THAT IS THE FIRST NIB IVE SEEN!!!!!!!!!!! And I have yet to see a 112 4 rivit nib...Has anyone else come across a nib??? Rare for SURE!
 
Another member/collector bought one at the 20yr.Reunion that was in very good shape,
just not NIB.That was the first 4 pin 110 I'd seen and I had been looking on sleez-bay
for sometime.So, their rare to find in any condition as not many were produced. I've
heard of guys who seem to just fall into great deals.I hope your buying lottery tickets and when you hit remember we're related.DM
 
Got it yesterday.
The box, sheath was rather musty and one of the scales is loose from the from on the bottom. Not perfect but still a good catch.

My Version/Variation collection is getting better.
 
Well, a fella can get lucky a third time. Picked up a mint/unused CS Dorado for $34 plus shipping. I just happened to pop in the Bay and it had about an hour left so I decided to lowball bid $40 and won. I couldn't believe it. No box or sheath but this puppy in going right in the collection to be admired only.

Its a 2006 Custom Shop Alpha Dorado with a mirror finished 154cm blade and jigged buffalo scale. In fact, even the surface of the frame is mirror finished. It is also tight as a drum.

Here is the listing description:
Up for auction is a Buck folding Knife. This knife is not new, and I don't know much about it. The blade is 154cm steel and I believe it has a Sheep horn handle.

In the listing line was "Buck Folding Knife - Sheep horn"

And here is one of the pictures:

I don't believe this seller had any idea what he/she had in this knife.
I'm going try not to feel bad about getting this for so little:o
 
Dang,thats just like the Club knife for that year,only w/o the 14kt. gold ribbon.
Gordon,I'm telling you to buy a lottery ticket.DM
 
David,

I went to the BCCI website and looked at the 2006 catalog and price list and its not listed there. As you say I found the club knife for 2006 with the ribbon. The club knife has a 420hc mirror blade I believe while this one is mirror 154cm with the custom stamp.

I'd be real interested if anyone else has one like mine. Or even seen one for that matter?
Any thoughts anyone?
