Thanks for all the knife photos, conversation and comedy.

Here is one more 112, a pimped up Finney custom.

Love that Finney 112 and always Gary Larson's humor!

Mr. Finney is a great one! Buccaneers are getting beat badly..

Clint, never count Brady out till the clock is gone to zero!

Sorry Clint, exciting end for sure.

Brady tied it with less than a minute ..But LA kicked a field goal to win.

Being a Detroit fan, it's always interesting watching all our former players win in playoff games, and World Series games....

I offered to buy a set of Buck Steak Knives. She likes our old CutCo ones better so I purchased one for my own use.
I really like the paperstone handle but the blade is a bit too long for my taste. Super sharp.

Not a toon, but had it saved...

An old 2 dot 112 I was given by my uncle years ago. Thought of sending it in for spa treatment many times, but can never decide.

Here is one Chuck handed out to all employees when the Idaho location was opened.
Buck 111. Nickel, walnut?, Idaho tang stamp and "The Buck starts here." On the blade.

I hadnt seen one of these before. Pretty cool.

 

[bucksway]

I sent a pic of the 111 to David lolol! Chuck was such a great man who truly loved the company as his family. His devotion to see his Legacy go on and in good hands is a big reason it has..

I'm late to the show. Since "The 55" was this month's BOTM. Figured I would do a pic on it along with a couple of others.

Better late than never, especially with a group of 55s like those!

wouter1967 Great picture and I like the shield tag in the corner.
I would have pushed the date range for 4-dots thru 1985 ending with the introduction of date codes in 1986.

Thank you for your input and kind words Roger.
I see what you mean. Let me explain how I thought the dating worked.

• 4-dots with square handle 1981-1983
• with slightly rounded edges 1983-1986
• with fully rounded handle 1984-1986

Do you mean to say that even the square handles were made all through to 1986?

[DeSotoSky]

wouter1967 I'm impressed. Clearly you have given 110 dating more careful thought than I have. My narrow focus was only on the tang stamp. I know 110 frame radiusing has been discussed here in the past and I've surely forgotten anything I ever knew. Don't recall if I ever saw specific dates associated with frame radiusing. Not my picture but the word "NEW" refers to the addded feature of radiused edges. Might be a good subject for a new thread of it's own. /Roger

Don't recall if I ever saw specific dates associated with frame radiusing.

I'm not sure whose notes these are, but I found them in my file with a date of 2011—that doesn't mean the original was 2011:

Eighth Version, (3 variations) Blade material 425 modified stainless

Variation 1. (1981) Left hand stamped BUCK, **110**, U.S.A., stainless rocker rivet and spring holder, one front and two rear inlay rivets.

Variation 2, (1982-1983) Same as variation 1 above except handles have hand radiused edges but no radius in the thumb depression area. Finger grooved model introduced.

Variation 3, (1983-1985) Same as variation 2 above except handles have full radius edges.

wouter1967 & bertl Good information. Thank you.
