Thanks for the the information! In that case, I'll leave the prying to my cheap Chinese pocket knife :D

Yes sir!
I put about 15 minutes into the blade and it's nice and sharp now. Could shave my face if I were to find myself a fugitive on the run :rolleyes:

One of my favorite knives. The one I have is probably 40 years old. The blade is a little shorter than original, they do break off!

With how I am with things it may only survive 20 years :oops:

Thanks Firpo :D

Well, it might look better if it matched, but I kinda like the real leather look. Hmm....

Hey guys, would you call me strange if that rear pouch was brown? :(

Mine is about 40 years old, too. It has gone with me on every hunting since I bought it. It is the only knife I have ever used to gut a deer with and it has gutted a few.
I've aquired about 5 110's.A little more time involved in sharpening but worth the effort.I've field dressed 3 deer before the blade needs touching up.How'lin,a company called "Triple K Mfg. Co. makes a fine leather pouch type sheath that I use.Perfect snug fit and inexpensive.Style 608 "SONORAN" 5".They're out of San Diego.

My grandson is 34 years old. I gave him a Buck 110 for his 6th birthday with a stipulation that he leave it in my knife box until he was older. I took him deer hunting and he sat in the blind with me that year. We used a tree blind and when we returned home his knife was missing. We had hunted in Sonora, Texas that trip, on a friend's ranch and wouldn't make the trip again until the following deer season.

When we returned to Sonora and the ranch, he wanted to go to that tree immediately. We saddled our horses and rode out. Would you believe it? He found the knife in it's sheath within a minute. It was no worse for wear except a rodent of some kind had chewed a bit on the sheath. He makes it a point to dress his deer every year using that knife. Memories......

I think I bought this Buck knife back in 1988.The only times I ever used it was gutting a couple of deers and I used it to carve a hiking stick at Mount Charleston outside of Las Vegas another time.I don't even know what model it is.The blades been sharpened like a razor on some sharpening stones I have had for years also.The brass could use some polishing somehow,it would look a lot better.

"Hollow ground" is not how I would describe the old Buck blades.
"Terrible grind" is more like it. I wouldn't own one.
There is no reason to grind a blade that way- leaving a big ridge at the apex of the bevel.
Buck has since seen the error of their ways, and does a proper grind on their blades now.

I have lost every buck 110 (if you count people stealing them as lost) I have ever owned. I now have a little buck 2 blade pen knife I carry every where. I do have an old Buck Triple stone that I bought in 1974 at the Navy exchange that I sharpen every knife in the house with still. That Washita stone on it makes a huge difference in Sharp! I think I will ask for a Buck 110 for my birthday this year from my daughter, she is only 4 years behind in even giving me a card:eek:
