[@CuttingEdgetools]

Awesome John. Thanks for sharing. Bought My first Buck 1973’ bought a 110 and a 112.

Hey Dwayne, That is one of those "If only knives could talk" finds! I agree whole-heartedly, leave it just as it is, patina is great and that old, battered sheath is great! Enjoy Sir, Happy Holidays, Blsgs, gg 🙏✝️✝️🇺🇸🙋☝️

Great video. Love to find those old Bucks.

[@beaurex4756]

I have the 110 I bought in 1969 or 1970. My nephew damaged it on a fishing trip in the 1980s and it sat in a drawer for 30+ years. Then I sent it off to Buck. They repaired it and refinished it to like-new condition. One of my prized possessions.

[@CuttingEdgetools]

@@beaurex4756 that’s awesome stuff there. A treasure for sure 👍 Buck is a truly great honorable company.

[@beaurex4756]

@CuttingEdgetools The blade shape on that early knife is quite different than later models. The clip-point is slimmer, more delicate, easier to damage if used as a pry-bar. The Original sheath is in excellent condition.

[@CuttingEdgetools]

@ thanks for sharing. Yes indeed. This Early 110’s Frame is a bit thinner. The pins are smaller too! Definitely not as Robust as later 110’s. The knife overall shows signs of hand made VS later refined Tooling

[@bostonbladereviews919]

What a find !! And congrats!! I’ve been collecting bucks for some time now , and still haven’t ran into one of them! That’s a find of a lifetime !!

[@CuttingEdgetools]

Thanks Boston. In 45 years I remember only seeing one at a gun show in a guys case with a sticker on the sheath saying 1960s Buck 110. I didn’t check it out so it could been a 2 liner. If I remember,The sheath wasn’t like this one. I likely passed a couple up years back -when my focus was Antique Bowie Knives Best! Dwayne

[@bigjsknives]

That is a heck of a find right there!! Can only imagine how much work that tool was used for, and to have that sheath with it, wow!! Thanks for sharing this one!!

[@michaeltomlinson3213]

Great find, I just found a 110 Two-Line Inverted a week ago at a flea market had been needing one for my 110 collection. Now I need one like yours, there's always something to be looking for when collecting.

[@CuttingEdgetools]

Awesome. Thanks for sharing. The hunt is good times. Best of luck and Happy thanksgiving 🇺🇸

[@CalvinMorris-cf8jk]

find of a lifetime for a lot of collectors👍

[@OzarksBoy-g8n]

Great advice Dwayne, and a great knife. Thanks for sharing it with us. Have a great week.

[@CuttingEdgetools]

Thank you. Happy Thanksgiving to My Missouri friends ❤️🇺🇸

[@cliffordmaynard6559]

Great looking old Buck.

[@RonaldNorwood-kn4bo]

Dwayne you gotta know how much we appreciate you too! You have a very unique channel that hits home here. To me the very dark handles are a dead giveaway that it’s an early one.

[@CuttingEdgetools]

Thanks for the kind words Ron. 🇺🇸

[@R.H.bladeNshade]

Wow Brother that is an amazing piece to have for sure. Surely hard to find them that old!! Amazing! Thanks for sharing it

[@CuttingEdgetools]

Thanks for watching and sharing R H. Best! Dwayne

[@georgestark4100]

I just bought a couple new Buck 110 knives for my grandsons for Christmas

[@CuttingEdgetools]

Still going strong My Old friend. The Best Christmas present you could give to a G Son❤️🇺🇸

[@blacklisted4885]

Been sharpened plenty on a bench stone. Almost gone into convex grind. Very nice

[@radar468]

Big congratulations on finding that 110!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@mikeadams2538]

Lucky you! A great find. Appreciate the background info!

[@Wcquick]

great find in good condition, thumbs up

[@roubikderhovsepian2129]

Nice looking knife Mr Dwayne, thanks again for sharing.

[@angd683]

So is it a pre 67 with the original sheath?

[@wizardofahhhs759]

I think someone with expendable cash owned that knife, new models always cost more when they are first introduced.

[@Kodiak_Edge]

First introduction 1965 Bucks where $16.00 new in 1965, today there would be a $144.34 increase adjusted for inflation so that knife today would be $164.34 to buy it now, these where the introduction Bucks he has here just $16.00 bucks! no pun intended lol

[@wizardofahhhs759]

$16.00 was a lot of money back in 1965.

[@Kodiak_Edge]

@@wizardofahhhs759 sure it was like16 bucks would be $164.35 today for a Buck 110 is adjusted for inflation right like I said

[@Kodiak_Edge]

@@wizardofahhhs759 So essentially we are paying now $100.00 to less for a 110, but being a first run in 1965 i can see the point because a premium Buck 110 is at around $164.35 lol

[@anthonyrollins9825]

and the cherry on top you didn't mention it is in the blade steel Buck built their company and reputation on , 440C ( that is right 420Hc didn't come around till 80-81 in 79 they switched to H1 for a year ( horrible failure )) so 64-79 = 440C.

[@CuttingEdgetools]

Thanks for sharing 👍good stuff

[@Kodiak_Edge]

440C was to hard to sharpen and keep an edge on it why they switched to more high carbon steel from the 420HC easy to sharpen razor sharp quickly in the field, not to mention more high carbon and less Chromium the tougher the blade was and less returns from broken blades and chip out!

[@anthonyrollins9825]

@@Kodiak_Edge incorrect major driving reason for the blade steel change was financial 440C at the time was the super steel of the day and they did not go from 440C to 420HC they went from 440c to H1 and from H1 to 420HC.

[@Gerald-do9yg]

@@Kodiak_EdgeI've talked to many folks over the years who complained how hard Buck knives were to sharpen! Met a man awhile back who claimed to have gone through 7 blades on his 110! When he pulled it out to show me, the blade was in awful shape, like it had been on a bench grinder! At least he had a pretty sheath! Blsgs, gg🙏✝️🇺🇸🙋☝️
