MAXED OUT, CUSTOM BUCK 110, 🔪and the collection 

My uncle bought a buck 110 in the 70's and lost it soon after. He went out and bought a second and as luck would have it he found the first, so he had 2. A few years ago he told me he was keeping the second one he bought in storage and had barely used it. He asked if I wanted it and I proudly accepted. I'm 28 and the knife he gave me almost twice my age. I'll keep it forever. Still good as new.

Very Nice Buck 110 Collection! My first knife, a Buck 110. I bought it when I was a kid in the Marines (1974) aboard the USS Kennedy deployed to the Mediterranean with the 6th Fleet. I still have that great 110 & sheath...sent it to Buck for cleaning, sharpening & polishing. Looks as good as it did 50 yrs, ago!!

Great looking Custom!! I love the 110 and that is a nice one!! Great collection of 110s!

Very nice collection of Buck knives

👍👍👍👍🔪🗡🔪🗡🔪🗡📌PLEASE GIVE IT A 👍 I don't beg, just ask every so often. ''KNIFE CHAT'' PLAYLIST....BUCK, COLD STEEL, WICKED EDGE SHARPENING: ru-vid.com?list...

I built almost the same knife, but i got the spear point with the S30v . Just a gorgeous piece of art .

Great video brother! God bless America! 🇺🇸

I believe the “missing” rivet is actually the lock bar pivot pin which they appear to capture on the custom knives. Methinks.

My thoughts exactly!!! My 110 collection consists of 6 or 7 standard, a couple of standard S30, 3 DLT exclusive 20CV drop points, 2 full customs like yours, 3 polymer (1 with pocket clip other 2 without) 2 pro’s and 3 Sports with pocket clip, aluminum and Micarta. I make it a point to keep buying them and I also have a lot of Case knives - from my home state of PA and finally, 16 Chris Reeve another American company run by wonderful people! Love it brother!!!

I agree, nickel silver is way better! Beautiful knife!

That is a gorgeous piece right there. I wish they offered S45VN or 20CV as steel options for the custom shop. 99% of what you see on ebay are chinese or pakistani clones. The only way to guarantee you’re getting a genuine custom Buck is to buy it straight from Buck

So for quick visual identification, buck puts 3 pins in their custom shops, there IS a 4th pin, but it’s hidden.

I loved the collection, I own a couple of 110's myself, and a 560 as well. My favorite is the Buck 110 the Lochsa, they have a pocket clip and thumb studs. ( I kind of like those) they have the nickel silver bolsters ( only the top ones) and a nice Buck emblem in black g10 handles. they made 500 of those at they're 50th anniversary. I carry that one almost daily., it's really the only pocket knife you ever need.( Loved the Trump knife by the way.)

So I was working for Thrift Town my first job I was 16 or 17 in Fort Worth I was picking up donations and this chair I unloaded from the truck OUT DROPS MY FIRST BUCK 110 lol 😆 I'm 62 and I still have that knife it's probably a 1970'ish because it just says Buck. My son used it as a hammer when I wasn't looking and I came unglued on him that was probably 20+ years ago.

I’ve read that a number of buyers got very low quality custom Bucks: gaps between scale/bolster, uneven grinds, etc etc. I really want a nickel & drop point, but I’m hesitant to spend a lot of $$$ on something that appears be be hit and miss. Yours looks awesome.

Never seen a Buck 560 before very cool man🍻🇺🇲

Well now I want to see all your buck knives

Which Buck do you like the best out of all the Bucks made? Which blade has the very best metal? Cool video thumbs up.

beautiful Buck, I wish we could order a custom one to be shipped to Europe too

Wow super nice Capt Dave. We going to get you a pair of white gloves for that Buck. Would you say the edge on something from the custom shop is a little more refined than a regular production Buck and have you considered a custom made drop point ?

👍🏻👍🏻

You have good style & taste. Your favorite color is your favorite color. However, shouldn't MAGA be red? To match the cap?

How can I get one silver like that??

Nice 👍

How much?

you own a buck 119 ?

Omg your hands are hairy old and wrinkled. Time for some retirement 🥳

Still want a trump buck? 🙄

Will you use them or put tnem in the drawer

The explanation for the "missing" pin on the scales is for the following reason ... That pin is the pivot pin for the lockback (spring) bar. The lockback bar is the steel bar that engages the notch in the blade tang to "lock" the blade in the open position, and to open the blade when the blade is in the closed position ( using the lock release thumb at the mid position on the top of the handle). So this pin gets a LOT of movement and pressure when overcoming the spring tension holding that lockbar in position. One of the problems encountered in many lockback knives in the past was that when using exotic materials for the handle scales, the movement and pressure exerted on this pin would transfer to the handle scales. If the scales were made of a material that could withstand those pressures (wood, rubber, micarta, etc.) then no problem. But if the scale material was a bit fragile, then the pressure and constant pivoting on this pin would cause the materials to crack at this point where the scale material is at its thinnest by the edge of the handle. Many old slipjoints and lockbacks that used mother of pearl, stag, or precious minerals for the scales, can be found today with CRACKS in that area of the lockbar pivot pin (much the same with slipjoints) ...it is a design flaw when using material that are hard & fragile for scale material. SO...when custom shops are making knives such as this Buck 110 and using stag or horn or mother if pearl, etc. they don't extend the pivot pin all the way through the scales, thereby eliminating the possibility of cracks forming in the scales down the road. The pin is still there, but now hidden under the scales. I hope this long and drawn out explanation will cover your concern over the "missing" pin on your knife.

👍🏻👍🏻

The expensive ones you see in eBay are not from the Buck Custom Shop. They are customized by private individuals. Some people get super creative and artistic with them such as Ghostown Custom Knives

Just got my custom 110 I think I might be in love with a knife

What a beautiful knife. I have the original Buck 110 and it is fantastic. I wish I could afford to order a custom just like that one. I only buy American knives. MAGA

Beautiful. The Elk on my custom isn't as pretty. It is great that Buck offers custom versions of some of their knives.

I own and carry a stock 110 with finger grooves. I just polished and honed it.

wow what an amazing collection.

Beautiful knife, I’ll need to get one. Not because they are made by Christian Americans, but because it’s extremely e beautiful and well-made. Built for life.

Do the rivets make it stronger?

O ThK TY 4 ur fine work ! Buck is Outstanding always. Pls help if U can over my many yrs as GI 67-79 aquired a few primo items. Going to let them go to help 4 of my 7 gkids in ROTC!

TY sorry abt typo's gotta messed up hand thumb & lil finger on ly work PT now due to injuries TY again. GreaT video

So are you going to carry and use it, or just a safe queen? Buck knives are built to be used. As for using flippers, I have only one functioning hand and require a knife that is handicap friendly. There are plenty of American knife makers that make quality knives. I do agree with you on the foreign crap out there. I don't buy them because I don't support communism. I have a custom Buck Ranger that I love, carried and used. I miss not being able to use it. Thinking of customizing a quality thumb stud. Nothing cheesy looking though.

Love Buck Knives!! Excellent reveal, Sir you have treasures that are warenteed for life!! Enjoy!!! USA BUCK FAMILY that loves God! ❤️ 🙏

4got 2 add as a semi poor GI sav ed up 4 while & got my 1st Buck 110 N mid 70's! Base exchange hadda long wait list 4 them but finally my number was called. REmember the thrill of snhowing it off etc. Was Fine piece of Kit & My oldest g/son now has it & carries it alot . ;)

Still love my 110, it's a classic. That's one great looking custom Buck!

Beautiful blade. That would be nice if they offered a brushed stainless steel bolster option for strength and tarnish resistant. I have been collecting the 3 dot 1980-81 because that was the last year for 440C and has the thicker squared off bolsters. Also scored a 1982 with finger grooves and sent it in to Buck to have a drop point 420HC blade replace the 425M clip point for only $10. It came back looking like brand new from 1982! But if they ever offered a stainless steel bolster option I would have one made. I would love to score a 560 and 1980-81 111 some day. Damn that Trump one is cool as well!

Wow that elk horn and the nickel silver is the best buck 110 I've seen.

Nice knife

Great knives! Buck is also my favorite company… simply for what they stand for!

That’s a real beaut...Dave.

Beautiful knife! I also made a custom buck 110 when my son was born.

My first real knife was a Buck 110, a factory stock model. Got it when I was 14. My mother bought it for me. Still have it, I'm actually wearing it on my belt now.

You might get banned from RU-vid for the MAGA knife Lol.

That is a beauty !!!!! That would be my choice.

14:38 totally epic fart
