I've seen those [or similar] before...I believe it's from a beginner knife mangler...He's most likely more experienced now... :thumbup:

Made by Buck factory....very few made.

There are also some made by us non-Buck peeps...I didn't make one, but there have been posts w/pics here made by others...

Looks like whoever did the job on that 110, couldn't tell their brass from a hole in the wall.

Hint #2....blade stamped side has 4 rivets and no brass bolsters .

So was this knife a pre-acrylic demo knife from Buck? Does the tension from the rocker bar keep the spring in place?

I like. Good-looking rivets really hit me.

 

[110 Dave]

well i did some checking ....
the first few years of makeing sales display 110's showing the working parts
DID NOT have a clear side!
they jest did not have one side at all !!!
you could touch the rocker and spring!!!
now there is one to look for !!
now i am off again in surch of another i dont have...
so many to find
so little time
and money...
and i DO like the rivets showing also!! most kool...

I wuz gonna say that!!

I've seen a couple without the acrylic like Dave mentioned. You might even run across one that was completely assembled, then portions ground away to expose the inner workings of the knife. These were made so that we could see the interelationship of the parts. We would make dimensional changes, assemble the knife, then grind parts away to see if all the parts were getting along with each other.

All, most interesting! Thanks TripleE for the photos. I'm embarassed to admit it but I had never seen the "inner-workings" of a 110 and really didnt have a clear understanding of how the thing worked!
I thought it was magik. Or maybe gnomes!
