So the 1982 F/G 110, unradiused frame, had finger grooves that were done by hand, and was the only year F/G were done by hand, Right??:foot:Quote:

1983 forward on the 110s. The radiused thumb depression frames are molded.
As I mentioned in another post I got a Hoyt H. Buck Founders Edition 112 today at Walmart.

I like the stand they included in that tin. Sheath is cool too.
And I like the stripey wood laminate.
...my first buff horn handle...Thank you Elana...

Yep, it came from our special princess! Take another look Trax.
Well Jeff...
I went to the BPS in Grapevine (near DFW airport). Wanted to see if they had any of the 2007 lineup yet.
Nope.
But, they had Rosie Dorado. Got one. VERY impressed.
Those 110s with the four scale rivets + the rocker rivet were only produced in 1979. You don't see those everyday. Nice score!

I had a unique 110 arrive today. It's a 2 dot blade, and the newer of the 2 styles of frames used in the 2 dot time frame. Buck used up their inlays that were already drilled for 2 pin frames, drilled 2 more pin holes, and used the inlays on the newer frames with 3 pin holes...resulting in 110s with 4 pins in the inlays, in addition to the rocker pin.
These unradiused frames with 2 dot blades have become my favorites from all the 110s. Full frame with Ebony inlays and a 440C blade.

Cool knife Goose.Me and Rosie Dorado are getting along great.
I cut some orange peelings on 2 real small oranges with her today.
I love the way she layes up next to the body on the belt.
