I've always called these regular stockmans because the Buck 301 is their medium size one, with the 303 as the small and the 307 as the large. If Buck made a jumbo it would be the size of the 317 and an extra small would be the size of a 305.
My favorite pattern is the large stockman. Carry one every day, but carry a smaller knife on the weekend. S o this was a treat. You got some nice ones there buddy. Thanks for showing this American made goodness.👍👍👍
I have the OldTimer with the serrated blade, also have the Bear Trapper knife.Great knife to carry when working with lumber as it has in the handel a brass needle on one side while the other side has a SS tweezer.
@@MrBarlow I looked at mine again and it's clearly an 89OT with no Serrated blade. Possibly a knife made from spare parts right before Schrade went out of business in 2004.
Stockmans are my favorite pattern. Carry a Case 3347 everyday. I am envious of your collection of USA stockmans. As for your Buck 301, it is a knife made by Camillus for Buck produced from 1971-1974 (as far as I am aware) based on the tang stamp. You can quickly tell who made the old 301s based on the swedge. Buck made stockmans have always had the sheepsfoot and spey reversed.
Why didnt you mention that the ranger had 3 backsprings you just commented that the buckhad 3 and how unusual it was,thats cool you have 2 of them ,now i have to check mine,just getting back into slippies after a break for a while, winter is on the way
The kabar knife could possibly be repaired to a nice condition. The brass pins are bent making the knife crooked. It shouldn’t be to hard to remove them and rebuild the knife. the blades could be sanded done further after you have tooken it apart and then refinished and polished. It’s a cool. Knife and it has a lot of potential.
idk who scratched up the blades but YT channel traplines and inlines posted a video, in it he has a little square piece of plastic he uses as an angle guide, since he does a lot of coyote skinning he needs a consistent angle. i never seen those guides before but it shouldn't be hard to make one. buck uses a 15 degree final edge angle but that plastic guide is square so you could maybe make them with other angles
Do you still own your 89OT by chance? I bought an 89OT off eBay about a week ago and noticed today while watching this video that all of the dings and patina marks match up exactly to my 89OT. Might just be a coincidence but it looks to me like I may have your 89OT! 😂
That 307 is definitely pre 86. Bet it’s a bit older (late 70s) based on the carbon springs. If I remember right they contracted the springs out because they didn’t quite know what they were doing there. Could be wrong just what I’ve read/ heard
Delrin is a product from DuPont. A very durable plastic like material. Here is their explanation from the DuPont website. Delrin® acetal homopolymer is the ideal material in parts designed to replace metal. It combines low-friction and high-wear resistance with the high strength and stiffness. Delrin® offers higher tensile strength, stiffness, creep and fatigue resistance, and significantly higher impact resistance. The combination of these excellent mechanical properties in a single material allows for thinner, lighter-weight parts and shorter molding cycles with potential cost reductions.”
Nice collection of USA made Stockman's. The Old Timer 89OT is an exceptional beauty! Thank you for showing.
The buck 301 looks like the spey was intentionally made into an awl, my grandfather use to grind his like that.
Nice collection of one of my favorite patterns. Thanks for the show and tell Mr. B.

When you see these type of pocket knives, you can just feel the history of this country. Because these knives helped tame the American frontier.
I like the sound of a slip joint knife that has good walk n' talk.
I like them all. The clip blade on the Bear and Sons has a beautiful shape and I guess hollow grind.
Fantastic and varied collection, thanks for sharing.atb paddy 👍
Nice collection of USA made Stockman's ...14 should be a Case.
I really like that Craftsman. It looks so much like old timer, I thought schrade made them.
Really nice collection! The 89OT is cool, didn’t know about that one and I liked the Ranger. Very cool knife! Thanks for sharing!
I just need a large Case stockman now!

Which large stockman do you carry? I’m curious
@@MrBarlow Case largestockman, yellow delrin, CV. Or Amber Bone , CV. One or the other.
Great video I think the Kutmaster is carbon blades my late father use to carry them when I was a kid back in the 70s.
I am in love!
Gotta love USA made Stockmans
Awesome collection , I love large stockman knives mine are mostly Case , I’m glad I found your channel I’m subscribing now 👍
Thanks for joining! Still looking for the right Case Large Stockman 🧐
@@MrBarlow Get the Case Large Stockman in the amber jig bone and the coveted CS blade steel. So good.
Wonderful stuff!
My Coast knife has a Colonial patent number on it
Just as I expected. Thank you for giving me concrete evidence the Coasts are from colonial!
With all of the brands of knives that you have in your collection... I am surprised that you do not have a "Case Stockman" among them?
I have the OldTimer with the serrated blade, also have the Bear Trapper knife.Great knife to carry when working with lumber as it has in the handel a brass needle on one side while the other side has a SS tweezer.
Very nice review 👍👍👍
What was the purpose of doubling up the liner of the cutmaster?
Man that 307 sure saw some use
I recommend you get an old cutler.
I’ve got a boker stockman thats twisted like that kbar,still got good blade snap
I am also a big fan of large stockman knives. My Schrade 89OT does not have a Serrated blade.
Hmm Really? As far as I know, 89ot have the serrated blade and the 8ot have a strait edge
@@MrBarlow I looked at mine again and it's clearly an 89OT with no Serrated blade. Possibly a knife made from spare parts right before Schrade went out of business in 2004.
the + denotes a switch from 440C to the less expensive 440A
I have a question ...Do you know the year of The CutMaster Stockmen knive you have ??

I’m still looking for a decently priced used large Case stockman! I didn’t realize my Buck 301 was that old, pretty cool. Thank you for the info!
Why didnt you mention that the ranger had 3 backsprings you just commented that the buckhad 3 and how unusual it was,thats cool you have 2 of them ,now i have to check mine,just getting back into slippies after a break for a while, winter is on the way
I got 17, aiming for 20 . All near mint condition. W/ factory edge.dad always carried them.

buck flat grind were made by camillus
I think the spey on that Buck 301 was ground down on purpose for whittling. Just my guess. Not one Case, surprising.
Great collection!

I got the green and black miccarta one of my favorites from case

Late by a year but do you think 3 springs are better than 2 on a stockman
That 307 is definitely pre 86. Bet it’s a bit older (late 70s) based on the carbon springs. If I remember right they contracted the springs out because they didn’t quite know what they were doing there. Could be wrong just what I’ve read/ heard
Love to know what delron is. I like it.

@@MrBarlow Thank you.
Ingerdol- Rand.
What’s wrong, no Case Stockman? Probably carbon steel. Kabar used a lot of carbon steel knives.
My Grandfather told me to never buy a pocket knife that didn't have brass spacers between the springs the brass will not rust to the sprngs!
Nice video, but can you rate then 1 to 5?
They look American made... Americana
