He has lectured on US Military knives at Buck Knives Collector's Club events and written articles in the worlds largest Survival Magazine "Survival Quarterly".

Originally researched, developed, and then issued to serve the U.S. Navy SEALs of Team Three (Then SEAL Team Six), the BuckMaster became and is a 1980's American icon of survival edged knives.
