I'm in the process of taking digital pictures of my knife collection, for the purpose of making a screensaver of my knives. Thought I would show off some recent ones.

The first pic' is my Asian Buffalo Horn 110 that I got for XMASS a few months back, right before they closed the shop to move.

The second pic' is it along with it's brothers, Sambar Stag, Elk and Buff'.

The last pic' is my Elk 110 with a Victorinox SAK Super Tinker model that I sent off to a guy in California and had Elk scales made for it, to make it a companion piece to the 110.

Yep, all the 110's are from the custom shop at Buck, and that background is a pile of Maple bark laying on the ground in my yard!
 
Very nice indeed! Like you, I also have Custom 110's with the same handles. (nickel silver & BG-42) Hoping for Custom 112's from Idaho at some point.
 
TLC,

That Asian Buffalo is really starting to grow on me. I think there may have to be one of those in my future.

Those are some really beautiful knives that give me some ideas for future endeavors. I'm a relatively new "official" knife collector although I've owned Buck knives for more than 40 years. I currently have seven, but only recently got my first custom 110. Here's a link to it. I'm sure it won't be the last. :D

Nice knife!, flamewood is on my list for one as soon as I get another horn on, then I 'll have 1 of each of the 4 types of horn they offer.

As yes, they do tend to pile up, all I wanted at first was a knife as close to the knife in the movie "The Edge" as I could get on my budget, so I ordered an Elk scaled Buck 110.....now I have almost 30 110's in my collection.

I think I need a support group!

Hey Mike, I took the time to view the rest of your 110's, nice collection, but this one is WILD, is it 2 knives stacked one on top of the other, or is it really a 2 blade knife?

Last Confederate, Don Luis is correct. The double bladed 110/112 transition knife came out late last year and I had to have it. It is difficult to close one blade because the other lock release is in the way of the other so I don't envison me using it, but it is a cool knife that will probably not come along again. By the way, my collection of Buck knives continues to grow. My wife bought me a new Buck May 172 for my birthday and I treated myself to a new Sirus ATS 34 model 298GY :D :D

Cool, I already checked out teh SMKW link for that transition, but they are out of stock.

I am kinda jazzed up tongiht, I won an ebay auction today for a Buck 426, the lightweight version of the 110...I have wanted one for my collection for awhile, but they kept slipping away from me, but I finally won one today.
