110 60th Anniversary Special Edition

[Happy Hippo]

Did you people see the new offering - 0110BRS60th. 60th Anniversary, Magnacut, 110 with a medallion. Sheath has brown stitching. 2000 made. Knifecenter and Palmetto State Armory already has them for order ($200). I think Buck will drop it on Thursday. My opinion? I don't really collect 110s but you can get a Magnacut (without medallion or special sheath) from Buck custom shop for $150. 2000 is not that limited. Is the sheath, in fact, special? I guess if I collected 110s, I'd have to get it. Because I know I'd get it if it were a 112.

If it is the same sheath pictured front and back, the back looks like black stitching, at least to my old eyes. Maybe its two-tone thread.

seems pricey to me. I already have a 110 magnacut, so I'm passing.

Yes, I agree. So maybe it won't come with brown stitching. I'm not getting it anyway but I thought the brown stitching was cool.

Two thoughts,
the brown stitching adds a lot to the plain jane sheath and I hope Buck offers some 60th annys with 420HC at a reasonable price.

I missed out on the 50th anniversary knives but managed to get the 50th anniversary 112’s. I agree with you i collect the 112’s now more than the 110’s.
Honestly i just don’t care that much about the special steels. 420HC is just fine by me.

Wow seems i had to take a long break to get my picture posting to work again. Thank you very very very much Blade Forum!
Picture above was just a test. I really need more pictures of 110’s lol

For a collector, I suppose this is a must-have, but I'll pass.

I dig on the brown thread...this might shove me towards one, if they hang for awhile......

The problem is, if you look the other side of the sheath (from the picture at Knifecenter), the threads are black. So, I don't know what is going on here.

yeah saw y'all talked about that. I'm hoping it's the brown thread. guess we'll find out eventually. whether back is a stock pic and front pic is it or vice versa. minor difference that shouldn't matter in anyway, just like the brown stitching looks.

Well, I think Buck is dropping this tomorrow. So maybe the sheath controversy will resolve them.

I'm not a serious Buck collector, so my FOMO associated with these constant special drops has essentially evaporated. I have the Magnacut 110 from the first secret release they did, and don't carry it, so odds that this knife would be carried are similarly low, so I'm a pass on this one.

Maybe there should be a "sheath of the month".

.....Because I really don't find the knife all that exciting.....

 

[RoyalHolic]

Does it come with that fancy metal tin????? And cardboard fluff!!

Looks fine but that much extra just for a anniversary shield seems steep.

For the anniversary they should of brought out something exotic.

Buck released this knife today.

$200 does not make me want to rush out to get one. Only 791 left.

Yeah, on Instagram they said they were going to release it today. They also said they were giving one away but I was too lazy to jump through the hoops which were required to be eligible.

 

[Midnight Rider]

Yeah the price is too steep, for what is shown. That medallion, plus a different color thread on the sheath (maybe) don't add up to $50 more IMHO. Congrats to anyone who wants one and gets it.

I don't know what they're smoking but I'm sure they'll sell. It's kind of disappointing to me. I got the 50th anniversary with no emblem because at the time they had multiple versions it was $40. Also had ebony wood which means that with inflation and the material upgrade to magnacut the 60th anniversary cost $160 more? I'm a hard pass at that price

 

[dsutton24]

Yeah... I am a 110 collector, but I can see myself jumping on this thing for $200. Magnacut is cool stuff, but I've got a few now and I gotta say I'm over it.
