All About Pocket Knives

Are the 110, 112 and 055 the only knives Buck made in this particular style/pattern?

111 also.

The Buck 111 is out there in several guises; I have one of the original style with the engraved aluminum handles. I don't have the later Buck 111 with the curved brass bolsters and wood panel handles (looks like a big 55). OH

Jerry, there is also the Buck 560; all of these later Buck knives used the 110 blade and built the body of different materials - guess Buck figured you can't get too much of a good thing! OH

Here you go Jerry, I found this Blade Forum picture through the BING search engine. These are part of the second generation of the Buck 111 (post-aluminum body version). OH

Thank you Luis and Colonel. I was really asking about the wood panel handled knives. So it's 110, 111, 112 & 055.

The new 110 Lochsa looks like a good one. S30V blade, pocket clip and thumb stud!

I love the 110 and 112 knives. Here are mine. Don't know much about them as far as age. The 110 I bought new maybe 5 or 8 years ago. The 112 was my dads so I don't know how old it is.

Here's a Buck chart that might help you come up with a date.

Thanks.

If you're a Buck person JW, that chart is a real handy thing to have around.

I will be printing a copy for my wallet. I mostly collect Case knives but have lots of Buck knives too that I have amassed over the years. I am very fond of the 110 and 112 series though.



Looks like my 112 is from 1994 and my 110 is from 2007.

Looks like.

Since the question was on wood. Be aware from sometime in the 90's veneer wood replaced solid wood in all models. There would be a veneer of ebony looking wood on top. Look closely from the side to see the thin layers. That would be for standard factory production. Specials, custom shop, etc can be solid wood scales. FYI Dymondwood material was/is made in the same manner. 300Bucks
