All About Pocket Knives

Looks like something Blackjack or Marbles would make, Rob, but that's all I can say, other than it's a cool bowie, of course!

Thank you CCC!

My new RW Loveless designed Beretta. I have had a black handled copy for several years, and they are excellent knives.
This orange handle would actually be a better field knife than the black. If you've ever set your knife down while working in the woods, you know what I mean.

Nice HOK, Foam guy!
Wouldn't it be cool if it was owned by Chuck Buck, assuming that's what you were referring to.
You're new here so it's understandable you don't know your way around just yet, but if you read the title of this thread "Show off your fixed blades!", you can see it's for fixed blade knives not folding knives, so for future reference you want to post in the appropriate threads. It's not a problem, just thought you'd wanna know!
to AAPK!

Thank you sir, yes you are correct very new here and I honestly don't realize I was posting in the wrong forum. But I did manage to make it to the correct one. Lol. Handshakes back.

Nice! When buying a pattern, I too tend to go for the brightest handle color I can get (though flourescent yellow and lime green I like better--since I tend to accidentally forget orange tools when they're laying on the orange tailgate of the Kubota UTV--aka the garage workbench). And if it's not, I tend to use blue, orange, or yellow paracord to make sure I can see it if dropped. Almost all my Moras are their high vis orange color.

Quite some time ago, a member here offered the black ones for something like $40 each. Not buying one was a mistake.

I'm not a hand writing expert but that signature looks the same and is etched in the same manner as the signature on my Buck canoe/moose pictured below (sorry the photo doesn't show the signature very well, I'll try to get a better shot when I get time). Without close examination I'd say yours looks authentic. Folks on the Buck collectors thread may be able to give you a more knowledgeable answer.

They are very similar thanks for sharing sir. Apparently these signatures are common to people attending knife shows and getting knives signed by Mr. Buck. I had thoughts of it being rare and uncommon. Thanks again for your response 👍

The price has increased 100% since then.

Uh, my Dad was "Sir", F-guy, my name is Mark/Marco!
Don't give it another thought, you'll know your way around here in no time!

I've been seeing knives by different cutlers coming out of the Ukraine being offered for a while now so I thought I'd snag one and see what they are all about. This one is from BPS Knives and is called the Adventurer Bush Craft knife. It arrived with leather sheath and fire starter. Over all it is a well made knife and the sheath is also good quality. I'm not sure how the 1066 carbon steel blade will perform but I'll find out. 10" OAL with a nice thick spine, no nonsense finish on the walnut scales and scadi ground edge. Bang for the buck I'd say it's a good deal.

How bout' it indeed, Jim, very cool ole' bowie!
And, to AAPK!

I had a Buck hat signed by him, I traded it off a while ago, but somewhere I have pictures. I'll look through my old files to see about a signature comparison. I know he signed things, I just don't know 'bout that there ol' knife...

Thanks D.L. & TMK I love the stag and I can sit there and stare into the Damascus pattern and get hypnotize

Great showing of your bowies, Dog, I like the Ka-Bar with the black handle the most!

Here’s my two AG Russell Bowies.

Two Iron Mountain knives (aka Beaver knives).

Nice! Are they from back in the day, when he was having some outstanding knives made in Japan?

Here is a fixed I just pulled out of the sheath to find some rust on the blade

Gaucho knife from Argentina
