Sweet!

I had a black one but sold it (and kicking myself for doing so!) and then managed to get a stainless one to replace it.  It's not bnib, but it's still a great tool!  I'd love to see Buck re-introduce this tool.

Nice one mate. :tu: The BuckTool was the first tool -- and actually the first thing in general --  I had tried to buy off of the internet. Paid via bank transfer and never actually received it. This was all back in '96-'97 but I still get a bit jumpy every time I see a pic of it... :-\

Ugh. Your toes should be worn to bloody stumps by now then. ;)

Here's a fine pair. :) The one on the left is just passing through....

I tried to make some pics of my Bucktool with my mobile phone but all of them came out too crappy to post them!  ::) :D Oh well, there are already a lot of good pics in this thread so I guess it doesn´t matter that much...

Today I have handled it the first time again since at least 12 years and I have to say that I really like the look of it. I also like the small signs on its handle which show which tools are in which handle. And if I remember right it was one of the first mt with a lock release button. But this is already all I like... Mine has got a fully serrated and a partially serrated blade which is imo a very "unhappy" combination. A plain and fully serrated blade or only a half serrated blade and a file or saw would have been much better. This said, it neither has a file nor a saw. Instead it has a lot of single flat screwdrivers plus two 3D Phillips screwdrivers. Some of them could have been integrated into a can or bottle opener like SOG or Victorniox do it. Other than that, all tools of my Bucktool have some play and if I squeeze the open handles while using the pliers, they touch each other in the middle easily. Imo the whole tool is just not really thought out and feels way to flimsy...

Being a collector, it is nice to have one but I will never ever edc it for sure!!


Sorry for my bad english and I hope you got my points!  :D
