Impeccable workmanship. It's perfect. It's everything I hoped it would be. I'm extremely impressed with Buck and what they did with this knife.

I can't wait to start carrying and using it!

Thank you! Cherrywood handle & S30V steel. The satin finish on the blade is way nicer than on the standard 110s I've handled.

Looks great. I have to same one except with the nickel bolsters. Does yours have any blade play? I have 3 custom 110's and all have slight blade play. Not an issue, but just interesting.

My, my, and here I was thinking no one would get the references. I tried to be subtle.

The red looks really sharp. Good field knife, you drop it you wont have any trouble seeing it

Razdrazchelloveck · Apr 12, 2014

Quick question. I've been eyeing your knife since I ordered one similar to it. I don't see the Bos stamp on the tang. Is that just for 420HC blades?

The Bos stamp is clearly marked on the blade, nothing to worry about. The lighting hides it in my pictures, unfortunately.

So I emailed Buck and they said they just switched to laser etching the tang on custom 110s rather than a stamp, is that the case with yours?

Yup! It ain't traditional, but it's well-done and it suits the knife. I've got no complaints.
