Day 30 +1 - with the new LT at work. Airport grounds near parking structure not TSA govern. 
Almost forgot it was in back pocket.

Hmmmmm.....

I'd say it's very capable. But it is a shorter knife (3"). And the handle is shorter too. So.....it's a different folder to be sure. I think it is more than capable for most daily EDC tasks. But I also find that that a 3.5" to 4.5" knife (blade) is really handy at times.

I think that's why I still favor the 110, it's just the thing for some bigger tasks.

Honestly, I find the 112 more 'fun' because of it's size, but for going off adventuring, the 110 gets the call. That may just be me. I remember reading an article in a magazine about 10 years ago where the author thought the 112 was superior to the 110. That really intrigued me. I think weight and size were the main factors in his assessment, but he found the knife just as capable (for his uses) and thought it was sturdier.

I think you have to try a 112 for yourself.....he he he.... :pok:


Now to decide if a regular 112 or the Lite version. I’m leaning toward the Lite due to the lanyard hole. I think I could adapt a pocket clip to fit that hole!

for what they cost...get both!!  :D
Yes, like the old 112,  110 also cannot be sheath carried,  might try 112 in pocket. ...

I'm not sure why exactly, but I really like that pic Loops.  :salute:

Same goes for yours too Nix, that's a very handsome knife you've got there.

Challenge +2:

I continue to find this knife a joy and pleasure to use and carry. My new SAK is riding in my pocket caddy and I just slipped the 110 into my back pocket.

I'm making beef stock today and the 110 made quick work of the ingredients. That's a pretty big onion, and trimming it and cutting it in half is a nice example of how a 4" knife can be handier than one of those tiny SAK's or 112. Sure, I could have grabbed a kitchen knife, but this is the 110 challenge.




I like this shot because is shows some of the patina that this 5160 110 has started to develop over the course of this challenge. I'm not sure if I'll polish that out once the challenge is over or just keep it as a visual memento of the challenge.

CHALLENGE +2

It was truck delivery day again and the 110 broke down more boxes, but the delivery did not come 'til lunch hour so I did not have my camera with me.(normally I am working by myself when the delivery comes)

I had to throw the boxes out as I broke them down to stay out of the way of the kitchen help.

Afterwords my Buck 110 hung out with a couple of light weights.

Thanks for the badge Z, and for Nix for getting this challenge organized and going!  Vicman, thanks for all your encouragement and kind remarks!  This was a very good time, and I've learned a new respect for the mighty 110!
