Hello everyone, I bought a pair of vintage knives at an antique shop in hawaii, I was wondering if anyone here could tell me what they are possibly worth? According to some research, They are pre - 1986. and they are 110 buck knives . From the looks of them, they have been heavily used, but I thought they were cool so I bought them... Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance !

Here are some pictures of the first knife...It is a 110, with grooved wood handles

Buck made A LOT of those and A LOT of people bought them so I don't imagine they are the least bit rare.

If they were in mint condition they might be worth more than a modern 110 to a die-hard Buck collector, but considering their condition (and the fact that the one with finger grooves appears to have been modified), the numbers that were produced, and the fact that their not really all that old, I don't think they are worth much more than thrift store prices.

If you check Ebay you can see what people are asking, and maybe getting, for similar 110's.

They might make good users, and if you got them really cheap then so much the better. If you contact Buck they might refurbish them and install new blades for free. They did that for me years ago on an old 112 I have, but I don't know if they still do that.
