Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire buck knife price on Ebay

I lost my little Buck Rival 363 that I've carried for years. While looking for a new one, I found this item on Ebay. A 363 and a 365 packaged together for only a few $$ more than either one separately. The price is too good. Does that sound like it could be a fake?

Never mind. I checked the Buck website. The 365 is no longer made. They've replaced it with the 366. That can explain the low price. I bought it. I can always use an extra knife.

Don't know what the price was . . . don't care . . . if you are pleased, that is all that counts. One can never have too many knives or screwdrivers.

I'm not sure producing fake Buck knives would be a worthwhile venture. I imagine somebody just bought out a closing store or storage building and is clearing out the inventory.

The Chinese will fake anything that can make them a yuan.

Iirc, i have a little Buck with China on the blade base. Im thinking i heard they were having some numbers made there.

Yep, its a little Buck 379 with a sharpened down a fair bit blade with good spring, dark btown scales, and the old metal medallion with imprinted hammer on a knifes blade.

Yup.

The Buck 119 knife is investment grade. The price never drops. The bad thing is everybody knows it.


Buck 119

Im looking at a Behring.
But lot of $ for something small and easily lost.

As to their origin...Buck went overseas for awhile but then came back. I think current models are made here. That's not to say that even now, quite some time after their move back, there could be China models still in the pipeline.

There's a difference between a company having stuff made there and cheap fakes.

I live 25 minutes from the buck knife works. If you ever get to post falls idaho stop there and get a tour of the plant. They will sharpen you buck knife for you. I have a 110 folder that I bought at a yard sale and they put the blade back in great shape for me. Also carrey a buck every day.

I had one of those in the 60's but it came apart after several hunting trips where i camped out with buds who practiced knife and hatchet chunking at a big oak tree's trunk.

Dayom.

Thats correct.

I bought a delightful 283 Nano Bantam (Cat 10379) and lost it the first or second time I carried it, somehow. Just ordered and received its replacement a couple days ago, direct from Buck. It says USA right under the model number - and it's on sale now for $14. The box says "US Made of US and Import Parts". They charge $9 for Priority Mail shipping, but it's still a great little pocket knife for $20-ish.

I went to that sight, gave them my email addy and they sent me a coupon code for 20% off an order. I ordered two personalized knives for myself and my son, $122.12 delivered. Good deal.

Thanks for the link.

My wife says I'm a hoarder,I prefer the term "advanced collector".LOL
