    Thank you for the kind words. Where is the forum? You know, the place where people discuss knives.

    I have been trying to navigate around but the format here will take me some getting used to. I would like to publicly announce who sent me here but I don't know where or how to do it. All I have really figured out so far is how to reply to someone's comment.

    Is there a main discussion page? Would you be so kind as to help me out?

    Thank you and please forgive my ignorance. This format is very new to me.

    PLEASE, HELP ME MOVE THESE BUCK KNIVES TO SOMEONE THAT WOULD APPRECIATE THEM.

    I HAVE 2 sets of 6 piece cactus filled handles steak knife set from Buck.  Less than 10 sets ever made by Buck.  These sets were presented to top Buck Knife Sales Representatives in the late 1970s over a 2 year period.  These knives are in a presentation box and are in great condition as they were the day awarded by Buck.  These sets have been priced by long time Buck Knife collector at $800.  We are asking $675 each.  Pictures are available with a provided email address

    Thank you,  Pat Washmon   pwashmon@sbcglobal.net   817/ 494- 6698 central

    Thank you j.j.: hopefully this first problem will be easy, I’ve tried to leave comments on the “members online but I don’t or cant find a send button. I get an open aria above the members name that does nothing, then a text enter aria below with the happy face, but no send or inter button. What am I missing. thanks


  • KnifeMaker

    I think you’re right, I’m just happy I’m getting through. One of the things I tried to do was ask the question “is this the right site for stone blades” now I’ll try again. What do you think

  • Fred Mendes

    Thanks JJ

  • Fred Mendes

    Thanks JJ yes  those are very similar Most of the accessories are the same. My pliers are smaller in one set and I don't have the bigger pliers/cutters  that is in the other set. My case is different than both of those also.  Steve is going to help me post pictures. Thanks again
