All About Pocket Knives

I have just the finest leather knife roll imaginable. The leather is thick yet very supple and the elastic straps are 'heavily' stitched to make the 47 slots.
Measures 27" x 13". Underneath the thick leather handle is "BUCK/Knives" & the Buck Idaho logo (i think this is correct ?).
I would like to know the 'story' behind such a fine example of leather work for knife storage. Did the roll come with any special knives in it ? or was it to commemorate something ? or ??
And were these made in the same leather shop that makes Buck sheaths ?
I got this one on ebay some years back but did not think to ask the seller how he came to have it.
Any info will be appreciated.
thanks, kj

Roland I can't tell you a thing about your knife roll other than it made me drool a little on my keyboard.

Yes Phil. It is of much finer leather than is needed to make a perfectly fine knife roll and the heavy double stitching throughout shows excellent workmanship. It must have been celebrating something 'over-the-top' special going on in Post Falls, Idaho !

Send your photos directly to Buck. I'm sure someone there can give you information on it.https://www.buckknives.com/

That's really nice, Joe.

Roland you have a jewel there. Exceptional.

Thanks. I did email Buck asking for any back ground info about this knife roll. I will post the reply.

Other than the fact that "you're not supposed to store a knife in a leather sheath", I'd really rather have a roll like this than the Sack-Ups I normally use. At least Sack-Ups can be bought locally, and have a rust preventative in them.

I have owned this for at least about 7 years, maybe longer, time goes faster than i do. I kept my custom folders (about 20) in this leather knife roll and never noticed any ill effects. I have sold most of my customs which is why it is now empty. Maybe this leather has been treated to prevent dampness from taking hold ?

Hey kj.. That is KOOL!! And keep us posted as to what BUCK says!! NICE!! John

As has been stated - cool! I’ve been interested in Buck Knives and Buck stuff for years - never seen one before, couldn’t be many of them around. OH

Hello Blade Man ! Welcome to AAPK. You made your first post here. And yes, Buck did reply that this was made for a salesman to use.
I hope you stick around and share what you know with us.
