Buck 110 Custom

Hoyt Buck produced the first Buck Knife in 1902. Hoyt and his son Al moved to San Diego and set up shop as H.H. Buck & Son in 1947. Al Buck revolutionized the knife industry in 1964 with the infamous Model 110 Folding Hunter. The company's innovative history and attention to quality have made for many great collectible knives.

Buck 110 Custom

Post by Kniferforever »

Good evening. Picked up this Buck Custom at the local flea marked today. I was wondering if anyone could shed any light on when this Buck 110 Custom might have been made. I wasn't sure if the Buck "dating" system applied to the custom knives or not.

Thanks for any input.
Tony

David.....it looks, and feels due to heavy weight, like pewter. I did find a photo of one other of these knives and it stated that the handle material on it was pewter as well.

Thank you
Tony
