Scott,
I will answer your inquiry on the blade forum
so that all may be informed.
You responded by email that the 110 is stamped Buck dot across the tang and that it
has no spacer between the bolster halves.
Actually, in this version, the bolster has an
integral spacer. One half of the bolster is
extra wide to make-up the space later occupied by a brass and later yet, a steel
spacer.
The version 110 you have is as follows:
1/2 inch through bolsters
440c blade steel
brass rocker rivet
squared frame edges
press fit cast brass frame halves (there may
or may not be end pins through the bolster
opposite pivot end. The halves were designed
to press-fit together. As this often, even
usually did not work, the pins were drilled and one or more brass pins were peened into
the drilled holes)
This version would have been produced from
1966 - 1968. Value is probably $150- 175
if in unsharpened, unused condition. HOWEVER, I have seen identical knives on dealer tables at knife shows priced much
higher ($175 - 250) and the knives were very
used and worn. As always, value is what someone is willing to pay on a given day.
I hope this helps and if anyone is able to
better address value, I would welcome your
input.
