Is the knife I posted from the same generation as the Buck-184/Buck-185? I see a "V" on the blade so I assume that could be the date code which would be from the same period...
This is a Buck 639 Fieldmate. Blade is very similar to the 184 Buckmaster. I have one or two of these; I'll have to dig them out and check the date codes. I also have one that was made into a small version of the Buckmaster at the Buck Custom Shop. I'll post pictures in the next few days.
Hi Master Bill ... I remember some month ago , that same MINI 184 was on ebay from Italy ... I beleive the seller wanted a corect price not very high ...
