Review: Buck 110 Knife
by Ben Sobieck, T&PC online editor
To say the Buck 110 changed how outdoorsmen carry knives is like saying Henry Ford was merely forward-thinking. No, the Buck 110 knife defined a moment in history.
Slip a Buck 110 knife into your pocket, and you're carrying a piece of hunting history.
Its explosive popularity hit camps across 1960s North America almost overnight. The days of carrying bulky kitchen or military knives into the field were over. Cutting power was now as easy as slipping the Buck 110‘s canoe-shaped frame into a pocket.
I’m a knife nut anyway, but nothing in my collection rivals the prestige of the Buck 110. It’s a top choice when I’m working at my ranch, hunting in the field or just going about daily business.
There’s a certain comfort in knowing the Buck 110‘s design is older than I am. It’s like having a mentor in my pocket, a reminder of how to do things right the first time. From the silky-smooth lockback release that keeps its 3 3/4-inch clip blade standing at attention to the brass bolsters on the handle, the Buck 110 showcases the beauty of performance-driven simplicity.
Trappers, predator hunters and all other outdoorsmen owe it to themselves to add a Buck 110 to their knife collection. They’ll be part of a hunting story far larger than themselves. They’ll also have a knife that they can count on, a real friend.v

Looks amazing，I might get one of these purely for nostalgia.
I bought mine in 1974. It is my main knife–it was my first deer hunting knife and it has never let me down. I have many other knives now, but I measure all of them by my Buck 110. If I were to have but one knife it would be the 110.
