Buck 110 - With or Without Finger Grooves?

[colubrid]

I have both and I like the one with finger grooves MUCH better. I have small hands and it fits me well.

With or without!

You can add your own grooves as was done by the 2nd on the left

I got it on eBAY, and while the guy kind of butchered the knife, I do like the balance.

Hiyo!

So I have that urge to get some knives, but I don't wanna spend all that much... So I figured, why not get a Buck 110? Doesn't cost that much, and it's one of those knives everyone should have (right?). So, I'm just curious, with or without the finger grooves? If they don't really make that much of a difference, might as well save the $8 eh?

I got one of each. I like both.

I was in high school when this thread was started lol

Have you handled both versions?
I like, and have both styles; but do feel a special affinity for the grooveless models.
Your omey: your choice.

I've owned both and prefer without but it's really what you like best.
I sent mine off to glennbad and he changed the covers to stag and I really like it so I would recomend stag covers.

Check the date. OP hasn’t even logged on since 2015

I hate the looks of finger grooves. No finger grooves for me

 

[jbmonkey]

bet op has had one of each by now......

 

[The True North]

With grooves feels a lot better in my opinion.


Fun topic even though OP is elderly now.

Mine is a 110FG that the Australian Buck agent gave me as a freeby when I was in the trade back in the late 80s.

Ok we are really doing this? I’ll contribute to the resurrection

. My favorite only has 1 finger groove.

Next to a factory finger groove. See how it moves my grip forward a little? It’s pretty sweet!

 

[Bob Denman]

And we're off to the races...

Groovy, baby.

I prefer no finger grooves.
