You guys make want some Buck knives again! LOL!

Buck 110 Buckcote fro 1997

Gary, Very nice Buck, I really like that.

Very nice 110!

I haven't kept up with Buck knives for years (I used  to collect them MANY years ago), but I came across this fixed blade based on the 112. I think it's very cool!

Just bought a script Buck 703 Bronco. Very nice.

Great Bucks all - Steve that is a neat chart with good info. thanks.

Thanks Steve, Yep it"s pre 86 I think. I'll post a pick sometime. Also enjoyed the Buck knives chart, amazing stuff!

Hello Bucklovers!

I just recently became a member and it was when I was looking for a custom Ranger I thumbled over this side.  A while ago I bought my first Ranger after a lot of reading and comparing. It's a standard 112, the only one you can find here in Sweden:'(. But I'm allready in love with it! In my opinion its the perfekt folder. The look, the weightand the overall quality! I, m now looking  for a custom. I would like one with nickelsilver bolsters, stagplates and a customblade. I hoped to be able to order one at the customshop but it seems like they dont take any orders. Does anyone know how it works or is there any other way to get my perfect knife? Take care out there!

Howdy, Claes!

My very first Buck knife was the Ranger 112 And, like you, I also fell in love with the size and shape of it. It would be several years before I finally purchased the iconic 110. Then I became obsessed with it, as well!

As far as I know there were a limited number of 112's that Buck made back in 2006 for the BCCI (Buck Collectors Club International) that were almost exactly as you described as your dream knife. If I recall there were 175 made?

They were really sweet, too! Sambar stag with finger grooves - Nickel silver bolsters and pins - S30V "drop point" blade!<----WOW!

I have only seen pictures of these custom Collectors Club knives. I have never actually held one in my hand. But I know they are out there. Of course, if you find one, you can expect to pay a pretty hefty price for it since Buck claimed that they would not be making anymore custom 112's.

That's about all I know. Good luck in your quest to find the ultimate knife!

Cheers!

Hi Claes!

Congratulations on your new 112 Ranger, it's a great knife.

You're right, the "Custom Shop" at Buck's website doesn't give the option of customizing a 112.  Only the 110 Hunter, the Alpha Hunter (fixed blade), and the 500 series... 501, 503, 505

Maybe one of the 500's would suit you.  They're lockbacks like the 112.  You can customize with stag scales and upgrade the steel to S30V.

Here's a link, although I think you already have it:

Hmmmm, I wonder if they will ship a custom to Sweden, you might want to contact them first.

Mike

you must try ebay

Claes, unfortunately Buck doesn't offer the 112 Folding Ranger as a choice in their online Custom Shop. I wish they had the 55 model as an option (half size of the 110). A must buy is their DVD video. It's$20, but for members it is only $8. USA Dollars. Not sure if it is region free or USA/Canada only.

Ok! Sounds like a perfect christmasmovie;-)!

About 'the perfect knife' I'll keep looking on ebay and other sites. The most important features for me are the nickel silver bolsters and staghandles. I can go with the 420 Hc. IIt's also a nice blade and as someone said-Image is everything:-D

Of course! When you cant find one yourself, maybe Santa has one in his sack:-D!

Got a Buck 301 Stockman**, SMKW 110 50th Anniversary, and a 55.

BuckKnives.com now has available their 110 Folding Hunter 50th Anniversary Knives. Two versions; Regular Handle and Finger Grooved Handle.

I got the Hoodlum from my wife for Christmas. Nice knife!! I Love it. It adds very nicely to my Buck knives collection. I am just in the process of taking pictures of some of the interesting ones in my collection and will post them soon.

Currently using the Buck Vantage Pro.  Amazing value for money on these production folders.  Did a short review on my blog here.  Enjoy!

I just got this single blade Buckkote model #180

Nice one Paul

2015 Debut: 'Red Steel' Compadre Series Coming From Buck Knives

Three implements from Buck Knives will debut at the Outdoor Retailer trade show this week, including a knife, a hatchet, and a “chopping froe.” They will go on sale in 2015.

Each is made in the USA. The tools are all treated with a red powdercoat finish for rust and corrosion resistance.

Compadre camp knife

The 104 Camp Knife has full-tang construction and a 5160 steel blade that’s 9.5 inches long. Its handle is made of walnut. It will cost $80.

A hatchet, the 106 Compadre model, has a 5160 steel head and a walnut-dymondwood handle. It comes with a leather sheath and weighs about 24 ounces. MSRP when available will be $120.

Compadre Hatchet

Finally, the 108 Compadre Chopping Froe is, Buck cites, a multi-purpose wood working tool. Its 9.5-inch steel blade was built for clearing brush and heavy wood chopping.

Chopping Froe

But the machete-like tool, which measures almost 17 inches long, weighs less than 2 pounds. It will cost $160 when Buck ships to consumers and stores in early 2015. —Stephen Regenold

I'm a bit interested in that hatchet. Hope it chops well.

OK, that is a beautiful Buck!

Awesome looking knife Jan

Bantam is a good knife!

That's a sharp looking collection of Buck's you've got there, Dave!

Do my eyes deceive me or do I spy an automatic third from the left?

Ron cooper, that is *not* an automatic (although I wish I had one in my collection) that is a Buck 110 Master series, what looks like a push button is actually the Master Series badge

Buck 120 General

Thanks, David, for your response. When I saw that picture I thought it looked like a left handed automatic. Now I know what it really is.

Cheers, mate!

Ron, you're more than welcome! I'm here to help.
