Buck 389 Canoe Brown Jigged Bone Walmart Exclusive Pocket Knife

[@Ray.J]

Received mine today. Even nicer than I expected, even though reviews are positive. I love the golden hue of the bolsters. They must mix a little brass in with the nickel. Cuts like a champ. Scary sharp. Mine has a really strong pull, almost annoyingly strong. The knife comes with a very inspirational message from CJ Buck, something that resonated with me.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Glad you are enjoying your canoe, Ray. Thanks for the feedback.

[@chrisrey9644]

Got mine today from FedEx and I love it! Best $12 knife I've ever bought, no gapping, smooth transitions, evenish grinds and shaving sharp to boot! The only problem is that I popped it into my pocket and the shield popped out 😂😂😂 I couple drops of super glue later and I was happy again. Thanks for sharing this awesome find!

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Glad you got it fixed. Thanks for the feedback, Chris.

@@koskey06 that's awesome! It's my understanding that it's a common thing with these knives. At least I could glue it back in!

[@Ray.J]

Sold! Honestly, except for it being from China, it is a great value knife that punches above its weight. Wish they could move production to Taiwan or somewhere other than China though.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

If this is what Buck needs to do to survive, then I support their decision.

[@williammoore6953]

I agree the current Buck and Schrades are an extreme value, I just cannot do the China thing if there is another option. We each make a decision with every dollar we spend. As it should be,

I’ve had this knife for 5+ years now. I carry it off and on and it’s certainly a little beat up but the liners and springs are still tight and there’s zero blade play. It’s the knife that turned me onto canoes

Indeed, a great value knife and the canoe is an excellent pattern. Thanks, Toad.

[@garthtimmins2852]

I just got turned onto traditional style knives. Got mine from Walmart also, but it was $23.97. I like the pattern. Good looking knife. Not particularly sharp out of the box, but then I'm a bit obsessive about sharp knives. My coworkers used to kid me about my obsessively sharp knives. I always told them that a dull knife isn't good for much. A little work on a whetstone and a strop yielded a nice sharp edge. I think the spear point blade is a versatile design.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks for the feedback, Garth. It's good to know how to sharpen well. The knife I believe is only available at the lower price online. Take care.

[@Jodyrides]

I have maybe 25 knives, case, Spyderco, , buck, calamus, Queen cutlery that I bought at the factory north of Franklin PA about 25 years ago.. here’s the problem you buy a useful quality, made knife, and I end up not using it for anything because I’m afraid I will damage it. I have a small yellow case toothpick. I have a couple case, sodbusters, medium, and large. I have a. all stainless Spyderco that is the most dangerous looking knife I have ever seen even though the blade is only about 3 inches long if that. I don’t even wanna carry them in my pockets because I’m afraid I will scratch them against my keys… The knife I use all the time. A World War II era calamus electricians knife. It was on the enterprise aircraft carrier during World War II. It’s obviously been used, but it is solid and that’s the one I scrape gaskets with and cut cardboard boxes and open packages with all the time. The other knife I use always and it’s always with me is a small Spyderco stainless that fits on my key ring.. I am always opening packages, my mail, cutting tape, slicing into ketchup packets At Wendy’s with that tiny knife. It has been on my key ring for at least 15 years, always with me.

[@Nothingtoya]

Got this guy a little over a year ago from Ebay. It's a decent little knife. I do wish they would make more traditional knives in the USA. These are better built than your average Case.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

People who actually use these knives always say great things about them. Thanks, Nothing.

[@brandonzimmermann]

Good review. I have one myself from a box set that came with a small Solo a year ago or so. I have no problems with an overseas made knife, as Buck still does deliver quality and the majority of their line up still US made. My only complaint is the steel liner. Just looks wrong right against nickel silver, but that’s just me.

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

I prefer brass liners myself. Oh well. Thanks Brandon.

[@JoelPerri7777]

Geez, I almost bought that me of these used, on eBay for $20 and it was missing the shield. Kinda glad I didn’t as I love that jigged bone and that $11 price tag!

On the blade of the last one is a cross after the 389 instead of a square U with a dot in the U and it also has brass bolsters instead of nickel silver. Don't know what happened with that?? Nice knives for the $. One more thing I noticed neither blade had the china stamp like the other 3.

Thanks for the very pragmatic response. Welcome to the channel.

@@ThriftyKaniffy thanks, love the channel! Rough rider and Rosecraft really changed my mind on Chinese made knives. Found out about them largely in part to your channel.

@@artifacthunter Thanks, glad to hear you're enjoying the channel.

FYI: Walmart charges $9.00 shipping on these if your ordering online !

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Thanks, Main.

[@donaldstrader7241]

Thanks for the info. If I could walk into Walmart and grab it for the mentioned price, I would probably be tempted. It seems either way that price is not really available. Sigh. Of course, I don't really need another knife. LOL. I have plenty in the unused keybord drawer in front of me as I type this. 🙂 Thanks for the review Thrifty!

@@donaldstrader7241 Sometimes the great deals turn out to be not so great when you find out that a item advertised for a low price isn't available in stores, it's called "Come On" and it's been used by retailers since Jesus was a fire fighter !

Doesn't bother me that is made in China!! Still a good knife! I want the burl wood version!

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

$33 on Amazon. They look pretty darn nice. Thanks, Andrew.

Great knife for a great price ......it's a win , win . Great review . 👍

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Hard to wrong for under 12 dollars. Thank you, Michael.

[@marksaint2936]

Any idea which factories these and Rough Riders are made at?

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

This is a Buck knife. No idea the OEM, and likely by design as a part of the contract.

[@TheRadiogeek]

Very nice TK, a good value as well. What do you use to polish your knifes?

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

I typically use a product called, Flitz. Thanks for having a watch RadioGeek

[@latetodagame1892]

I just ordered an anvil! What you got there?

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

Just a small one for precision work.

@@ThriftyKaniffy yeah, mine is a little more than a pound. I'm going to use it for riveting leather. I'm over due. The dining table will be happy.

[@marksommers6089]

Checked Walmart web site, and the knife isn't listed- Too bad ..........

[@ThriftyKaniffy]

I'm still seeing it listed, just as out of stock. They come and go. www.walmart.com/ip/Buck-Knives-2-5-Pocket-Knife/141451633
