The knife I 'won' from the recent raffle arrived today, a special model 110
with nickle bolsters, Stag scales and a VERY sharp BG-42 blade!

Thanks Joe Houser for getting this finished and sent out and thanks Evil Eye Earl for your help as well, what a beauty! :)

Congratulations Gary,that's a great 110 specimen. Hats off to Joe H. and Buck Knives for such a fine offering. Super nice fitting on the Stag between the bolsters.
 
Congratulations Gary! Thats a Beauty!!!
Thanks again to Joe and Buck Knives for making all of those great customs happen!
 
congrats g2 i would say that one is a keeper
i can read the buck custom tang stamp but what is stamped on the reverse ?
 
Thanks guys, it is very nice and what the tang says on the other side is

Designer's Choice

thanks g2 i have never seen that on a blade before guess i have been collecting the wrong ones;)
forgot to add thanks for posting the pics :thumbup: guess i got the wrong camers too:o
 
wonderfull looking knife and great picts also! your dog should be named lucky at least! good work by Joe too!
 
Thanks Dave, they were quickly done but did come out half way decent
I laid in a small piece of leather so the blade would stay partially open
otherwise that back spring would have slammed it shut from that position ;)

and he's a crop from the one shot up there for a closeup of the blade;

That's gotta be one of the nicest 110's I've EVER seen! Congrats!:thumbup:
 
Gary, congrats on the knife:thumbup: Ya know a knife that nice needs a special sheath...you might know someone that could do that;)...please post a pic of the knife and sheath when done. Preston
 
Yep! Great pics...
What camera and settings were used?

Thanks guys, camera used is a Canon EOS 20D with a 17-40 lens
shutter was 200/sec at f20 using a single flash through a nice
contraption called an EZ Cube, something that a friend in Utah
donated a while back and he's just getting around to use his now
too! Thanks again Win, :)

The last shot was done using my 35mm lens at f2.2 so the background
is thrown out of focus to make it look sort of 3D
