That surely illustrates the variety of sizes available in the Buck 300 series knives.

Congratulations.

A great series of knives. Really like the 300 series, as well as the 700's.

Pretty much an American Classic pocket knife lineup. Nice.

Most of them were purchased in the 80"s , not sure if the large " Wrangler " is even available anymore

I agree

I liked the series a lot more, before  Buck took over the actual production themselves

For instance: the newer 301 and 303 models have three backsprings, instead of the two backsprings used originally
by Schrade and Camillus ( they made the 300 series  for Buck, mostly Camillus, if all my research is accurate)
Not a big deal, but I like the traditional pattern with the two secondary blades sharing one of the two backsprings
But thats just one man's opinion

True, it does have the effect of making the 301 feel a bit fatter in the hand. Love mine anyway. :tu: The 371 is also an excellent knife for the money. A 371 was my EDC folder for years.

Love the two stockmen patterns,great little knives. Saying that,I'd like to try the American built over the Chinese.
There is no beginning,or ending,and for this we are thankful,cos now is hard enough to understand!
