What Are Your Top 5 Buck Knives?

[@JimLander]

I got my first Buck in 1972. I was a new member of the 1/506th infantry. The Buck 112 was short enough to be carried at Fort Campbell and tough enough to meet the demands I would put on it. I have been a Buck man every since that time.

[@keithsteffen2353]

Great picks but though the buck 192 vanguard is iconic as well

[@0rin]

IMHO, 110 and 119 should be in everyone's top 5 Buck Knives.

[@SMKWcom]

We agree Ayvan!

[@UltraMAGAandproudofit]

You are not wrong.

[@daye8132]

Love the 110 and 119❤❤!! And the 301 is a little knife 🔪 that hits above it's weight class 🎉🎉

[@danieljaymeshansel5086]

I’d HIGHLY recommend the 192 Vanguard. Not only beautiful but also has the feel of a big handle and blade knife but a little more controllable size. It’s kinda like a cross between the 102 and 105 sizes with the handle feel of a 119.

[@Robbie7441]

i don't think that buck gets the recognition it deserves, thanks smkw for sharing 👍🏻👍🏻❤️

[@SMKWcom]

Thank you Robbie! Some of the most iconic knives in history have come from this company!

[@JimLander]

I agree, if it is a Buck, it is better!

[@georgeveneziano2754]

I disagree only a little they get there just desserts more then you know I can't think of anybody who doesn't know BUCK. come on now.

[@tomweingart2337]

THE BUCK 110 IS THE GREATEST FOLDING KNIFE OF ALL TIME KNOWN TO MAN ‼️

[@SMKWcom]

There is an argument to be made for that one, thanks for watching Tom!

[@ElGranRojo903]

The 110, 119, 103, 301 and the 112 slim select are my top 5

[@SMKWcom]

All great choices!

[@ozzlayer]

Buck 112 (classic), Buck vantage pro, Buck 119, Buck 0616 and Buck 124.

[@SMKWcom]

Nice lineup 👍

[@bubba92473]

Thanks for sharing TC

[@SMKWcom]

You bet Marcos! Thank you for watching!

[@marklawrence855]

Just ordered the 112 ,can't wait to get it 😊

[@SMKWcom]

Love the 112!

[@joekasperek1086]

Good stuff TC, love what buck has been doing to stay competitive. Just picked up the Huxby and really liking it

[@SMKWcom]

Thank you Joe for watching and enjoy that Huxby!

[@happiertimesarecoming9969]

My first Buck Knife was a 112, I bought in the hardware store my Mother worked…in ‘72. I NOW OWN OVER 500 ! (4 Klinkhamer Series, FIRST SERIES 122s (23 in fact) and many more)

[@SMKWcom]

That is an awesome knife memory!

[@happiertimesarecoming9969]

Correction…I own 23 FIRST RUN 112s along with many 110 ANNIVERSARY RUNS, and of course my Klinkhamer Series 1 and 2

[@georgeveneziano2754]

​@@SMKWcomwhat's a klinkhamer

[@willglo]

Don't forget the Buck 124 Frontiersmen... My favorite go-to fixed blade. The Buck 120 General is also great.

[@SMKWcom]

Thank you for watching Will and great additions to the list!

[@georgeveneziano2754]

124 awesome knife tops

[@joethompson3418]

As a personal favorite, I hold the 5XX series. I’ve carried them since I saw the first 501. The only one in my small collection that’s been with me the whole time is the 501 and the blade is getting narrower all the while until I took pity on it and retired it. The others, 500, 503, and 505, I’ve owned and either lost or given away. Finally, I have all four back in my display case and rotate them into and out of my EDC set. As they’ve been used and abused, they’ve all gotten a Buck spa treatment and don’t look like beaters any more. Not all will agree but along with about a dozen other Bucks (including the 110 etc), the 5 series takes my vote.

[@nathanwood4697]

Man, loving those buck knives!🔪 Thanks for the showing dude's.🎩

[@SMKWcom]

Absolutely Nathan! Thank you for watching!

[@mikecurtis2585]

Great choices! I like the 110and112! That 119is nice to!

[@SMKWcom]

Thank you Mike! You just can't go wrong with those!

[@MrPerry61]

I only have two. A 192 Vanguard with a custom sheath, and a 251 Langford. the 251 is imported but I'd put it up against a US made of similar design.

[@UltraMAGAandproudofit]

I love the 722/726 spitfire. I carry it everyday. 722 is the regular size and 726 is the mini. Depending on what I’m wearing or doing that day, I pick either one. 90% of the time it’s the larger 722. But man I love that knife.

[@SMKWcom]

Buck makes some awesome blades!

[@georgeveneziano2754]

I own the 722 I Like it as well. Great knife sharp as hell.

[@JimLander]

Top five? 119, for sure along with the 110/112, the stockman knives, in all sizes. I prefer the bigger model. Next, I go for the 124 Frontier. Finally, the auto you chose does it for me.

[@SMKWcom]

Great line up!

[@roberthahn3710]

Buck Kawlinga, 112,110, 119, 124

[@SMKWcom]

Awesome line up!

[@kniceslice780]

Great selection TC! The Sprint Pro Burlap was in my pocket all weekend, love it! I just got the finger groove 112, 50th edition, love it! I would have included my GCK spearpoint and 104 Compadre, both 5160. How do you keep it to 5?

[@SMKWcom]

Thank you Slice! That Sprint Burlap is something special and good additions to the list with the GCK and Compadre. T.C. has a very hard time keeping it to 5 and usually deliberates for hours.🤣

[@dougware3629]

Can't argue. Good listing. I also strongly favor the Spitfire but while I love the 110/112 and 119/120, in recent times, my absolute favorite Buck is the Marksman. Not only a good folder but crazy fidget addictive. However, it's no longer in production. I guess it wasn't a good seller but seems to come out regularly, once a year as one of the specials, in the Buck-of-the-Month series.

[@SMKWcom]

We love how the fidget factor is now a major knife consideration 👍

[@propblast82nd]

The Buck Paradigm is a cool 🔪knife

[@SMKWcom]

It's been really popular and for good reason!

[@ColoradoStreaming]

The 656 Pursuit Pro Large is my favorite knife by Buck. Its not a 'pretty' knife but its a well balanced workhorse and feels right on the hip. I like the all business orange color too. I always have it on my belt in the woods and use my 346 Vantage for everyday carry.

[@SMKWcom]

Tha Vantage is a great carry

[@JimLander]

The Buck 124 Frontier is Buck’s top fixed blade in my mind. The 110 is their best folder, especially in some of the newer iterations.

[@georgeveneziano2754]

I've had bucks all my life and nothing gonna change it I'm getting older now but still love my bucks I have probably 8 0r 9 buck knifes 🔪 from fixed to folder my latest is bucks first push button open an close. It's awesome wrks really nice now my EDC.

[@tubamaster]

Nailed the list. Love to see manner and Cold Steel next.

[@SMKWcom]

That's a great idea! Thanks for watching!

[@rogerholder7132]

I just bought a 112 50th

[@mattcheser6551]

119 and a 110. Only knives you really need. Everything else is just for fun.

[@SMKWcom]

Great choices!

[@daye8132]

Top 3; 301 ( I EDC it every day), 110, and 119. With these there is really nothing you can't handle. 😅

[@lxixg9]

PBS portable butcher shop is the smallest package with everything I need to completely take care of an elk in the field

[@SMKWcom]

If it takes care of an elk and comes back for more it is a good one 👍

[@ilijabosnjak76]

1963 Buck 110 was born and the rest is history...

[@SMKWcom]

No school like the old school

[@sjbrakke]

I love BUCK Knives. A USA treasure.

[@SMKWcom]

💯

[@JohnnyQ714]

GREAT BUCK list TC!!!!

[@SMKWcom]

Thanks for watching!

[@fishingmaster99]

Buck 656 pursuit large fixed knife

[@SMKWcom]

Buck has some awesome knives!

[@byronkennedy7912]

Great video, TC. I think you did the brand justice while promoting their innovation (whaaaaat? BUCK ? modern?). Thanks for the share. Can one call themselves a knife collector without at least 2 Bucks in the lot?

[@SMKWcom]

Thank you Byron! And if someone doesn't have at least two, its time!

[@billruber2861]

Good list

[@SMKWcom]

Thanks Bill!

[@josephmcdonald764]

I would have chosen the 124 over the 119/120.

[@davidvance3527]

👍😎

[@SMKWcom]

Thanks for watching David!

[@philwistrom9200]

Buck 662 Alpha Scout Elite

[@dionpage7948]

Killer blades&killer vid knife bro!!

[@SMKWcom]

Thank you Dion and thanks for watching!

[@koreybrown6787]

Top case knifes next tc

[@SMKWcom]

We've got that one on the list to do soon, thank you for watching Korey!

[@davidstrickler6570]

Pocket clips belong on ink pens not knives.

[@SMKWcom]

That is one way to look at it

[@rogerholder7132]

Those were very nice

[@victortriolo3627]

U had that 112 Buck WITH FINGER GROVESFOR ONLY 59.95 ! FINGER GROVES ?

[@inupik23]

I would swap the top two personally.

[@SMKWcom]

Great list can always be moved and debated

[@MrMagicMike93]

110,112

[@jocemarine6247]

Buck ??? What a cheap Compagny. I bought over 1000.00 of their knifes. I stoped working because I am very sick. So I wrote to them asking if they could give me the 843 Sprint model. It was like à dream for me. I have a cancer stage 4. They answer like an automatic reply that time are hard and blablabla. Their cost is probably around 50.00. Because of that, all my family, friends and all the followers of them are all saying: DON'T BUY BUCK. For 50.00 they will loose thousands dollards. I was soooo disapoint of the Cie that was tatoo on my chest😢

[@stevechristensen9171]

This should be a 6-minute video. You waste so much time hum-haing around and saying absolutely nothing of value or interest. People who watch KZbin videos want information, they do not want to listen to you babble. Have a script, make sure everything you say is valuable information and STICK TO IT!
