What an exceptional documentary. This resonates on a significantly more human level than I was expecting. I wasn't expecting to feel moved over a video about knives. Thank you for sharing their story and message!

Thanks to CJ Buck and people like him, American manufacturing is still at the top of its game. Thanks for the commitment.

I recently purchased a custom 112 Ranger with blue wood handle & brass bolsters. It’s being engraved with Vernon on the blade and VLB on a bolster. Vernon is my father and he starts chemotherapy next Monday. It will probably be the last best gift I can give him. A Buck knife, the Buck brand, it’s much more than a knife. It’s my way of saying I love him when words fall short.

Wow you could really feel how much it meant to him reading these messages. And damn right you should be proud of it. The110 is a iconic, reliable & beautiful knife

I have my grandfather's 110. About 10 other versions of the design and my 110 sport goes to work with me every day. I can't say enough about Buck. What I can say is THANK YOU.

Buck knives are one of the best hunting knives ever made. From the steel to the design the hunting community that I belong to love buck knives. You don’t need a 300 dollar knife for it to perform while hunting and processing your game. The buck 110, 102, etc, etc, etc will all get the job done. Great job buck knives.

I am 68 and still have my wood and gold buck folder from my childhood, next to my grandads case it is my most cherished blade. The original leather holster still carry’s it proudly. Thanks

I absolutely love buck knives. I own 3 110’s. 1 of them is one I bought for myself, 1 was given to me by the dad of one of my friends as thanks for being a good friend to his daughter and he used it for its intended purpose as a hunting knife so it has a unique patina to it, and another one was given to me after my grandfather passed and he worked in the forest service as a hot shot and that knife was the one he carried with him so it’s really special to me and has it’s own very unique look. Needless to say the buck 110 is one of my favorite knives of all time.

Quality is something that’ll last a lifetime growing up with my first knife to me by my grandfather was a buck 110. I still have that knife today. I still use it occasionally and since then I’ve bought a lot of buck knives, and still won most of them. Today is trusted and true and through.

I'll tell you what, Buck knives is a great company with good products. The customer service is out of this world awesome! I have a 110 my Gander (Grandfather) gave to me when I was a boy. Old as that knife was, Buck knives put a new blade on it and polished it up. It looked like it did when he gave it to me. They even left the engravings he made on the knife intact. I can never thank Buck enough for giving me back a little of my Gander, and the memories of those legendary outdoor trips I had with him.

I own many Buck knives that I’ve had in my collection for over 35 years, and they are still going strong. They are a truly an iconic brand.

I saw a man whip a Buck 110 out at the blink of an eye when I was about 5 or 6 years old. I was obsessed. I had a few small pocket knives, but this one was special. I wanted one bad! Coming from a fairly poor family, we didn’t have the money to get me one. Fast forward to the Christmas of 1984 (11 years old) my mother got me one. I was SO happy. I carried it everywhere. On maybe day 6 or 7, I was wearing sweatpants, so I of course was not wearing a belt. Lost my precious knife, and was SICK! I never did get another Buck 110 until about 6 months ago, and now have a small collection of them. I have been making custom knives on the side for several years now, and have recently been customizing some 110’s. I feel like every man should have one. A true classic! 👌🔪

This was awesome documentary right there!!! ❤❤❤ Thank you Blade HQ and Buck !!!

What a great message. The first knife I ever bought for myself over 45 years ago was the Buck 112. At 66 years old and about 100 knives in my collection I still have my original Buck, The other knives come and go, but the Buck will always stay collection.

This was simply an incredible documentary. The quality of this is superb and I enjoyed hearing the story told from CJ himself. Buck knives are quality and I carry a 112 fairly often that I adore. It’s reassuring to hear just how important they still view customers all these years later.

Quality=Definitely the knife that is still working like a charm after 50 years

Received my Buck 110 from my brother at Christmas in 1978. Still have it today Processed many an animal and served me well All these years my son will receive it when I no longer need it.

Quality is simple. It is when one comes back to the same product over and over again, since it just works. No bells and whistles needed. Just works. :)

Absolutely great video guys! I love knives of all shapes and sizes and from all kinds of manufacturers, but Buck remains a stalwart. Great heritage, great products, and a great story to boot. My dad bought me my first 110 when I was nine and 35 years later it still delivers.

Dear Charles Brian Buck, is always a pleasure to view documentaries about your Company. We as customers we feel tight to the legacy of your family. We feel that indeed what you put into your knives is the pleasure to satisfy the needs of the end user. Personally I have two 110 one 112 and one of your superstars the 547 rosewood which I religiously keep safe and although is made for tough work I respect it to the point that I never use it just to preserve it pristine. As your warranty is forever so is our loyalty. Best Regards, Maurizio Grandi Johannesburg South Africa

I got to meet C.J Buck at the Cabela's store grand opening in Billings Montana. I showed him my Buck pocket knife and he signed the blade for me. It was too good to lose so I bought another one for my daily use. I have a long history with Buck knives. I own several and I enjoy them all My 102 woodsman helped me through some hard times as a young Man. Kind of a survival situation. I Wish Buck knives the Best and Best Wishes from Montana! M.H.

Lovely documentary. Thank you Hoyt Buck for giving your fellow humans an indispensable classic. Having used all sorts of knives, I feel nothing comes close to an 110. Yes, that's quality

I received a 110 folding Buck knife for my 9th birthday. I would wear it on my belt everywhere but school. Growing up in Norco Ca. (Horse town USA) approximately 2 hours north/east of San Diego. Growing up on a small ranch my knife came in handy. From cutting hay wire to leather bridles for my Appaloosa to make sure it fit properly I depended on that knife for a number of things. I still have my knife and take it out to look at every once in a while. Sure does bring back memories.

I'm a proud owner of 2 Buck 110 (standard model from the 90’s and the anniversary model). It's not only about having a quality sharp knife at hand, but also a piece of America heritage.

Because it is much more than a knife, a companion, a witness of our past, a keeper of our memory and of those before us, something we cherish, that we can count on. Something in our heart and soul that makes us more confident and stronger to fight every day challenges.

I've had a 110 for over 40yrs now. Got it as a High School Graduation present and brought it to basic training. Used it in Grenada and Panama. Dressed many whitetail and rabbits along the way and it's still as tight as the day I got it. Not as Gucci as some but it is a good, solid knife that won't fail you. Man should be proud of the knife his company produces.

A Buck was the first knife I ever had as a kid. I’ve always known Buck to produce a quality product, but I admit to sampling other brands over the years. But after watching this video and now being older, I understand the importance of the things CJ said. And because of that, I will be a loyal Buck customer from now on.

I had them honor the lifetime warranty replacing a spring on a knife my father owned and used during his boy scout days then I've used it most of my adult life to include a deployment overseas. The 110 is an icon and this company stands behind their product.

Got my Buck 110 when I started hunting 40 years ago ! Still a constant companion when I go in woods . Has some wear and tear from being used but still locks up tight and razor sharp when I do my part ! It’s an old friend at this point would feel lost with out it.

wonderful documentary, touched my soul. Yes Buck knives, when held them in your hand, you feel history, its the quintessential knife...

I received my 110 as a 15th birthday present, it is on my belt right now 42 years later. It has never failed me and is still in perfect condition. I have gifted this model to family and friends over 15 times and hope to pass mine on to my grandson someday.

My first knife was a Buck 701 Bronco, which I got from my great uncle back in the 80s. I still have it, and many, many other Buck knives.

Best pocket knife ever made. Only knife my Dad ever carried, I still have his 110 and his 112 since he passed away.

As a kiwi I got a 112.and I love the family passion for the knives and the customers. It goes to show why they are still around today. The 110 is an iconic knife even all the way down here.

You know I have never purchased a Buck knife. This really made me want to buy one and get my children engraved ones. Great video and you guys should do this with many other companies.

Please make more of these, wonderful to watch

What a great video, very moving. Love the history of the business and the family. Awesome to hear CJ read the comments from the customer’s. I have been on both sides of the comments to the company. Both good and bad but one thing about Buck, they stand behind their products and they make it right. I plan on still buying more and more of their classic knives. Thanks for the video, it was awesome. And thanks again to the Buck family for making such a wonderful product.

Need that 112 exclusive! Great documentary!

Loved it. I also remember growing up as a kid seeing family members carry these all the time. They will always keep a place in my heart. I just got pro versions of 105 and 119 for some more modern materials.

I own several buck knives and I always will. I've always loved their knives. As an American, Buck knives are just a staple for me. My grandpa used them, my dad still uses them, my brothers use them, I use them, and my kids will eventually use them. Can you get an adequate knife made cheaper elsewhere? Sure, but tradition is important. I'll spend a little more to get a knife made by Buck because I trust them.

I am not a Buck owner or user, but this is refreshing to see the history and the transparency from Mr. Buck.

The 110 was my 1st knife purchase, as a young teen in the 70s. I liked it so much, I had my initials engraved on the bolster (PHM). Sadly, I lost it one day, running a foot race against my best buddy, through the east Texas pines. I own several 110s, and some other Buck knives as well. I might not be able to resist an auto version in Magnacut, and a pocket clip 110 would be even better. Congrats on getting out of CA. I feel sorry for those struggling to operate a business there.

Great interview. I have a 100, 119 and 692 Vanguard. I have a lot of more expensive knives but the Bucks can still be counted on 50 years after I got my first Buck.

That is a great little documentary, thank you!

Buck knife is one of the best. When I was a kid I could not wait to get one. Of course as a kid my parents got me a knock off because I would probably lose it. I bought one for my self when I was 16. Still have it still use it 34 years later. As far as the quality or latest greatest things if you can't use it like it was meant to its not worth anything

I loved this video. I was just at Buck HQ earlier this year and bought a 110 Auto to go with my grandfather's 112 with mastodon ivory handle scales. In the documentary, you can see the founders standing with a tusk. There is a beautiful set in the company museum. They bought a gold mine in Alaska, and the previous owner had been finding them by the ton and stacking them like cord wood in a separate area. If you are ever in Post Falls, ID stop in. The museum is awesome, you can watch the production floor from there. Also, they have a store where you can get your buck fresh off the line. I got a smokin deal on my 110 auto as a factory 2nd. I can't tell why it was a second. It's beautiful.

Loyal Buck owner for years . Thousands of dollars very well spent over my lifetime.

Fond memories of the company in El Cajon. A great company formed by a patriotic family of believers who defined customer service long before most others.

Carry my buck everyday since ten years old 34 years now thank you

I own only two Magnacut knives and both are Bucks, a 501 Larrin and a 119. I also have have an OG 110 and a custom 110 in S30V w/drop point blade that tends to be my EDC. I keep 110 LTs in my bug-out bags. Whenever Buck makes a knife in Magnacut now, I just kind of buy it. I hope they do another run of 110 Magnacut knives, that's one I really want. I trust Buck with Magnacut as they went directly to the creator of Magnacut, Mr. Larrin himself to learn how to properly work with it and heat treat it. Growing up in rural coastal NC, everyone carried a Buck 110 on their belt. Even saw them in the Army overseas in the 90s and 00s during the wars.

I love Buck knives!! Let's go... and Thank you, BHQ.

Got to meet CJ at Blade this year. Seems like a great guy. I’ve bought many Bucks over my lifetime .. including customs. I have never been disappointed

Quality stands the test of time I believe ❤

Thank you for this exceptional video.

I love your company's story Sir, such an inspiration. God bless you all.

Wow. What a fantastic video. Well done video team.

Bought my first Buck, a 112 39 years ago. I still use it today.

Awesome production! This video is going to be a priceless piece of knife history for generations! Well done!

The Buck 110 did for the Buck company, what the Maine Hunting Shoe did for LL Bean. In both cases, the whole company became rich and famous from just ONE of their products. Even today, if you mention a "Buck knife" or "Bean boots", people know exactly which product you're talking about.

Thank you for the 110 112 I have both of them

great video! the production and story was high quality. i carry a buck toothpick and love to be a part of this 100+ year history.

EXCELLENT VIDEO! I'M NEW TO THE KNIFE HOBBY ALTHOUGH I'M 53 YO; I OWN, OBVIOUSLY, A BUCK 110 CLASSIC, AN 870 BONES AND A SPITFIRE TEAM ELK EDITION, ALSO HAVE THE CARD THAT STATES CHUCK BUCK MISSION IN MY DESK, GOD BLESS THEM ALL AT BUCK KNIVES, MY LOYALTY AND LOVE FOR YOU ALL, GREETINGS FROM MEXICO CITY

I do love me some Buck knives. Ive got my grand daddys 110 from late 60s or very early 70s, and ive got my own Ranger skinner fixed blade. Both have beautiful ebony handles. I carry the Ranger every day.

I've owned a few buck knives. They are great. Not my personal need being met but that's not what's about. Honest work and commitment. It's so hard to find. I must pay my respects when due as my grandfather's used these every day. I still have his, it could definitely use a good restoration.

I have a 4 dot buck 110 and still going strong

Quality is being well built with care and consideration of how it will be used. To be made with the best materials possible. 🔪🎸

I'll forever be a fan of Buck knives. Awesome video guys! I'd love to see this kind of video about Case too.

Nice job guys keep it up

I'm waiting for a warranty repair.sent 1 /10/24.told it would take 3monts.that sounds like a forever to get back warranty 😢 been a customer in San Diego 1976.highway 76.whats up.🤔

Quality is this video and it’s content.

I've been wanting a 112 with wood, thumb stud, and a clip forever! It's finally a thing!

The slim series needs 4 position pocket clip.

If on an overnight hunting or camping trip where you can't run home and get something so you have to depend on what you packed, I take my 110.

Such a great watch. Thank you

I like Buck knives. I have 18 or 19 of them. some with D2, some with S30V, some with CPM-154, and quite a few with their crap steel 420HC. What is bad, is their quality control. I would say department, but I don't think they even have one. If you order a Buck from their own stock, better ask for even edge grinds. That is a tip for anyone ordering a knife directly from them....

❤❤lov buck am geting more 🙏🙏

Quality is a knife that can stand the tests of time

About to order my 1st 110

Buck knives are the best knives I have a buck 11p audio and I love it

BHQ could have showed the latest Buck fixed blades. I want to pick up a Ranger and alpha Hunter. As a knife nerd I belive materials, design, and fit and finish sell very well. The ranger skinner would nake a fantastic folder design. If they collaborated with Lynch and had a lynch pocket clip, it would be a value added.

Y’all should do moore maker knives next

Buck 4 eva!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quality, pedigree, performance are always at the forefront of any purchase from an iconic knife maker, but my own, personal NEW requirement for knives is the Fidgety factor. IMHO, most new blades should offer at LEAST THREE opening methods: Whether it be thumb studs, flipper tabs or hole cut outs. If I’m $pending a king’s ransom on a blade these days, I WANT OPTIONS! ☮️ 🎄

I was very sad 😢.I got myself a buck 112 .When the blade is closed, the tip sticks up a tiny bit and can cut your finger, not good quality control, I thought ok I will try again and order another one ,but this time a got a empty box 😢.don't think I am meant to have a decent buck knife 😢😢

thank u

Can we get the 112 auto with the micarta inlays back please???

I wish I could EDC my 102 Pro in the SFBA, California year round.

I think as our country seems to be imploding, people are looking back at our heritage and the iconic classics in tools like knives and firearms. Sturdy materials, made in America, true to the time tested look and feel, and made by a company that has principles that align with this nations heritage. That's quality.

' What is quality' it is the summation of all attributes; one is to be able to pass from one generation to another, two being no imperfection when coming out of the box, so no need to return it to the reseller,three, a great customer service that one can depend on, if need to discuss the knife and its attributes, 4 Made in America of course.

Quality is not having to worry about it.

Outstanding, an American icon. Still have my 119 special I recieved as a gift in 1977, for graduation, went bear hunting with it later that year. Will soon add the 112 to my collection. The quality fit and finish is always there. I have never been diappointed. Hope you keep making them here in the United States. I would rather pay a few dollars more than have the come from overseas.

I love and collect Buck Auto 110, 112, 8xx small and large ones. I like to see the Buck Autos to come up with Mag blades. How about that. Thanks. BTW, if a knife is out of stock in the Buck app, it is not possible to reserve or ask for a notification with my email so that it becomes available again. How about that for improvement. The reseller s like Blade H Q have that option, by the way. Thanks for producing great American made knives.🎉

My late great uncle carried a buck 110

Well done 👐

Great video!

I like buck knives.

What was the reasons for relocating the business from San Diego to North Idaho? Awesome American company 😁👍

10:45 Quality is 99 positive and 0 negative comments.

buck needs to make American made trappers canoes Barlow's etc... agian.

I own many Buck knives.
