Comparing the Buck 110, 501 & 503 folding knives 

One of these days I'll add a 500, 501, 503 and 055 to the collection. At present the 110's are attracting more of my dollars. So many variations... Loving the S30V variants.

I ordered the 55 and 501 to compare and see which one I want to give my dad as a gift.. the 55 is just a tad small, but we will see what feels better when both are in my hands. the 55 was a bit more and doesn't come with a leather holster, also the pins are different then the 501. On quality alone,is the 55 design and build better? I also wanted to get his initials engraved, but not sure where on the knife to do that and who could do that.. too bad buck doesn't sell a model with metal inlay on the handle to get engraved or something..

I can't decide between getting a Squire or a Prince. Decisions, decisions...

i own a squire and i agree the size is great. it’s not too small in the hand but easily carried day-to-day

Boy he can't get off that 110

Thanks for this video. I often wondered what the size of the 501 was.

Great summary! Was looking for this comparison between the 501 and 503 so I appreciate the level of detail.

Great video! The 501 looks like a very good size for every day usage. The nickel and rosewood is a great combo. Thanks for taking the time to share

I’m liking that 503!!?! Cool knives man

Great video. Thank you for sharing. Subed.

Can't you put those knifes down for a second to get a side-by-side comparison.

The Buck 110 and 112 are now very customizable straight from the company. They'll give you a choice of blade steels.....blade shape (drop point or clip).....polished or satin.....premium handle materials......finger grooves......steel or brass bolsters. I just wish they'd offer the addition of pocket clips, though these knives are heavy enough to jerk your pants down LOL.

Hi , for me the 501 is the perfect size for a pocket knife , thx for your video !

Good video mate! 👌🏻

You should review the 110 vs the 112 vs the 55.

In the early/middle 80's, there became a world-wide BAN on Rosewood ( a relative of Ebony). However, because Piano/Guitar makers had previously established plantations for a source, Ebony (used for the black keys on a piano, and guitars because of the sound. Oh, and sailboats) had plenty of supply. Rosewood, on the other hand, suffered a world wide ban, because at the time, there was really only one source. Madagascar. And it was rare even there! Soon enough, slave labor plantations for Rosewood, which was HIGHLY valued as a furniture wood, were established in south america, but those too, got bad press. For a while, Rosewood was only available from illegal Madagascarian poachers! One good log could set you up for life! Meanwhile, the rest of the world leaned how to save their sawdust and use various Resin recipes to make Gun grips, knife scales and all sorts of Rosewood Sawdust formulations. Decades later - The Indians (the ones with dots on their heads) announced that THEY had grown a somewhat different species (not actual Madagascarian Rosewood, but close enough for the girls we go out with) and it looked and felt just like the REAL stuff! Now you know why "Rosewood" was (while not common) was a 'thing' prior to the 1980s, virtually disappeared until just about 10 or so years ago... Apparently trees take forever to actually grow to a useful size...

Hi you may answer this in this video, my question is I have a 501 with a C at the end. I am assuming this denotes the year. Any help wood be great. Plus like you video, as i am knew to the channel! Wish you all the best sir!
