Buck 110 blade play?
on: July 09, 2018, 04:53:42 PM
Hey all,

I had out my 110 today, and noticed it has a decent amount of play in the blade when closed. When open it's tight as a drum. Do you know if they all do that, or is it just something that happens with use? Many thanks.

I can tell you that my 112 has no play at all open or closed and it's 30 years old or so.

I've had one or two 110's that had a bit of wiggle when closed, but, like yours, lock up tight when opened. I don't think it's an issue.

I've only had three 112's, and, like Steve's experience, they were all tight. But I suspect there are a few 112's out there that are a bit loose when closed and tight when 'locked & loaded'.  :tu:

I just checked 6 110's including a couple of Custom ones and a 1980's one.


All had a little side to side play when closed, but lock up solid when open.
