110 Hunter 1967 - 1972 version & variant?

SpydieFanSoCal · Jul 2, 2015

What is the version & variant of this 110?

Please let me know what other photos are required to identify the version & variant.

Thank you for your help! This knife was originally purchased by my father.

I also have a Ranger 112 from the same era. Do the 112s have versions and variants, too?

Perhaps a 3/9?

That looks like a Version 4, Variation 1. It has a separate, not integral, brass spacer/springholder, a brass rocker rivet and an inverted two-line stamp. Joe Houser gives an approximate date of 1970-1972

Early 70's looks correct. The sheath looks to be in great shape and has the scalloped top but the blade has been sharpened badly down. How is that possible? Must have been pocket carried it. DM

Yes, post photos of the Ranger as they have versions too. DM

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated.

Yes, the knife was pocket carried. The sheath is like new.

This is a Version 4, Variation 1 Buck 110

That is a nice looking knife and it has 440C steel. Nobody did 440C better than Buck. In their capable hands it is a top notch steel.
