Just wanted to share the "Duke"

[Scott Hartman]

I am in the process of reviewing my entire Buck collection, those to keep,those to sell:thumbdn: . I ran ran across this Franklin Mint & Buck knife collaboration. The 110 is from 1997 and is numbered 2214. Must have made alot of them, but I've only seen 1 other for sale. Handles look like checkered rosewood and the bolsters look engraved, but they might be cast in pewter, and the emblem has John Wayne's signature. Cool 110, just wanted to share some pic's.

Thanks for sharing Scott, some knives are just not to be sold. I think that one is a keeper. :thumbup:

Scott, you have such a nice collection, sorry to hear that you have to let some go. If that micarta 112 is one that you'll let go of, I'll give it a good home. Preston
