I think you're going to like the Buc! What style/finish did you go with?
@Frizzlefry75 жыл бұрын
Bikes & Blades same exact as yours! I just wanted a sneak peek 👍

Very cool. I have a Buc in the same color combination and a blacked-out Spyderco PPT sprint from a couple years ago. The PPT might be my all-time favorite Spyderco, and I carry a very well-worn PM2 to work every day.

I got my PPT second-hand; I think it was an eBay purchase. The factory scales weren't quite right, so I contacted CuScaDi in Germany and had a custom set made. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6uxqISgqd2Bo9E Now it's my all-time favorite knife!

Been carrying mine a coupe weeks now, absolutely love the clip (not a fan of steel clips). That finger choil is genius, works fantastic for fine wood work. Your right, the frame could be a little larger.

The Buc remains one of my favorite knives, to this day.

Cool vid man! I like how we felt similarly about some aspects, but differently on others. Neat to hear a different perspective. 👍🏻

That's what I enjoy most about the KZbin community; the ability to see a lot of different opinions and perspectives.

This knife is available again on Massdrop, with some new handle treatments: www.massdrop.com/buy/massdrop-x-ferrum-forge-buc

If you like this knife, Massdrop now has a new drop for the Ferrum Forge "Dao" which seems to be a sheepsfoot variant of the Buc: www.massdrop.com/buy/massdrop-x-ferrum-forge-dao-titanium-frame-lock?referer=EYM7SH&mode=guest_open&Automated%20Daily%20Promotional%202018-08-29&SparkPost&Daily%20Promotional&.024881033764019999642052

I'm pretty sure that clip is titanium. I doubt if it is going to crack but maybe.I just ordered this 12/31/2019
@BikesBlades5 жыл бұрын
I agree, it's a titanium clip. I've been carrying the Buc almost daily since I got it, and the clip is holding up perfectly.

This reminds me a little bit of the olamic whippersnapper. I wonder if the whippersnapper is worth three times or more the price of this one? I'm going to ask around
@BikesBlades3 жыл бұрын
The Ferrum Forge knives are really, really good. I don't have any other knife with better action or better fit and finish than the Buc. Olamic has some really good-looking knives, and I am sure they are very good quality too - but you would be hard-pressed to beat Ferrum Forge for value.

Slender handles while very attractive to me and something a lot of designers incorporate into their designs are almost a given to cause lock stick, I would guess that this knife being a WE knife has a steel insert, please confirm.
@BikesBlades5 жыл бұрын
It does have a steel lock-bar insert.

Is the lock up good? Any blade play
@BikesBlades6 жыл бұрын
The lockup is great, and there is zero blade play, even when the lock bar is pressed aside so the detent ball is not pressing on the blade. I'm very happy with this knife and I carry it almost daily.
