In your opinion . . I am curious as to what the members here think are Bucks top 5 most popular knives?

Me personally, the 110 folding hunter is my number 1. After that Im not knowlegeable enough on Bucks to make a fair list.

Which brings me to my next question which is slightly off topic. But anyways . . Im suprised I dont see more talk about the 112 around here. Or esspecially why Buck doesnt offer 112 custom shop knives with better steel options. Seems like a slick little knife .

Could it be its not so popular because most people just go for the legendary 110 since they are pretty simliar knives?

Look forward to the replies. -Gary
 
Also a 112 fan. :thumbup:

The 110 is nice too (I have several). It's just I'd more often carry the 112, it fits a little better in the pocket. :)
 
buck 112 the Girly knife!
the lock back most gal's prefer to carry when no sissy knife will do!

yep it is a nice knife and i like it fine but it is too small for my hands
wish the 110 had the HooK that the 112 did!
 
The folders are usually more popular than fixed blades . Espically in town, walking the dog, ect.. But with 5 for a list a guy certainly has room for a couple fixed blades . Mine would be the 103 & 121, then a 110 with drop point blade, the 500 Duke and a 120 or the 9" from the Empress Trio set for kitchen work . I'd use the 121 in the kitchen as well . DM

110,its the best,sturdiest and reliable folding knife on the market and you cant beat the price.
 
419 folding Buck Kalinga w rosewood. It's a tradgety that they decided to discontinue this one.

Buck 111 as I like the nickle silver bolsters, and this knife doesn't get the attention it deserves.

Buck 110 an old favorite
 
I'm a big fan of the Cabelas AG's made by Buck w/S30V. My favorite AG's are the fixed Alpha Hunter, folder Alpha Hunter, Vanguard w/ rosewood handle, and 110 Hunter. Also like the Kalinga 419, along with the Vanguard and 110 in CPM 154 steel.

I posted earlier, in stating my appreciation of the 112. In respect to the OP's original question, I'll submit this list of what I'd like, as the top 5:

110/112 (I can't definitively establish which of these is truly 'BEST'; hence, they're side-by-side)
