san diego 112 or 110 owners

[paul brown]

I think I would like to purchase one of these knives, but have not been able to find a store that has either to handle. If there is anyone that lives around san diego and wouldn't mind me taking a look at their knife, I would appreciate it. thanks

Paul, can you provide more information? I'm not sure what knives you are talking about.

 

[paul brown]

either a buck 112 ranger or 110, don't know which I would prefer. holding both would be great.

No Walmarts in San Diego? Was never in one that didn't carry the 110.

Can you provide a photo of what you are looking for? I'm a bit slow I guess, still don't know what you are asking for.

 

[David Martin]

He wants to handle both a 110 & 112, at the same time and compare them. DM

OK, I get it David.

If David is correct Paul and you want to handle a 112 to see what you think of one let me know. You have plenty 110's so you already know what they feel like. Are you thinking about expanding your collecting habits?

I think somebody is yanking your chains, LOL Paul Brown goes by Chilebrown here. I went to see how many posts Paul Brown has and that feature does not appear anymore.

 

[GPyro]

Amazon has both with free returns.
Cannot get any easier than that.

 

[paul brown]

This is a different Paul brown, he just joined 11 days ago. This could be interesting.

Here are pictures of a 110 and 112, the 110 is bigger! Comparing a real 110 to the picture it is a little smaller than the one showing, not by much.

The weird thing is because of the front bolster shape the 112’s handle doesn’t seem too small, but because I’m used to the 110, the 112’s blade seems too small for me.

Both are great knives, but I would only choose the 112 over a 110 for legal reasons. If the 110 was too big for a local restriction.

The other weird thing. I like the clip point on a 110, but very much prefer the drop point on a 112.

Your mileage may varying

 

[paul brown]

bought a 112 on the bay yesterday, thanks

 

[jb4570]

Sorry MR. Brown for thinking you were someone else. Welcome to the Buck forum! I think you should buy one of each a 110 and a 112. Now that you have a 112 coming, let us know your thought when you have it in hand.

"buy one of each"

No. Such. Thing.

All Walmarts carry the skinpacked version; cannot open until you purchase....
