110 slim select question

[RAGS]

Does Buck make the slim select series with the standard 110 clip blade? If so, where have you seen them? Thanks.

not that I've ever seen

Thanks for the replies guys! OK I guess they dont make that configuration, at least not yet. Maybe in the future. The regular 110LT will do for now.

Not exactly, there is a version with a nail nick and no thumb stud, but the blade seems to be the same profile as the more typical 110 Slim. Not to mention that it's for sale in Germany, to comply with their laws. Probably not very common on our side of the world.

I did find this pic web surfing which shows what Bastler mentioned. For some reason I think I heard Canada had the version without the thumbstud and with the nail nick too. EDIT: This picture came from a Canadian reseller website.

Canada doesn't allow any kind of assisted opening knife including thumb studs. There's many 'Canadian' versions of folding Bucks.

That interpretation has changed. There are thumbstuds and assisted openers available now.

edit: still can't be automatics that open via a button though and some ball bearing pivots seem to be no-go, even though others are. ?? Weird.

I would be interested in a 112 Slim without a stud, especially with the standard 112 blade or a drop point. I like my knives plain and I'm a fan of Buck's 420hc.

Our national "more than just tires" store usually has some of those in stock so I'll have a look next time I set foot there.

None in stock at my local store but I'll check around.
