1st. Model Buck 110

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.

Just for fun, thought I would let everyone know how I got the old Buck 110. I haver collected knives for 40+ years and never owned many Bucks. Had a chance to buy a box of knives and the 110 just happened to be in it. I did not know that it was a good one until I started looking in some books. I was sure surprised. The box of knives turned out to be pretty good, also had an old bone handle Henckels switchblade; 2 Lee Jr. custom hunting knives and several other good knives.
I have kept the 110 so far and it is the only Buck I have. might turn into some good trading stock someday. Sure would be nice to find a box and papers for it.
Anyway goes to show you never know what you can find.
