    Welcome to iKC! And Merry Christmas Morning! I hope you find this site as fun and exciting as I have… I started in September and found a warm group of like minded friends… We trade ideas, products, learn of trend in collecting, and generally express ideas and learn. There are some great mind here that are contributors. Scott is brilliant and I see such names as A. G. Russell on post…. So this is a major forum that’s impacting this passion…. Jump in and enjoy… Please friend me and stay in contact!

    Hi Tom, Glad you enjoyed the Frank Buck Bowie post. I've just been looking at your photos and must say you have done some fantastic work. Your knives are gorgeous!! I really enjoyed your post on the Buck 117 folder as well. I think I've assumed for years that the 110 was the first folder Buck Knives produced. Mike

    Thank you, George. My dad is a very modest man, but he takes pride in his knifemanship and I'm very proud of him. Jimmy was a great man and he is missed by many who followed his work and by his friends and family.
