Hi all.

I am wondering what everyone thinks of the 110 hunter by buck. Is it worth the $42? If I get one I want to get one of the 50th anniversary ones. Any pros, cons?
 
Buy one it's a great knife and a great company backs it up. They'll sharpen it for free and/or repair it. DM
 
A must have. Simple as that. I've got a 50th anniversary and a custom, and I want another (maybe in D2); should one ever be made in 1095, I'd get it in a heartbeat--I'd love to see one with a serious patina.

Here is my favorite:

Even if you don't like Traditional designs (albeit large ones), you need a Buck 110. Everyone is supposed to have one.
 
If you want a 50th anniversary edition, act now, because they are going out of production at the end of 2014.
 
It is a great knife. It is heavy, though. I used this on our farm and my father used a 112. It is the one knife that held up to the hard use (not abuse) that we put knives through. This knife skinned deer, cut bulls, mended fences, cut hay bale strings (tough on an edge), cut wire, worked on cars, was a screwdriver, a light emergency hammer, fish skinner, cord cutter, tree and limb feller, brush clearer, and much more. It did it all with no complaints, but other knives could not take it. Buy it, use it, and enjoy it.
 
Great knife, and worth $42 in my opinion, but I see them going NIB in my area for $29.99. They are a solid knife and cut like the devil. They have a specific purpose though, field dressing and skinning large game. They have a blade with a heavy spine but a thin hollow ground edge. Not a knife that I find myself needing as I prefer a fixed blade for field dressing game simply because they are easier to clean as a folder.

Its still a classic and every knife guy should have one. Its also quite possible one of, if not the, strongest locking folders on the planet. They look right at home in a leather sheath on your belt.

I personally am not crazy about the 25th anniversary version, and would prefer to buy a used one if I was looking.
 
uh oh...someone said its a "strong folder" :D


an American classic, and well worth the $$$

Does this version have the stamp in the middle of the handle?
 
It is in my opinion one of the finest knives ever made.
The design and materials really do something for me, and the quality and prce are both very nice as well.
There are other knives that are stronger or more practical, lighter and with better fit and finish, but the buck 110 is a classic icon and is a must have for people than appreciate both beauty and function.
 
Armenate, No the one Aias shows is a Buck Custom. The one your inquiring about, some have the '50' year emblem on the handle, some don't. Shop around to find one. Don't delay as they are being discontinued soon.
Aias, here is the 110 with D2 blade. DM
 
I have one. It is built well, but the thing is a freaking boat anchor! 7.2 ounces is WAY to much for a knife.
 
I've been pocket carrying mine over the past month and I've really do enjoy when I get the opportunity to use it. It weight is very similar to that of my phone and wallet. I would say go for it. Buck has a lifetime warranty and a phenomenal repair service. I sent in a chipped and scratched to hell 119 and they reground and sharpened it for the price of return shipping, eight dollars.
