BHQ has a 110 Auto OD green Micarta exclusive up right now. It's Magnacut. For Black Friday, they offer a free junk knife.

A desert warrior knife with a confetti handle?

No, it's a Dessert Warrior. They have a whole slew of sprinkles handles from different manufacturers. I have maybe 8 of them. Wouldn't mind seeing a Buck one as a lark.

I guess sprinkles are more scary than confetti.

Oh...tempting! I had one of these and sold it off. Matter of fact, I've had quite a few 110 autos and always end up selling them off. I love the auto elite, but not a fan of the G10 scales. I like the micarta, but hate the brass! Tough call!
Thanks for the heads up!

It states that the G10 version also has the magnacut blade!

I think all the auto elites are Magnacut now. My recent 112 is.

The concept of these Dessert Warrior handles has been very popular for BHQ. There are probably at least 10 companies that did one for them.

Sprinkles are the bait...

I missed out on the 112 Micarta Auto that BHQ offered, so I wanted to make sure I didn't miss out on this.

Thanks for the heads up on this 110 auto, I am in for the pair.

I had mostly forgotten that months ago I placed myself on the BHQ “notifying me” list for essentially this same out of stock knife (I believe it had a S30V blade). No word from BHQ but who needs them when Happy Hippo is on the job.

The sprinkle motif on the Civivi Desert Warriors is not my usual style but it could be fun and the price is right.

Nice that they offer micarta. The heavy brass bolsters keep me away. Make a lightweight Micarta model and I might bite. I only own 2 buck,it’s the vintage sharpener in the leather holster. Very nice quality for sure, it remains unused and in my display. Also the froe, and I use it plenty.

The desert warrior is very popular, but not my cup of tea. I have the BHQ coin.

Yup, it starts usually with one. I think the first Buck knife I bought was a 110. I bought a finger-grooved 110 to gift to my neighbor to thank him for driving me to the hospital. He was so excited to get it, he dropped it on the driveway and put some big dents on the bolster. When I saw it, I thought it was cool and bought one for myself. That was about 5 years ago. Now, I have more than I care to admit.
