Buck 110 bought right out of high school in early 70's

[Lakelife]

I bought a buck folding hunter 110 in the early 70's all it says is Buck 110 U.S.A. . I don't remember the exact time I bought it but it . How do I tell the date of it ? It came with a black leather sheath .thank you

You came to the right place! Several folks can tell you at a glance if you'll just post several good images of it from all sides & hold on!

Below is a link to a thread where the dating system for Buck knives is posted and discussed.

Yea no other markings than Buck 110 U.S.A. That's it

That looks like a 5th Version Variation 3 from about 1972-1974.

I cleaned a lot of pheasants with it . It was the first knife I ever bought . With my own money haha. Had it sharpened about 15 years ago by my friend . He could really put an edge on a knife . Then I put it away . I have 3 otherc110's a couple 112's . Thanks Merry Christmas

Very nice knife! Looks just like the knife my father just gave me. Near as I can figure, it’s a 72-74. Needs some cleaning and polishing,but I think it’s gonna be nice. I have before pics and I will post them with the afters, when I am done. I’m really looking forward to this.

Somewhere there's a description of the placement of rivets and number of rivets for each year up to the starting of the symbols. I have a '74, no year marking symbol, with the original sheath. Maybe somebody on here can tell you what year if you provide a pic. ftd
