Magnacut Buck 110

Yep. It's pretty glorious.

Regarding the price, I think the only cheaper magnacut I've seen so far is the Hogue Dekka. I have no experience with the model, but I suspect that a lot of makers just starting to use this steel aren't going to do the ideal heat treat to get it to the 63-64 hrc where it should be. But my guess is Buck will do the heat treat correctly, will be interesting to hear how it behaves!
production makers really should be aiming for 64-65 hrc. Even at that hardness, it’s still tougher than s30v, which is plenty tough for edc use and has been used commonly for years.
 
Buck DID sell a thousand in about 5 hours. Even with flippers that is flying out the door. I have no doubt at all we will see at least a LE or two this spring and hopefully a drop point! Given Bucks history of the 112 I really don't think a 112 version will happen this year but it's possible Buck might let a Take-Apart LE or BOTM 112 get out like the S45VN version did last year. That 112 was $250.00 plus? In some ways the 112 is still the Redheaded Stepchild of Bucks folders but CJ really stepped up for the 112 during the 50th anniversary. But still to this day Buck has never offered a drop point in any configuration of the Custom shop..
 
Why didn't they make more? I tried to buy one but, missed out.

1,000 in 5 hours? Is this just because of scalpers?

Magnacut is the hot new thing. By doing limited runs it increases the demand. I’m sure they will do more in the future. Not saying it’s a bad thing.
Plus scalpers probably bought a bunch to resell.
