Ahh...so it is in reference to the Tip up or Tip down stamping...OK. Yea I am aware of those differences, I have just never heard it referred to as an Inverted tang before...especially since the tang is in the handle.

Thanks! I appreciate your reply...and yes - I would like to see your photos....

"Sorry didn’t notice your question on about the inverted tang stamp, early Buck tang stamps are upside down

So teach me something please...what exactly is an inverted tang, and how do you know these knives have one or not?

Is this instead reference to the Tip Up or Tip Down tang stamp on the ricasso, or the tang itself?

Thanks -
