Here is an old 1967 3rd/1st that a previous owner rounded off the frame.
It's in great shape, but no use for a collection.
I'm thinking of putting a pocket clip on it and add it to my EDC rotation. It would be my oldest user.
Here is a spare 1964 1st/2nd that I bought from Joe Houser several years ago.
The blade etch had worn of, so he had Leroy add "Buck" back to it where it belonged.
Speaking of Leroy here is one I bought from him at the BCCI 25th Anniversary event in Post Falls, ID a couple years ago.
It is even more beautiful-er in person than these photos show.
Very nice black Micarta with finger grooves, nickel silver frame and bolsters, and a satin finish 154CM blade. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
Wow, 7am and at 30 posts. ITE and stumps have been busy. Poking around the cabinets, I discovered I must have bought a lot more 110's over the years than I thought. Kinda snuck up on me. 99% of them have never been photoed. Will try to get at some new ones this afternoon. I'm going to start the day with a bunch of repeats. Here is one of my earliest 110 photos I ever posted on this forum. A pair of double dashes.
When I took this picture years ago, these 4 knives represented 50% of the 110's in my collection. Front to Back. A 2-Dot 110, 4-dot 110, 1992 2-Dash 110, and a 1996 Grey Titanium 560. The rearmost knife is an Aurum etched Pteranodon.
Another MATC0 110 for the show This knife commemorates MATCO tools first sponsorship of a national NHRA event, the 1997 drag racing SuperNationals. As bonus for MATCO, Dean Skuza's MATCO Tools sponsored nitro funny car won his event. The MATCO emblem looks like a decal but is actually recessed into a cutout on the scale. I found it in the 1997 Special Projects list but no quantity was given.
The 2009 special projects list shows that 1,000 of these 110's were made for Smoky Mountain Knife Works. Bone handles dyed a nice dark mahogany color with a nickel silver Buck logo inlayed. These were a bargain at $54.95 from SMKW. The SMKW knives that I've seen had plain nickel silver bolsters. I believe the engraved ones were a Christmas special but not sure.
