Thumbs up Those other Bucks

Been an avid Buck collector for years, mostly the traditional fixed blades and folders however, I do kinda like the more tactical offerings Buck has put out from time to time.

Most of these are part of Buck's Night Hawk with the exception of the Simovich Raven. I don't really care for the Night Hawk series now that T.O.P.S. is collaborating with Buck on the design. Just don't like the holes they added to the blade for use on oxygen bottles. I'm sure they're still great blades, just not my cup of tea.

Anyway, here's my current line up of Buck fixed blade tacticals for your viewing pleasure. Any questions please feel free to ask.

I had a Nighthawk and it's a good knife, but doesn't fit my hand as well as some other knives, so I never used it.

In my opinion, Buck's best designs are their oldest.

I especially like the 118 and 119. Not "tactical" but very useful and efficient.

I know why some like the 118. I don't care for upswept blades. I prefer the 105 and the 119 and 120.

I mention Fallkniven a lot on this board, and like Randall, etc. But if I had limited funds and wanted a good knife, I'd buy a traditional Buck.
