Buck 110 EDC?

[Robert Ptacek]

Who carries their 110 regularly when they are out and about not just in the woods?

 

[kossetx]

every day, all day, 110 auto.

 

[eveled]

Everyday for the last 35 plus years. It’s the least armed I am willing to go. But I always considered it a striking weapon. With a useful blade. That brass pommel can be devastating.

On my belt. “Outside his pants for all the honest world to see”

From 1974ish till mid 90’s it was my only EDC. For work reasons went in pocket carry so Spyderco took over that chore.
Belt carry is now mostly 112fg or auto and i do like the 112 slime on occasion.
Only carry the 110 when i’m feeling nostalgic and that’s my ••110••FG i got off ebay from Alaska in a 5 Buck knife deal.

I've had a 110 (or Old Timer 6OT or 7OT) on my belt pretty much every day for the last 50 years.

These 5 with my 110 i got at Wally World

I used to carry my 110 30 plus years ago because it really was my only knife.Nostalgia wants me to again but in Michigan legal limit is 3 inches.It was back then but everybody carried them and the political climate is different today or am I overthinking?

 

[eveled]

If that’s the limit. Carry a 112. No point asking for trouble.

 

[JD Bear]

I agree with you eveled. I love the 110, but I've been carrying a 112 more recently and don't find myself missing the 110 all that much....

 

[jbmonkey]

I carry one on my belt everyday pretty much. it's a very useful knife. not too big, not too small.

 

[jacksterp]

Might consider a 110 Slim Select as an option. They're terrific and light - with a pocket clip.

 

[bucksway]

A 112 Slim will be in my pocket today..But I'm going to try a 110 LT or Slim and really give it a chance..

 

[Robert Ptacek]

Good advice Guys.Thanks.

For the past 8 months or so I've been carrying the "Shield" from SKB. Blue handle 110LT with cpm154 drop point. Absolutely fantastic EDC!!

View attachment 1181707 My EDC Buck 110 format knife is a skinnied up Titanium Model 560 to which I have added a pocket clip, a thumb stud, and a premium blade (S-110-V). The new thickness is 3/8”. It’s the bottom knife.

I carry a 110 most days. I carry mine in the tool pocket on the outer thigh of my carpenters jeans. It works great and I’ve yet to have any problems with it sliding out.

I will say this, I was never a huge 112 fan but I'm thinking the 112 guys are onto something. I've been carrying the 112 lt father's day build out that @bucklife301 sent me and I love it.

As of Jan. 2019 MI law does not restrict open carry knife length unless local statute (Detroit, Lansing) prohibits. Unless intent is to do bodily harm to another.
Conceled carry is where it can get tricky. But again intent comes into play, as in hunting season/ wore under a coat.

I have a friend that is MI state police and he says that "if your gonna get hassled by the police for a Buck 110, your already in trouble for something else".

I encourage you to check into it for yourself as the laws have changed......

Overthinking, unless you belong to a class of people that are prone to being stopped by cops. Buck 110 not being allowed doesn't sound like the part of MI I visit. Now if ya like to drink and brawl...

 

[BuckShack]

Yeah, those stupid laws are just for tacking on extra time to your sentence. At that point, does it really matter?

I carry a 110 in nylon sheath at 8 o'clock and 501 at 2.
