Like most a yall I have carried a bunch if knives. I love them I try new ones all the time. But for the last 6-8 years its been another Buck and also a Spyderco.
One of my very first (real) knives I owned was a Buck 112 for my Grade School Graduation. I carried that knife all thru my school years loosing it one day when a fishing buddy convinced me to throw it to him across a small stream. Yup, ya know what happened. But to his credit (He remains a friend today) He bought me a new Buck but it was not a 112 it was a 110. It took me over twenty five years and two attempts to replace that knife with as close to my original 112 as I could. This one looks identical is made within a few years of mine. (Assuming based in 1976/77 when I received mine)
I have more then a few Buck knives today I have had the same Buck in my hunting pack for over thirty years. My pocket knife has changed more then a few times and I continue to occasionally buy another the Buck has earned a place and doubtful it will every be replaced.
