if you can't handle the weight of the thing I think taking up weight lifting might be the solution![]()
The OP has not come back to tell us if he actually picked up a 110 and if so how he feels about it.
tipoc
Seems to be a lot of fretting over a $30 knife.
It is not always about money, Honey! As I have said here, I am, probably, last of this generation in my family (look at the world! How COULD anyone reproduce! Curse a soul to "this planet"!) and intend to keep my inventory small. For that, I need to absolutely sure about the knife that I am buying. The best-deal price difference between my two shortlisted ones is 2.5X and that does not matter.
However, to back on what I said, I am buying both. Will gift the Kershaw Blur S30V to some deserving friend, keeping the Buck 110 for my daily vanity.
this is an 8 year old thread.... did ya realize that?
Yes; '81 was when I bought my first one (shown)people back in the 80's carrying buck 110's
Are you kidding . . . it's a heavy duty, continuous use duty rated, truck !How do the 110's hold up to everyday use?
Yeah that's were I start having a problem for my personal EDC use. Look at that kerf !or cut cardboard

I started up a new 110 thread today so figured why not jump in here ?this is an 8 year old thread.... did ya realize that?
OK . . . old thread . . . couldn't resist answering original OP anyway. Then I will look at the most recent posts. Got to get into the spirit first.
These are old photos except the second one which I took today.

Bogs down in double wall corrugated boxes, the belly pops the blade up out of the cut. Awful box knife.
My favorite knives for what I do are along the lines of the one that shows zero kerf; third from left. That blade is a third the width of the 110. Maybe one day I will get another and grind it thin.
