BUCK 110

Lol! It does look like a mushroom cloud!

Thanks for all the likes guys. I was on the fence at first, it is not what I was expecting, but it feels good in hand. 1 side has a swell that drops into my palm just right.

Stag is such a crap shoot, but in the end I'm always happy with it.

Copper and Clad have these on Amazon for a good deal. Same with the 112.
 
You can even make your own Selector blades.
Norm, I know you explained this to me at the dinner, on Tuesday at the 30th...I'm visually orientated so would you post a picture of the OEM 110 blade and a selector 110 blade? Also, the ones that you've modified to go into the 30th 110, if they're different? Thanks, Preston
 
I am EXTREMELY disappointed in the new laser "etched" blade, vs the stamped blade. This photo proves it with hardly any use.

The 2 blades on the left are factory original. The bushing in the “knapped” steel blade is stuck. I will have to press it out to put the blade in the 30 yr. knife.
The 4 in the middle have been modified by me to fit the Selector handles. I use a 5”X1/8” disc to cut the slot. The flat on the end of the blade is ground on a Sichtschleifscheibe (view grinding wheel). This is also known as a slot wheel grinder. You look through the slots in the wheel to watch the material being removed. The work is brought up underneath the spinning wheel with a strong light above the wheel. Don’t confuse a slotted blade with a slotted wheel. You paint the blade to be modified with Dykem. Clamp a Selector blade over the blade to be modified and trace the pattern of the slot and the flat at the end of the blade. I put the dye on the left side of the blade because I am right handed. I hold the taped blade in my right hand while cutting the slot. The flat isn’t as fussy.
The 2 on the right are factory Selectors. The (old style) varieties of Selector blades were offered in 10 shapes but only 1 steel. Any of the blades in the picture will fit in the 30 yr. knife as I will illustrate in the coming weeks. Are we having fun yet?
 
Those checkered 110s are very nice but I've never seen a 110 converted to liner lock .That's very interesting to say the least.
 
tony, i always like to see that pic of the checkered 110's

Me too...it's like 110 candy!

Those checkered 110s are very nice but I've never seen a 110 converted to liner lock .That's very interesting to say the least.

The Liner Locks were made around 1997. A couple hundred total. The two middle ones represent the two variations that were produced. The top one's blade is etched "Collectors Club Sample"...or something like that.
 
I'm pretty excited. I have 2, early to me, Buck 110s (1967/1969)that are like new and never sharpened so I hated to use them. Came across a 1969-1972 that is just rough enough to be a user but still has 95%+ blade, but the edge is about like a butter knife. Someone carved a cattle brand design in the wood. If I can get an edge on it, might make it my go-to knife for hunting a fishing. Ive never been good and getting an edge on older bucks if it was too far gone so I might send it in to buck and get a spa treatment.

Thought it was a custom conversion because of the rear bolsters. I haven't kept up with buck in years.
 
2TONYB, were do the checkered 110's come from? They remind me of 1911 grips with the diamond in the middle, very classy.

By all means send it in to the Buck Spa. One of the best using Buck's I own is *110* (two dot) that Buck cleaned and sharpened with the modern profile - the Edge 2000 on the 440C is a deer cleaning machine! For $7!! OH

Those checkered Dymondwood grips were used on the Master series knives. The pattern was created in the moldimg process. Some of the Colt stuff was done with checkering tools. These knives all have BG-42 blades.
