I have used Buck knives, and while I am not so dismissive of Buck as a brand, I agree that there are some much better knives out there for bushcraft use. Some of the Bucks I use are in daily use, have no broken tips, hold a great edge ( and with my set up of diamond stones are simple, if time consuming to sharpen) and are comfortable and practical for the jobs I put them to.
I have even done some rock sculpture with a Buck knife and resharpened it to a razor edge afterwards....
OK some are ugly but most brands have their lemons in there somewhere...I would be far from eager to diss the whole range!
I dont see BCUK as a prime Buck market though...
