Christmas came early, yay!! Just received my Buck 112 Slim Knife Pro in Canvas Micarta with S30V blade, and a 112 Slim Knife Select in Blue Nylon with stock 420HC, (also comes in black, chartruese, & orange). Both come with a stainless steel deep-carry pocket clip, a crucial selling point for me. Fortunately I get a BCCI "Pro" discount from the factory store, so I got both for far less than can be found anywhere else online. I am thrilled with both knives, the fit & finish is superb and they both fit my hand perfectly. The Pro knife is absolutely splendid, I just love that Micarta handle and the exotic S30V blade, I mean it is a just beautiful knife and a joy to behold, (online photos DO NOT do it justice). I got the Pro to put on display, and the Select to be a user, but I suspect I will slip that Pro in my pocket on special occasions. I considered getting a 112LT, but the pocket clip and handle material/colors convinced me to get these instead. These are my very first 112's, I seriously considered getting the slightly larger 110 versions of these knives, but I am glad I elected to buy these 112's, they are perfectly sized if you ask me. Also, both of these are one-hand opening, another plus in my book.

Obviously I am gushing a bit, but you all know how cool it is when you get new knives, so gimme a break.

I love Buck Knives and they were my first knife - in high school I carried a 110 and then a 112 when I lost my 110. I have a small collection of 110s and 112s along with a few other patterns, and a few David Yellowhorse knives as I met him after his step-daughter attended one of my firearm safety classes! I'll post a few pictures here over the next few weeks. 

112 Ranger first version, first variation micarta - 

I also have one that is like new in box - 

I have a rare but well-used 112 in Shedua wood - it's the knife on the top in these pictures - 

That's good for today - 

best regards -

Here is an old warhorse, I believe it belonged to my father-in-law who was a master mechanic on heavy equipment.

That sir is an example of the very first version of the Buck #301 Stockman, made by Schrade for Buck in 1966 only, (the following year they eliminated the lined bolsters and then moved production to Camillus by 1972, the lined bolsters were a one time only accoutrement.  A rare bird, the first of a series, too bad about the secondary blade though.

My father-in-law was a man of the old school.  A knife was a tool to be used and if or when

it broke you just replaced it.

I believe I have another  Buck stockman that was his and I believe a black handled Frontier

that he used. 

When he retired I gave him a Uncle Henry sllimline stockman to carry and I believe its

somewhere among my knives.

I'm right there with you and your father in law, a knife is a tool and meant to be used as a tool. My most prized possession is the 1926 Kinfolks fixed blade I inherited from my father, I intend to pass it on to the next generation. I have other hand tools my father used, and those are precious to me also, it's nice knowing that a tool was handled and appreciated by my ancestors.
