Well I impulse stopped by at bass pro shop to pick me up a buck 55...
And I was shocked that it retailed for only $5 less than a new buck 110
And I sat there for a good 20 minutes before saying ...nope

But I DID walk out with a brand new buck 112 slim for just slightly more than half the price of that 55.
So there is that

Who'd have thunk it, in all my years and all my years of collecting knives I have never owned a buck 110 or 112

Until today

Seems I got a fairly decent example
Real good lock up, absolutely no blade play
And decent enough blade centering
And only 2.5 ounces for a 3" blade

I'm pretty stoked

They may not be fancy but the slim line make for great EDC. Love mine!

Oh I don't
I said first 112/110 not my first buck

I also have a 113, 442, 309 and a 303
I HAD a 301 but the bugger slipped out of my pocket and walked away some years ago

I don’t know why you were surprised at the price of the 55?

It uses a little less material but involves all the same manufacturing processes as the 110.

Really the 110 is the bargain, they make so many they can sell them cheaper.

Kind of the same with the 112, it always seemed strange it cost as much or a little more than the 110.

Scheels has 301's for $29. I almost took one home today.
