Buck Ranger (112) 1st production black micarta

Post by Rockingkj »

Just came in today’s mail. Buck Ranger with Black Micarta scales. The 1st production of the Buck Ranger used this handle material. Seen some estimates of under 1000 knives before the switch to wood. Pretty tough version to find and in nice shape harder yet.

Thanks. For some reason I collect 4 dot and earlier Buck 110’s and 112’s. Lots of variations that most folks don’t pay attention too or even know there is a difference.
