I know that these were on 110s, any one seen them on a 112?

I can't remember if I've seen one.

I'm sure I don't have one,though.

My dash 112 is just a single..

Thanks, guys...
I saw a photo of a 112 with double dashes and can't remember ever seeing one or anyone ever posting about it.

Not sure if I have seen one or not but I do know I don't have one.

I’ve never seen a double dash 112. The change that caused the second dash on the 110 blade has not been done with the 112.

Thanks, Haebbie

Thanks, Haebbie

You’re welcome, Preston.

The second dash was added to the 110 in early 1992 to identify a mid year engineering change specific to that model. As Haebbie said, it does not apply to the 112 or any other model. The best explanation I've seen of this change was given by David Martin in post #13 of the thread listed below.

Never say never. That's what's fun about collecting Buck knives. Finding the one that doesn't exist.

 

[kossetx]

never mind

Here is the merchant's photo of the double dash 112. It should be on it's way to me shortly.

Well darn, much to my disappointment, it looks like that is not a double dash, but, a four dot blade. Ha, that's what I get for being to anxious.

I missed that myself. good catch there.

 

[pjsjr]

good catch there.

Actually it was gedlicks that caught it. He zoomed in on it and saw that it was a four dot and messaged me. Thanks, James.
I've battled over anxious acts most of my life...'we get to soon old and to late smart'.

Hey Preston, we've all been there. On the bright side, the bolsters have lots of dashes to enjoy. Beautiful knife, regardless.

Looks like Preston has been on a Yellowhorse Kick (I saw his 119 in another thread) and I've got one coming this week.
Spoiler alert for the next SPS....

Right, Tom, I could say that I was blinded by the light.

Spoiler alert for the next SPS....

Looking forward to it, as always, you have great taste.
