I collect and use the Buck 112 and have since 2007. But I just ordered one of these for $139.00. I have never been a steel snob or chased the latest and greatest new steel since Bucks 420 has always worked well for me but last year I bought a 112 Slim Pro Plus in S35VN and it was the absolute sharpest knife out of the box of any brand I've ever seen AND it stayed sharp for week after week with normal use! Bucks 112 in any super steel are hard to find and since I display them I hesitated to actually use them..even S30V. But that Slim Pro Plus really opened my eyes to the benefits of super steels and when Buck announced there first 'Stealth' run of any kind with the Magnacut 110 I decided to try it. Plus in my one day research on Magnacut steel most folks said it was possibly the best all around knife steel ever made. At less than $150.00 it was also the most reasonably priced knife I found in that steel. Bucks 110 has been around since 1964 and truly is a iconic knife but I know a lot of folks consider it old fashioned and kinda boring compared to the newer flashy models so many companies put out now. But I wanted to let yall know Buck stepped into 2023 with a Magnacut 110..
