Probably no other knife; with the possible exception of the Bowie, has generated so many interpratations and downright copies as the Buck 110 lockback folder.
Here are some from my accumulation. Most follow the pattern of the original very closely; that being a curved frame about 5 in.long with brass liners and bolsters at both ends, wood handles, lock release at the rear, and a clip point blade about 3 in.long.
Some vary in size, others in shape, while others in handle and bolster materials. One fact is certain though: they all owe their heritage to the BUCK 110!
The Buck 110 & its many imitators....

Lots of good knives in there
Im a fan of the G96 brand.
I think I see the 990, 991, 970, 980, 965. Am I missing the 960? Thats the one that's often described as the 110 clone. Its 110 like for sure. Not nearly as sturdy, but more pocketable.

That's my Etsy store where I sell old knives and sometimes handmade knife accessories to support my knife habbit. Thanks for looking my friend.
