So which Buck model will you go after next?

Post by: 665ae on July 08, 2007, 10:08:43 PM: I want to get a 360 with the normal finish and then a 360 with the Camo finish. My goal for right now is just to collect the ones that look different. After that, I'll decide if I'm going to go after the 360's with the different tool configurations :)

Post by: J-sews on July 09, 2007, 05:30:56 AM: He's probably off scuba diving somewhere again, or out on the golf course. (Or both. ;)) I'll let him know you're still interested.

In the mean time, congrats again on scoring the elusive black 350!

What are your thoughts on the 350? I can't decide if I should get one or not. ???

P.S. Is the 350 coated with black oxide so that the little guy doesn't reflect light during military ops? ;D

Post by: 665ae on July 09, 2007, 06:33:44 PM: The 350 is a nice little tool. It works well for really small jobs. I used to carry the normal finish 350 every day. It didn't get much use.

Here's some pics...

I'll try to remember to do that tomorrow... that is, if I can find my Micra :)

Post by: supratentorial on July 10, 2007, 05:30:50 PM: I'm "behaving" myself and I didn't order the 350. I typically carry a small Swiss army knife and a medium or large multi-tool and that combination works pretty well for me. The Buck 350 is surely a neat little tool and 350BK is definately a nice addition to a collection. Spoonrobot got his 350 from felinevet (a banner advertiser on this site) but I'm not sure if felinevet has the 350BK--they aren't too common. I did happen to find a small stash (3) of them over at www.Bladematrix.tv if anyone is interested. The feedback for Bladematrix on resellerratings.com isn't very good but I spoke with the owner on the phone today (regarding a different item) and he seems like a good guy. I placed a small order with Bladematrix today and don't expect any problems. ...BTW, nice photos 665ae!
