Nice looking blades. Are they all custom made?

[Quick Steel]

ONly two are custom made in the true sense of that word, i.e. I specified to the maker what I wanted. Others are hand made but not to my specifications. In the top photo the bottom two knives were made by Camillus and receiving the OVB designation. {Our Very Best] They were designed by Jerry Fisk.

That's a very nice variation of the Mark II's Garry! I've been admiring those knives for awhile, but I like the non-serrated model like yours, as opposed to the serrated one, and their high price has also kept me at bay from pulling the trigger. A big feature to me is the "cat's tongue" handle, it really makes you feel like you have a solid grip on the knife! Thx for showing us yours!

I'm not a big fixed blade collector, but I got this one as a part of an Old Timer Heritage Series.
It's the 169OTH 5 in. D2 Stainless Steel blade with a full tang. 5.25 in. wood handle. It comes
with a custom leather sheath. The knife weighs in at 10.12 ounces. Beautiful knife.

Very nice David! I love the handle!

[Quick Steel]

David, I agree that is a beautiful knife.

Marco, Don't know if you are aware of this. Probably you are. Gerber produced the Mk II for a short while with the blade at a 5 degree
cant. So if you held the knife straight out in front of you you would see the blade was tilted 5 degrees. Somehow this was supposed to make for a better thrust. It was not a big success; Gerber dropped it fairly quickly. That is my understanding.

Thanks for the additional info Garry, I was aware of that. I personally didn't care for the cant since IMHO it made the blade appear bent, but it's always been the serrations that were the deal-breaker for me. They are very cool daggers that are steeped in history.

Thank you John. I'm not a Buck collector but I think it was the wood that caught my eye.

Thank you John. I'm not a Buck collector but I think it was the wood that caught my eye.

Yep, me too Garry! You usually see that knife with the black ABS/Delrin/Plastic handles, and the beautiful brown wood handle on your model give the knife a very special appearance! Thx for posting it!
