I think the 110 is a great knife,a real classic,it's one big chunk of a knife.Every time I visit the states I cannot stop myself going into Walmart and picking up another one,always seem to be $29.97,I bring them back to the UK and gift them to some friend or other,here's the kicker though,in the online knife stores in the UK they cost in the region of $100 ! Next time I'm over I am going to search out a vintage 110 or two,no collection is complete without at least a couple of examples.

Thanks guys! I've been looking for it with this steel for a long time, but only a lucky chance brought him to me. Tom, I'm not really in the stream, I see that many of the photos are missing, and not only in this forum. What happened? Neale, Good luck to you! On ebay old Buck exist are in excellent condition, just need to regularly track ![smile smile](/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif)

Tom, I'm not really in the stream, I see that many of the photos are missing, and not only in this forum. What happened? Snake, Photobucket, a "free" third-party image hosting website that many folks used to post their photos on forums, decided to change their business model and charge $399 per year to host photos. If you didn't pay, all of your photos were replaced with this... Needless to say, most folks didn't pay the fee and thousands of old photos vanished.

Thank you Tom! Now it is understandable, now need all translate to other photohostings, old photos are really a pity.
By the way, this is really an oak, but it is Dymondwood, that all the same it is better than just an oak in some sense - there is no decay and drying out.

I got my first Buck 110 when I was in 6th grade. I used to take it to school with me every day. Times have changed!
Anyhow, I have acquired some Buck 110 & 112 AUTOMATICS.
Here are some examples:
On top is a FACTORY 110 AUTOMATIC. It is new for this year. In the middle is a 110 automatic CONVERSION with file work. On the bottom is a 112 AUTOMATIC with file work.
All 3 open with AUTHORITY and all 3 are double action meaning you can push the button or open MANUALLY.

Thanks Tom.
The 112s are really nice. Not too big to carry.
