife with that design. VERY nice. That's something I would have picked up too, just because it's an 'eye catcher'.

[Doug51]

Was able to get a 307 and a 301 new in the box. I've wanted a 307 for a while now. Now to find a 317.

[KLJ77]

Nice pick up on those two, Doug.

[Doug51]

Nice pick up on those two, Doug.

Thanks. The 307 is my favorite. The 301 is a little lighter in the walk and talk than I'm used to. But not terrible.

[jmh58]

Nice score Doug!!! 307 is on my "Someday" List!!!
