Buck 110.
Standard 420HC clip point blade.
Nicklel Silver bolsters, liners, and pins.
Buck's classic, smooth yellow Derlin covers or solid yellow G10 covers

What y'all think? Would it be popular?
 
I would prefer a drop point and the Delrin. I think the Delrin looks more traditional and so fits the 110.
I do like the idea.

Now, if you went with a pocket clip and more "tacticool" then I would go with the G10 unless it run the price up.
 
I like Derlin and have often thought the 110 would look good with nickel bolsters and BLACK Derlin as a nod to the black Phenolic of the 100 series.

Personally, when I see yellow (or yeller) I think of Case or Camillus US.

I like drop points too but am curious to get the new 486 in my hand. That might be my pick for a 110 reblade, minus the thumb stud.
 
I like the idea of smooth yellow Derlin 110. Sounds like a classic and classy look. It would be nice with a pewter Buck logo inlay too.
 
I would rather have yellow G10. It is a lot more durable and looks good. No pocket clip, please.
 
Why choose? How about they do both and pair them as a boxed set with the corresponding 301?

I think it's an awesome idea (the derlin, yellow or black either way).

I like the sound of a nickle silver 110 with yellow Delrin. Add a 1095 carbon steel blade and i will buy two or three.

I mentioned the G10 because black G10 is a custom shop option. I figured the yellow would use the same amount of time, tools, and techniques as the black, when fitted to the knife. As far as I know, black and yellow G10 costs the same for the same size blank(s).

Nice to know I 'm not the only one who would want one.
 
Yellow G10 would be far more durable than the Delrin and hold up to cleaners better. Good stuff. The color is great if you ever drop you knife while using it because it is easy to see. A Custom Shop offering would be sweet.
 
Oh, and I would LOVE a little jimping on the back of the blade for my thumb. Please, it can't be that $$$ to do.
 
I'm not a big fan of the yellow derlin. Heck I have been over on the custom shop site in awhile. I didn't know they had black g10. That would make a dressy looking 110 imho.
