The first quarter is a very busy time for our sales and marketing team. We have some key trade shows and quite a number of consumer shows that really give us a chance to set our year off to a great start.

In early January Bob George, our Director of Sales and Marketing, Billy Bates “Special Projects” and I attended the Dallas Safari Club annual meeting in Dallas. They had about 70,000 attendees and we were able to interact directly with consumers who were purchasing Buck product that had already been sold to the Dallas Safari Club. It gives us a great chance to see just what consumers are attracted to in the most honest circumstance there is, just before giving us their money.

Two weeks later we were all at Shot Show in Las Vegas. This is a trade show so instead of interacting with customers we were now able to share what we had heard with our dealers.

We were home for a week before flying back to Vegas for the Rocky Mountain Elk annual meeting “Elk Camp” which was going on simultaneously with the Safari Club International Annual Convention. Since both RMEF and SCI were in Vegas we were able to split ourselves up and handle both shows. It was a bit of a stretch but we did well. The profits generated through the sales of product were donated to each organization. Buck making that donation really cemented our relationships with both.

The new product feedback we have received has been very positive.One line I am really excited about is the Haley Heath Adrenaline Series. This is a high performance line of performance products that are designed for the woman hunter. They are sized to fit a smaller hand and be deployed requiring less grip strength. We are using the best materials since high performance is the goal. They will be in the select (420HC), Avid (Sandvik) and Pro (S30V) blade steels.

We really fleshed out our Tactical assortment this year with a whole collection of Vantage Force’s in desert tan, Marine OD green and a camo pattern. We added a skeleton knife to the TOPS line with the Buck CSAR-T Liaison. It is a very beefy non-reflective blade with the hex hole and a screwdriver in a kydex sheath. We added a companion piece to the Hoodlum with the

introduction of the Punk. Ron Hood had worked with our engineering team solidifying this design before he passed away. It is the same powder coated 5160 carbon steel as the Hoodlum with linen Micarta handles and a sheath that resembles a shortened version of the Hoodlum sheath.

Something I am really excited about is that we are now carrying a line of made in the USA diamond sharpeners. This is a joint venture with Hewlitt Manufacturing, a Pennsylvania company that has been providing sharpeners to the food industry for two decades, with consistent size and shape of the diamond media (there is a course (325 grit), medium (750 grit) and fine (1200 grit). This line will grow as we add some additional innovative sharpening products next year.

The final product I am going to highlight today is the Travel Mate Kit. We took our spreader and added an anti-microbial plastic carry sheath that incorporates a fork, can opener, bottle opener, screw drive, and grill scraper tool in a very unique way.

As I write this we came in ahead of 2011 in January sales and should hold those gains through February.Here’s to another good year.cj

Heart Attack: Thursday February 16, 2012Emergency Triple By-pass surgery: Friday February 17, 2012We had driven to Medford, Oregon on February 9th for several speaking engagements over that weekend. Chuck spoke at a Men's Breakfast Saturday morning, February 11th... then on Sunday we both shared in 2 Sunday morning services plus we sat on a marriage panel following a noon dinner at the same church that day.We were both scheduled to speak at a Valentine's Sweetheart Banquet on the 14th in Grants Pass, OR but that event was unexpectedly cancelled. We drove the 11 hour trip home on Monday the 12th.At around 2 AM Thursday morning Chuck woke up extremely restless, sweating heavily and a strange ashen color. I took his blood pressure it was 55/34. Pulse a bit erratic and low though his blood oxygen was in the 90s. He had pain in his neck and jaw and said his arms felt heavy. He also had some lower digestive symptoms. We talked for a while, but felt the symptoms were more heart than flu so headed to the hospital ER.They immediately hooked him up to monitors, drew blood and treated him with nitroglycerin tablets which relieved the pain in the jaw and neck. Then they put him on a nitroglycerin drip (IV) and said he was being admitted to the hospital. He had an angiogram done around 3:30 PM and 15 minutes later the doctor was out with us and Chuck in the hall telling us that he had massive Coronary Artery Disease and would need immediate by-pass surgery, probably a quadruple by-pass. He made phone calls to locate a surgeon and Chuck's surgery was scheduled for the following day, Friday February 17 at noon. We were told he would have been gone in 2 more days. That statement chilled me to the bones!They took him back him to CICU (Cardiac Intensive Care Unit) where they kept him until his surgery.I came home and spent the night in ernest prayer asking the Lord to spare his life knowing that the answer could be "yes" or "no" depending if it was God's time to call him home. I desperately wanted the answer to be "yes" but had no sense of confirmation one way or the other. It was a miserable night plus it had begun to snow. We can get locked in up here with snow and ice so that was a major concern for me getting back to the hospital the next morning.The snow was no problem and I made it back to the hospital fine.He was in good spirits that morning. They took him down for surgery around noon and we as a family began our long wait in the surgical waiting room. it was 7:00 PM before the surgery was complete and they wheeled him back to CICU. The doctor had done a Triple by-pass procedure.Chuck remained on a respirator for about 8 or 9 hours in CICU before they brought him out from under the anesthetic and removed the breathing tube so he could breathe on his own. He had three large drainage tubes in his abdomen, a special tube in his neck to his heart for antibiotics and to monitor his heart, plus several IV sites and various other wires and tubes. He could scarcely move.The attached picture CJ took on day 2 in CICU when Chuck was up sitting in a chair and before they removed the major drainage tubes in the abdomen and the one in his neck. Tubes were removed on Sunday. Chuck could hold his eye open for maybe

half a sentence then his eyes would close and his head droop. We continued to have snow and ice so I stayed at a hotel across the street from the hospital which made it easy for me to come and gowithout slippery trips up to our house. Sarah and her little boy Tan (now almost 4) stayed with me at the hotel. They moved to Seattle in December and it was just one of God's great blessings that she had a trip already planned to come over and stay with us the Thursday Chuck went into the hospital. She and Maralee were a great help, getting my house in order; shopping and filling my pantry and refrigerator with groceries so all was prepared when he came home Wednesday, February 22.He has continued to improve every day though recovery is slow. Those who've had open heart know. His vital signs are all normal, no temp and he is following all the doctors instructions. If he should break the breastbone open it would be back to surgery for a repeat of open heart surgery only worse they told him. He cannot use his arms or hands-cannot reach, stretch or lift anything over 5 pounds and cannot drive for 4-6 weeks.Smoking we were told is the greatest contributor to this kind of Coronary Artery Disease but Chuck has never smoked. The doctor said the major cause in the Buck family is genetic. He's on a strict cardiac diet. With tears of appreciation streaming down our cheeks, we truly thank the Lord that he is still here and doing well in his recovery. So far there have been no complications.

Folding Hunters witH damascus blades by Joe Houser

I recently got my hands on a box from the discontinued model 110DB which is the Folding Hunter with a Damascus blade and jigged brown bone inlays. The box is so colorful and unique, showing the blade and front bolster on 3 sides, that it got my interest in the series. I decided it was time to roll up my shirt sleeves, warm up the computer and my coffee, and start researching. Initially I found out that we made 8 or 9 110’s with a Damascus blade. All of them were introduced in 1989 or 1990 and it appears that all of them were discontinued by 1991. With a fairly short run period, you can expect that these knives will be hard to find today. The interesting thing that I discovered was that only 3 of them ever appeared in a Buck catalog. The brownbone, Redbone, and stag handled versions are those 3 and understandably, they are the ones that Buck made the most of. The winner is the 110DM stag, with more than 13,000 made. The 110FD black fibron, will likely be the most difficult to find today with a production of only 250 knives. Information on this series of knives is not all that abundant. After digging through all available sources I have more questions now than answers. I am pretty sure that Buck did one, possibly the 110DMK or the 110FD, that was serialized. I have reason to believe that there is a model with nickel silver bolster and brown fibron inlays, but I can’t locate a model number in the archives. If you happen to have one of these, I would be very interested in anything you can share about it! I found date codes from 1988, 89, 90, and 91 stamped on the blades of the knives I inspected. I hope this first blush data sheet will be helpful and as always, if you have any information to add, please contact me so I can share it with all our members.

This edition I will cover the 700 series of knives. It was back in 1978 when David first started to inlay the handles of knives. Until David was fully transitioned over to knives from jewelry, he used the materials he had on hand. This allowed for many varieties of stonework to be found.

In this photo, the top left 705 is the earliest knife. The bottom two come next and have a Sunface engraved on the “front” side of the knife on the bolsters. The top right is a later example, with a design format

similar to those found on the 505s. David’s 1983 brochure included the “New” 700 series of knives. The 705 Pony was priced at $65, the 709 Yearling at $85, the 703 Colt at $105 and the 701 Mustang at $125. These knives had inlayed stones and were sold in the original Buck boxes. Later on, while associated with Buck Knives, David worked mainly on the 704.

The photo to the left shows the most popular 704s, the Horse on top, Buffalo in the center and the Coyote on the bottom. All came with mirror polished blades in the grey jewelry box with a cloth pouch, usually red. Starting in 4/1987, Buck Knives introduced the 704 Horse with a list price of $182, with 2600+ knives produced. Next up in

1/1989, the 704 Buffalo was offered for $201.60 with 2100+ knives made. A special offering of the 704 Eagle in a wooden display box was done in 5/1990 with less than 100 sold at a price of $254.54. Rounding out the “big” three designs was the 704

Coyote in the 1991 Buck catalog. This knife sold for $219.98 with 700+ sold. David developed a set of 4 knives for Sharper Image. Sharper Image went out of business before this project got going. The design theme was to be called the Wildlife Series with a Wolf, Cougar, Jumping Whitetail and Full Body Elk. A retail price of $798 was set for the Wildlife set.In the 1995-96 Yellowhorse Custom catalog, the above referenced Jumping Whitetail Deer was offered. Also, I have seen a Elk ( head only ) design on the 704. Yellowhorse Custom produced the 704 Regular Inlay for Price Costco in 6/1995 with 271 sold at $175.

The knives sold by Buck Knives came in a grey jewelry style display box and red cloth pouch. Later knives were sold with a darker colored, flat wooden display box. The 704 Regular

Inlay was sold in the Buck box with an amended end sticker. Although pictured and promoted as a set, the 112, 102 and 704 were not packaged together by Buck, but they were glad to sell any individual a set of the 3 knives. The above introduction dates, pricing and quantities reflect only what was sold by Buck Knives when David was producing knives for them. David works hard to produce his artistry for customers, so it is entirely possible to find additional custom designs offered.

micHael Prater – an artisan

witH a cHerokee HigH Priest blessing Michael Prater owns the largest after market knife handle company in the United States, which is located in Flintstone, Georgia just south of Chattanooga, TN. It’s called Painted Pony Designs and has been in business since 2003. The company specializes in customizing handles from several knife companies, including selected models from Buck. As a result of his working with Buck Knives, he has also become a friend of the Buck Collectors Club. His talent has caught the eye of many members. Even though Painted Pony Designs is only 9 years old, Michael’s love of knives and working with them began years earlier. He remembers vividly as a youth his carrying a knife on the school bus, as well as to class. Knives were a part of Michael’s everyday life on the farm. He made his first knife in 1981 while managing a large grocery store in Chattanooga and his newly found skill has grown steadily ever since. Michael was born near Seneca, South Carolina in 1952. His father was a salesman, who also had a small farm, and at 82, still works at that trade. Five children were born to Julian and Mary Jo – 3 girls and 2 boys. The county was a farming area and many of Michael’s relatives were farmers. He was expected to help with picking cotton, peaches, and grapes, as well as planting and harvesting 30 acres of tomatoes. When he turned 16 he started to work in a grocery store as a bag boy and in 1976, he moved to Chattanooga, TN as a store manager. The move was a big change for him, but he did have relatives on his mother’s side of the family who lived in the area. His great grandmother was Cherokee. Michael became interested in making knives in 1980, and met a local knife maker, David North, who soon became Michael’s mentor as he learned and perfected his skills. He remarked, “My first two knives were garbage, but the third one was pretty good.” Michael and David formed a company in 1983 – North and Prater Knives. After six years together, Michael bought out North and formed his own

company – Prater Knives. By 1989, he had become a full time maker. Then, in 1999 he became more interested in re-handling knives and turned his talent toward a more economical venture. He had developed an imitation material called Mica Pearl, which soon caught the attention of the knife industry. Today, the Company markets that material thru a subsidiary called Fantasy Pearls. Michael, his wife Carolyn and daughter Rhonda, along with their employees are very busy. Annually they produce 30 - 50,000 products that are shipped worldwide. Painted Pony itself creates about 2500 pieces a year. Michael indicated that they do work for individuals like members

of BCCI, as well as the Painted Pony Collectors Club. They will do one piece or many for a person or club. Michael has been a good supporter of BCCI with donations for various Club events. He has demonstrated his skills at various Club events. When asked about the BCCI Club, he was quick to indicate that, “The members are some of the nicest people in the world and they are dedicated to Buck Knives. It’s also a pleasure to work with Buck.” BCCI salutes Michael Prater for his skill and great talent in providing knife enthusiasts with quality products. Perhaps there is another reason for the success of Painted Pony. When the company moved into their current facility in Flintstone, a Cherokee High Priest gave Michael, his family and the factory a special Cherokee blessing. His Cherokee background has also helped create a special bond between Michael and another great friend of BCCI – David Yellowhorse. Michael considers him a brother.

Well BCCI club members here I go again… Here are parts from my book. (All copyrighted but I want to share it with my fellow Buck club members) BUCK Knives had been considering making survival knives for some time. In the early 1980s, Buck Knives was looking for a product to spark the dull knife market they were in. CJ Buck received a call from Harry Camphuysen – no emails back then. Harry owned Jerry’s Military and Sporting Goods in Oceanside, California. He was also a dealer for BUCK Knives, and his pawn shop was not that far from his Qual-A-Tech/PHROBIS LTD shop. Harry worked many hours at his pawn shop. Mickey always wanted Harry to sell Jerry’s Military and Sporting Goods. Harry never did. He arranged for a meeting to show the First Generation prototype survival knives to CJ Buck. CJ was known as Chuck Buck Jr. at that time. He was fresh out of college and now in charge of all the Special Projects for Buck Knives, which involved special orders and the newer Buck Custom Shop. The first response to the “Survival Knife Project” from Buck’s engineers was that this knife was simply not feasible to produce. However, with the expertise of their engineering staff and the support and enthusiasm of Buck’s management, they soon had the means to economically produce a $400 to $500 (retail) Custom Buck survival knife. This survival knife project was kept under wraps. The Buck engineers worked with the now PHROBIS R and D team to make a few changes right away. These changes became the second Generation prototype BuckMasters. Buck’s senior engineer at this time was Randy Morton.Randy remembers: “My first visit to Qual-A-Tec ( PHROBIS LTD) was an eye-opener. As I walked down this long hallway to meet Bob MacDonald, I noticed two open doors leading into other offices, one on the right and another on the left. These two offices were across the hallway from each other. As I approached them I first looked to my left and saw a rifle set up on a test stand with a silencer on it, and I stopped immediately and backed up a step not to be in the line of fire. I then looked to my right and saw inside the opposite office a box and trap set up to stop the bullet. There were no signs or warning tape anywhere just open doors. This was a little unusual for me and did make me very careful as I left and entered Qual-A-Tec in the future.” All the BuckMasters from now on were a collaboration between PHROBIS LTD. and Buck Knives.

The Second Generation Survival Knife PROTOTYPE was stamped either with a PHROBIS Dolphin or BUCK KNIVES XXXX with SCALLOPS added on the front champher instead of the TEETH. Only 10 were made like this. The SECOND Generation Prototype blades with BUCK KNIVES XXXX was stamped by Buck Knives at the factory, and the PHROBIS stamped blades were stamped at PHROBIS LTD before they were heat treated by Paul Bos.On the SECOND Generation Survival Knife, this chamfer change from teeth to scallops, recalls Rick McDonald. “Chuck Buck SR was walking through the PHROBIS LTD Shop and told Rick’s dad Bob McDonald. “Bob, we can’t do that style with teeth all the way to the front of that blade per our engineers.” Bob replied, with a smile: “I wish they would have told me that.” (Bob really was that good-RN) Per Randy Morton “On my first visit to Qual-a-Tec I meet Harry Camphuysen, Bob MacDonald and Doug Olson. I found all three of these men to be irreplaceable in the years ahead, working as the project contact for Buck with Qual-a-Tec and Phrobis. Bob was, and I still consider a genius in the machine shop. He could make anything on a mill or lathe. For him, the impossible only took a little longer. Bob was also a very sharp designer, especially in the field of ballistic silencers. Harry was a “get-it-done-now” kind of guy and one you could always count on when others fall by the wayside. Doug was and, I am sure, still is an innovative leader in the field of Tactical Weapons and Gear.” The SEALS tested the First Generation Survival Knives and found that the teeth of the FIRST Generation Survival Knife didn’t cut wet rope. Rick and CJ remember this well. Rick had a 3-inch rope in a vise and dry the blade cut through it like butter. However when wet with salt water it was almost useless. The SEAL’s of SEAL Team Three needed a knife that works great in a maritime environment. Mickey and a few SEAL’s (Like Cmdr Coulter) came up with the idea to add Scallop’s to overcome

this problem. This is why the scallops on the front champher were born and were continued on the SECOND Generation Survival Knifes even to the production models.

SECOND GENERATION Survival Knife PROTOTYPE – “PHROBIS stamped”. On reverse side, stamped 0005. This one was given to Leroy Remer by Harry Camphuysen and Mickey FinnThese SECOND Generation Survival Knife PROTOTYPE blades were all made by hand by Leroy Remer at the Buck Custom Shop . He cut them out and Art Acuna helped cut out the teeth and scallops. The un-heat treated blades were given back to PHROBIS LTD . Then Robert and Rick MacDonald finished the blades sending them back to Buck Knives to be heat treated by Paul Bos to perfection. After heat treating, the blades were returned to PHROBIS LTD where Rick and Bob assembled these knives with all hand made parts. Out of these ten Survival Knives, five were BUCK Knives XXXX stamped; five were PHROBIS Dolphin stamped. Three of these ten knives had all Titanium parts, including handle, quillion/crossguard, anchor pins and pommel. All three of those Titanium knives were made by Rick MacDonald. Rick learned how to make the quillions by this time with ease. His Father Robert was a great teacher and Rick was a great student..Hope You enjoyed this.

PlaN Now For BCCI 25 year aNNIVersary eVeNt!When: July 30 – August 2, 2013

Where: Post Falls, Idaho – Spokane Valley

The BCCI 25 Year Anniversary Committee has been hard at work

planning the best club anniversary event yet. If you have attended

previous club special events, you know it will take a great deal

to “out-perform” the fantastic events our club has previously

sponsored. Never fear, the 25 year anniversary party will be better.

We are even planning to start a day earlier just to allow sufficient time to pack-in all of the great

features we have on the drawing board. From our Kick-off Banquet on Tuesday evening, July

30 until the closing picnic at the home of Chuck and Lori Buck on Friday afternoon, August 2,

this celebration promises to make our 2013 Silver Anniversary sparkle.

We are planning informative new seminars, fantastic event related Buck knives for sale, great

meals and fellowship, demonstrations by your favorite Buck artisans, an enhanced Buck Factory

tour, a Knife Show and Swap with all Buck Knives’ employees invited to participate, raffles and

auctions, a special Lake Coeur d’Alene dinner and cruise, interaction with Chuck and CJ Buck

plus other key Buck Knives’ employees, member displays and more!!!

Watch for more information in upcoming BCCI newsletters.
