What is the difference

[BRAXTONSLEEGER184]

Hello Again,
Can anyone tell me the difference between a 1 dash and a 2 dash 110.

 

[GPyro]

1 dash.

Seriously... that's about it. Could have been more obscure and said an "N". (See if anyone gets that. )

Hello Again,
Can anyone tell me the difference between a 1 dash and a 2 dash 110.

The single dash is the date code 1992. The two dash is also 1992 but it signifies a change in the production process. I can’t remember what the change was but there was a thread about it in the last couple years that was explained.

Hello Again,

1992 date code is a single dash. Don't know year of 2 dashes.

Do a Google for - "how old is my Buck knife". This will show you the date codes.

EDIT: see answer above.

Sorry to hijack, but I just unpacked my old 105, which I bought used sometime in the late 90s, and it's got one dash to the right of the "105". Does that mean it's 425M? Only asking out of idle curiosity.

Pretty slick, the first edition of the switch in steels.

Oh cool, I hadn't seen that. Single horizontal dash, the page says that's 1992. Thank you!

The single dash 110 may be more rare than the double,,

Dont recall ever seeing a single dash.. 110

Oh me.... was digging through the accumulation looking for something else and opened up a minty 112 with a single dash. And it has a Texas outline on a bolster along with a bull and oil well..
verrry sharp..

 

[bucksway]

Pack Rat..pic of that odd 112?

 

[Pack Rat]

112-
I suspect this was an employee gift from some Oil Company.. Sure wasnt the one I was working for in 1992..
Picked this one up at a gun show in Houston.

Thanks for the pic!

Im wondering if 1992 and 425 to 420 is just one of the changes in 1992..
Digging through the herd found a 110 double dash, Aqua Fibron, [n Nickle Silver..
Pretty sure its the oldest NS I have..
Just curious what else might have gone on in 1992??
