I've got a dandy 102 & a few other smaller ones. A nice Gerber trout & bird model with built in cleaning spoon an old favorite too

About a year ago I bought a Buck 124 Frontiersman. The steel in it just fine. I have yet to use it, but I have no doubt that it will perform admirably when called upon. I like this "Buck Bowie",do you?

Sweet! I like it very much! Thank you for sharing.

This model is one that I was thinking about buying in the past and I still may get one. I saw it in one of our sporting goods stores in town and I did get to hold it in my hands.

I love the clean and simple lines of this Bowie style knife.

Do you happen to know when BUCK KNIVES first started to make this knife? The history of the knife? I could look it up if you do not know off hand.

Thanks again. Take care.

Cate,

I don't know when Buck began producing the Frontiersman, but the knife has been in their sales inventory before 1986.

Blessings.

I obtained my 124 about 1976. It's been a grand and useful companion; low use & high satisfaction. It helped introduce understanding that 'proper blade size' for given tasks is part of the skill in using any blade.

Mostly it's a memory-marker gift from a long departed friend.

Gentlemen,

Thank you for the information about the BUCK Frontiersman knife.

Have a nice evening!
