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.

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

Welcome, Tom — you have some very interesting knives. The coffin handle Bowie was the one that just jumped up and sang. I'll look at your pix more carefully later.

I thought I'd jump in here and "end" this thread: I did send the knife into Case Repair fellowing the instructions on the website. I intentionally tried to forget about the knife so I wouldn't drive myself crazy haunting the mailbox every morning i…

I suppose it all depends on the 'defendant's" political leanings. Seems to me that the enlightened left can get away with murder (or switch-blades), while the conservative folks get in trouble for saying 'dang-it' after something heavy lands on thei…

Add a can of Ren Wax to keep them nice and purdy and I also use a little bag of Silica gel to keep the moisture out ! You sure did a good list though! One doesn't even think of all the stuff that you use and accumulate.
