440 Question

Seems like a good place to mention my childhood dream. A Buck 110 with fullers. The look would be so cool! Much nicer than a useless nail nick.

Buck did a run of these in the Fall of 2017 for Smoky Mountain. Bone handle and nickel silver inlay. Not really a fuller so much as a long nic. Still, it has a bit of the same visual effect. I think it was a run of about 300 and did not sell too well since they were still trying to sell them in 2018. I do not understand why Buck persists in doing the script inlay upside down.

I remember those. I like the look of the long nick a lot. But it’s only on one side. The script Buck looks silly even right side up. IMHO.

It is appropriate when the knife is displayed close, which is usually laying on the spine. But i dont like it that direction, wouldnt mind it flipped over.
 
Does it have a story I wonder? Like is it somebody important’s handwriting? Or is it just a font someone got out of a book?
