These two just arrived.I wanted a color that was more visible than the dark colors of the past.
I've only had these for a few minutes and I couldn't help but notice the much tighter lock-up than the LT's.
These are the new "Thin" 110 and 112.
Nice duo toolguy! :like: :tu: :tu:

Noah has really awakened my love for, and interest in, Buck knives.  Pictured I'd my beloved 110 next to an early '90's 119 that belonged to my late uncle.  He was also my best friend growing up, and we chased many a rabbit thru the old farm fields.  With the exception of a Barlow, all he ever owned and carried was 119's.  I know he would have loved the 110. Like the SAKs, I'm continuously amazed at how versatile the big Bucks are.

The standard sheath is ridding too high on the belt for my liking.
So I modded, much more comfortable now.


Nice mod Kampfer! :like: :tu: :tu:

Nice sheath mod, you should make an open topped one out of leather too,  I've been carrying a 110 and a 112 since the early 70's. I bought a 112 in Germany at the Rhein-Main Rod & Gun Club in 1974 and carried it daily for the rest of my tour,  I had been carrying a Puma Game Warden son I never bothered with the 110 until I bought my first in '79. The weight has never bothered my although I may look at picking up one of the new light weight 112's.

I've finally joined the 110 ownership group.  I had one a while back but pops took it from me.  I got this 1978-79 ( dated using BFs ) in really rough condition.  I spent about 3 hours getting it to this condition.  The worst is still needing to be addressed.  Lots of chips on the blades edge.  I will address it at a later time.  The knife will push cut paper and shave albeit it get hung up on the remaining chips. 

I am really bummed I didn't take before pictures so you can see the work I put into it.  I didn't want to take all the character away just give it a good cleaning and light polish.  Its a gorgeous specimen if I do say so. 

The sheath was dry and nasty.  I don't know if its original but its nice.  I cleaned with saddle soap then heated it up lightly and used my beeswax mix I recently made up.  This sheath really drank in the mixture.  Its nice and supple now.  I'll give it one more coating over night and call it good. 

The knife was wiped with brass cleaner, the blade was lightly wiped with 0000 steel wool and mothers mag wheel polish.  There are a few pitted areas that give this blade some character.  I took a damp cloth to wipe down the ebony slabs.  I then treated the wood to my beeswax mixture. 

I spent some time on my Lansky getting a lot of the chips out.  Like I said there are a few more but I dont want to change the profile too much.  I'd have to take away quite a bit steel to get them out.  For now I'm happy.  No Buck spa treatment for me as I don't want too much done. 

Thanks for looking.

I really wished I took before pics.  Y'all aint gonna believe what it took to get it to look like this.  Slow and steady wiping.  It was really in rough shape.  Lots of who knows what on the blade.  The blade is pretty well centered for an old timer.

Last pic.  The pitting or missing metal give the blade some nice character.  I almost sanded it flush but I'm glad I stopped when I did on this knife.

I've been very tempted to buy a new one several times.  Thing is, I see these all the time at the flea market but the sellers want high prices.  It'd be ok if the knife was in good condition.  Most of what I see are knives with blades that look like they've been "sharpened" with an angle grinder.  Broken tips is what I see mostly.  I almost bit a few times cause the vintage of the knife BUT they just never seemed worth it after a second look.  This guys knife the knife needed work and he knew it.  He had no clue its age but because it was in rough shape he concluded it was old. 

The sheath was nasty.  The blade had tape, glue, or something really stuck on it.  The bolsters had some pretty gnarly "patina".  The wood was also very sticky.  I think he was thinking I was the sucker.   :rofl:.  I enjoy the process so its part of the buying experience for me.  I just wished I would have taken pics.  I got home, took care of a few things, then got right into it. 

Anyway, a long ramble just to say, I totally agree with you  :tu:

I've finally joined the 110 ownership group.  I had one a while back but pops took it from me.  I got this 1978-79 ( dated using BFs ) in really rough condition.  I spent about 3 hours getting it to this condition.  The worst is still needing to be addressed.  Lots of chips on the blades edge.  I will address it at a later time.  The knife will push cut paper and shave albeit it get hung up on the remaining chips. 


Nice find Aloha! :like: :tu: :tu:

Great job Aloha :hatsoff:

Rescuing a old or neglected knife has much satisfaction.  I would do the same with 70s and 80s bicycles, then give them to kids in the neighborhood who needed a larger frame, or were interested in drop handle road bikes for riding the pathways nearby.

Your Buck will likely tell tales of neglect and abuse if it could talk.  A knife rescue for sure.  And now a new devoted friend at your side that will be at the ready with a SHARP lookout.

4 thumbs up from me -  :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu:
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!
