Buck Trunk

[@peppereddingo9339]

Hey Count! Thanks for the closer look. Haven't seen this one before. A few minutes tinkering may improve the action? Have a good week. ATB, Dingo

[@cb__tactical5015]

@peppereddingo9339 Thank you, Dingo! I'm gonna try and adjust the action, and if I get it better, I'll try and do a follow up video.

[@groundfog]

That’s an interesting offering from Buck.

[@cb__tactical5015]

@groundfog I agree, but I feel like Buck should be able to make a capable modern. It's just like here is a design it has a flipper and thumb studs, and it will open. Then they don't test if it works or not. To me, it's just a bump on a frogs ass, a useless thing, lol.

[@TeeFetch]

slices...that's a plus for a knife

[@cb__tactical5015]

@TeeFetch lol, yeah. I never doubted Buck's grind. I just think they need to do more R&D on flippers and how they work.

[@byronkennedy7912]

Thanks, CB. Agree a flipper knife should ... flip.

[@cb__tactical5015]

@byronkennedy7912 agreed, Byron. I love Buck, but they need to test their products before signing off for production. Right now, the flipper tab is as about as useful as a bump on a frogs butt.

[@jeffjackson5331]

That is a sweet looking knife. I like the looks of it. I love cleaver style blades, they are good food prep. You take care of your wrist my friend. You and your family have a wonderful day and a wonderful week. God Bless

[@cb__tactical5015]

@jeffjackson5331 I agree. I love Buck, but they need more R&D for their flippers.

@jeffjackson5331 ok, my wife runs that email. I will ask her to look it up.

@@jeffjackson5331 I'll check ot out thank you.

[@JoseGonzalez-yx6vm]

Very nice for the price, it is just one of those knives that need a wrist flick to open, they need to figure out their design for a more decent flip, thanks for the review, CB.

[@cb__tactical5015]

@JoseGonzalez-yx6vm well unfortunately a flick of the wrist is pretty painful right now. Which makes it annoying for me, ya know.

[@jasonbeecher509]

Great looking knife. Reasonable price. I would if some mineral oil would help. Have a wonderful day today brother

[@cb__tactical5015]

@jasonbeecher509 I'm gonna try and tune it when I find the time, so we will see. If I get it right, I will do a follow up video.

[@jasonbeecher509]

@cb__tactical5015 sounds like a plan brother

[@cb__tactical5015]

@jasonbeecher509 you have a great week, Jason!

[@dwayneletterman3987]

At least Buck is trying , Kinda !

[@cb__tactical5015]

@@dwayneletterman3987 I agree, but I feel like a company as old and big as Buck could figure it out. It seems like most of the flippers they release don't flip, lol.

[@fyrehawkSix]

I have always loved Buck knives. However, I am disappointed with the new thumb studs and flipper tabs. I have a buck 110 lite with a thumb stud which is almost impossible to open with one hand. I think Buck should do a better job on these new fangled designs.

[@cb__tactical5015]

@fyrehawkSix they are trying to do moderns, but they haven't found the "Riddle of Steel" for flippers yet.

[@fyrehawkSix]

@@cb__tactical5015 Yeah, but I am sure American ingenuity will prevail. They make awesome knives.

[@shamuscollins5861]

I like the blade shape. I wonder if it could be oiled up & the pivot adjusted to get a good flip.

[@cb__tactical5015]

@shamuscollins5861 I'm gonna try and get it to flip properly. I'm gonna work with the action, and if I get it better, I will do a follow-up video.

[@ElCapAddict]

It’s been a while for you since you’ve done an upload- I have all is well and you had a good holiday weekend. 👍

[@cb__tactical5015]

@ElCapAddict I apologize for taking so long. My mother fell and broke 3 ribs. She has been in and out of the hospital, and I have been trying to remodel my house to accommodate her to live here. I will be back Friday, hopefully.

[@ElCapAddict]

@@cb__tactical5015 I’m sorry to hear that, CB 🫶. I hope I haven’t made you feel any pressure to return-just noticed you haven’t uploaded and thought about you. Take your time. I took care of someone with a couple of rib fractures that caused a collapsed lung and pneumonia (post hospital, they were there for ~8 days or so). Coughing is rough with broken ribs so I hope your mom doesn’t get any complications.

[@colbyvenable8193]

Looks like it would be a good EDC workhorse. Too bad the action is not better. Do you think tearing it down and cleaning it up or tuning it would help?

[@cb__tactical5015]

@colbyvenable8193 I'm gonna try, but you have to feel it. It feels like it's not pendulumed well. Idk, I love Buck, but they haven't got the functionality of a flipper down very well. I definitely give em an A for effort though.

[@HighRoad317]

I would own one, just needs some tlc.

[@cb__tactical5015]

@HighRoad317 Yeah, but right out of the box, it shouldn't need attention, in my opinion. I'm going to try and tweak it and see if it gets better.

[@Paul_Kasper]

Yep, a flipper should flip, lol.

[@cb__tactical5015]

@Paul_Kasper that's not asking much, ya know.

[@robosteveo]

Can you tune the action on that thing at all?

[@cb__tactical5015]

@robosteveo I'm going to try and get it better, and if I do, I will do a follow up video.

[@rolfrobertson6404]

Good morning, i would have to say out of all the knives I've seen since i joined this channel. This one is a dud . The blade style, not for me. It just looks and sounds cheesy. Have a great week brother.

[@cb__tactical5015]

@rolfrobertson6404 I understand. It's not my favorite either. I thought it looked like it might be a beefy edc, but I don't like the action on it.

[@rolfrobertson6404]

You know, the more I've been researching knives now , I think that blade style may have a purpose in my newly started collection thanks to you. Lol , yeah I caught the bug. I haven't ever collected anything before, so why not knives. Can't wait to see new content brother. Have a great labor day.
