Offered here is a rarely seen Buck 117 folding knife in outstanding vintage condition. It belonged to a retired Buck Knives Company employee. Its blade measures 3 1/2 inches, made of carbon steel with a sharp working edge. Its handle measures 4 3/8 inches, has steel front bolster and pins, steel liners and dark hardwood scales. There is a hole where the bail used to be. All the dimensions correspond to Bernard Levine’s notes in his book.
