Is that the first lanyard hole on a 101? Sharp looking knife.

Had to get at least one:

Discontinued model. Only produced now for special/limited runs

New handle material for the 101 (and Buck, first used this year ?)

I almost always like the medallion in the handle. Looks classy !

Lanyard hole improvement. First time on a 101, going by memory. Memory is faulty : )
 
there's a lot to like on it, but I never carry my 101s and stopped collecting all the versions while back. gonna pass, but like a lot about it. drop point, new scale material, 154cm is a good overall user steel with Buck heat treatment and looks good.....just don't need it.....
 
I really wanted to pull the trigger on a couple! But just can't justify the high price. Especially for the bland handle. But Love the drop point fixed blade.
 
Hmmm. I like it a lot. Price is decent for what you're getting.

I'm gonna hem and haw. If it hasn't sold out by tomorrow, I'll flip a coin.

If it's gone, it's gone. I can't imagine a 110 doing anything a 117 won't do, so I'm not missing out.

Same, I’m very glad this wasn’t the one thing that would have opened my wallet: a 112 in MC!
 
Not a bad offering by any means. Congrats to those who've ordered one.

However, I sure would like to see Buck put on their big boy pants and put out a 124-3V/5160/MAGNA or 900 series blade. Perhaps not as a BOTM as any such knife would be well outside the $150-200.00 price tag of most monthly releases. If I recall correctly, the last custom 124 offered was in March of 21, the last Houser web blast?
