jok 3,035 Posted February 24, 2021 Report Share Posted February 24, 2021 Claude. Ah now I see what you mean. I remember when Socks made that one. What I have here is a German made ‘Boker’ with 3 interchangeable blades. We were over there stalking and I just couldn’t resist it. The original sheath was cloth and quickly deteriorated to be replaced with the Buck shown in the pic. Could do with a couple of stitches. I think it’s worth every penny of £75. What do you reckon?

claude 144 Posted February 24, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2021 That's nice jok but I feel it would be too complicated for him as he has a short fuse and a bad temper think he would be better off with a fixed blade for these reasons 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Got one with an orange handle so you don't lose it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Got one with an orange handle so you don't lose it I had a buck knife for over twenty years until I dropped it and broke the hook off , to be fair the blade was half the size of when I bought it .My pal was in the states at the time and I got him to bring me a new one back .The quality had gone down enormously , when I compared the two it was so obvious ..I believe they are made in China now which would explain it ..I certainly wouldn’t buy another one ..
