@charliedontsurf7360

Yeah, they should've just re-released the 184, if they were going to re-imagine it the least they could've done to pay homage to it is utilize the exact same blade shape/design, cross guard, and make it full tang this time around in a modern steel. Should've made 3 models. One limited run EXACTLY like the old ones, but in updated blade steel. And a re-imagined version as I previously described, same blade shape, cross guard, but full tang handle. One new re-imagined model smoothe, with flat spine. And one new version with sawback spine. Whatever that abortion they are calling a "Buckmaster" is a travesty.

Imports 🤦🏻 Never lead off with imports. IT'S BUCK !

I've heard people who are knife reviewers actually rave about certain knives done in 7cr, I think it all comes down to the heat treatment. I highly doubt Buck which is known for their heat treats would put a blade that doesn't hold a edge on a $60 msrp knife. I don't care for the knives but they have to pass QC to get the Buck name.

I like how the Buck guy had to pretend those button locks had good action.

I dont understand how buck stays in business. The classics are great (love my 119 and 112) but every time they're like "we have something new and exciting" it's always something that everyone else has been doing for years in an outdated steal and they charge an arm and a leg for it. They're like the Windows Explorer of knife companies

That is the perfect analogy. Always so late to the game with worse materials and quality. So unfortunate for a legacy brand like buck.

I have the buckmaster 184 original and I don't use it for anything it's just a conversation peice and I love it it's a part of history

7CR ? WTF BUCK ?

It would be so nice if you could actually see the Knife during the demonstration

As a Buckmaster owner and huge fan, I’m disappointed in what they are calling a Buckmaster. It’s nothing like the original Buckmaster. If I saw that knife sitting on a table, the word Buckmaster would not come to mind. Either bring back the 184, or do something that truly pays tribute to the knife. Something that resembles the original, other than the name. And price it reasonably. What I see with fixed blades (this is why the Topps table is always busy), prices above $200 start running off a lot of buyers. I’ve bought a lot of Topps knives in the $120 to $140 range. I saw someone posted the 2.0 price is $800. LOL! No thanks. A nice looking tribute, maybe $400. And he kept calling the knife a dive knife. The original was never marketed as a dive knife. I have a collection of vintage and new dive knives, none of them look like the new Buck. It’s very confusing what Buck was trying to do here… And very disappointing.

420 is a bottom of the barrel steel as well. I can’t understand why such a legend of a knife maker continues to put out such garbage. If they sold their popular knives in 420HC as a budget option that would be one thing, but the majority of their blades are garbage as far as modern knives go and if it’s anything better than 420hc it’s ridiculously expensive just because of the name. But to each their own I suppose.

Bought my Kalinga back in 1988, and I still have it. Looks better with the Rose wood handles and brass hardware.

Love the new Buckmaster. I purchased a black phosphated Buckmaster new back in the early 1980s and still have it in my collection

They need to cancel that production order and go back to the drawing board on that.

Buck: why on Earth would you put a massive slot at the most stressed part of the blade? No one will _ever_ use the "anchor", and you've catastrophically weakened the blade. How did this make it through the design phase?

The new Buckmaster will definitely be a collector item. Have you checked the price? They need to fire the designer. Years in the making? Blade steel choice? Doofy tie down? I am sticking with Esee.

When he mentions the pocket clips are reversible and/or removable and it gets you thinking... "How about the blade steel?"

What the buck dude.

i didnt know the deploys were hollow ground! super nice. want one even more now

I wish they would start producing the little 1.5" buck. Sometimes you just want the ability to cut, not the ability to kill a bear.

The orange thingy reminds me of a Gerber air frame. I hate Gerber air frames.

That is NOT a Buckmaster. Seriously, that is a slap in the face and should have been called something else

Buckmasters crack me up.

7cr??? Out of touch? Stupid? Being run by bean counters? Come on, Buck!

The guy seems professional. I own a mini Spitfire and I like a lot, real solid and quality compared to others with same features. I agree 7Cr is not a good idea, but for example that 500 Duke is simply a dream come true to me.

Proud Buck owner here; (105, 119, 124, many 110 and 112's) Gotta say, the Buckmaster was and is a joke. In the 80's a friend bought one with the intent of serious use. He found the saw back ineffective as a saw. When he dropped his knife, the tip broke off. Buck replaced the knife. Gee thanks, I'd rather have a serious knife, not a fantasy knife. The replacement sat on his shelf until he sold or lost it.. The grappling hook is farcical. Get out of mommy's basement, Buck designers.

Give me the Alpha Guide 663 in 420HC with the G10 scales and the Kydex sheath. 420HC is the best steel for field use. It's cheap, tough, highly corrosion resistant, and dead easy to sharpen. You can keep the expensive exotic crucible steels.

Somebody thought it would be a good idea to put a huge hole in the middle of a combat knife blade, exponentially weakening it? Looks like Buck hired one of those Chinese designers from the '80s that used to design the barrel of $2 knives you would find at the mall.

I guess those that want to own a Buck knife like was made years ago need to find a new 110 or two and put em away for the future. I should have done that with the arkansas noviculite whet stones some years back when they were readily available and inexpensive. Shame that you can't buy plain serviceable outdoor gear anymore and not have to spend a hundred bucks on a single item

That new Buckmaster should not share the same name with the original. It should be named Mallmaster. It looks like something out of a BudK catalog.

Nearly 60 years later that soft steel is almost all they use. I'm sure Mr Bos is as good as it gets, but saying you've got the best 420hc heat treat for a hard use high dollar knife is a lot like saying you're the healthiest person in the ICU. It isn't impressive.

Buck can't say they brought back the original that is falls advertisement it is a completely different model ..
