Description

The buck painted pony gold lip pearl and bloody Jasper cadet stockman knife represents a premium collaboration between Buck Knives and renowned custom artist Michael Prater of Painted Pony Designs. Built on the classic Buck 303 Cadet Stockman platform, this upscale custom is limited to just 250 serialized pieces, with this specific knife marked #85 of 250. It features dramatic Gold Lip Pearl and Bloody Jasper handles framed by engraved nickel silver bolsters and spacers, creating a vivid presentation of color, depth, and reflective brilliance.

Each blade is crafted from Buck’s BOS-heat-treated 420HC stainless steel, offering excellent corrosion resistance, durability, and a finely sharpened edge. The traditional trio of clip, spey, and sheepsfoot blades are finished in a stunning mirror polish, equipped with deep hollow grinds, and detailed with full-length custom file work along the spines. The primary blade is engraved with Prater’s signature and the serialization mark, reinforcing the authenticity of this limited production run.

The handle construction is equally elaborate. Custom file work continues across the backsprings, liners, and dual spacers, giving the knife a cohesive high-end custom aesthetic. The Gold Lip Pearl radiates iridescent warmth, while the Bloody Jasper brings contrasting deep red tones, creating a striking gemstone-like combination that elevates the Cadet into a functional art piece.

Presented new in box with a Certificate of Authenticity, a signed Prater card, and a black leather slip pouch, the buck painted pony gold lip pearl cadet stockman knife is a centerpiece-level collectible ideal for Painted Pony enthusiasts and Buck Legacy collectors alike.
