My only complaint about the 110 seems to be solved by this. (Goes to knifecenter website and puts it in the cart.)
I just refrained from commenting in a thread in which the original poster writes he prefers the appearance of S&W's new revolver frames that cover up more of the hammer. I'm tempted to make the same comment here but instead I'll be polite.
Except for thick stag handled ones, prior to 110s nearly all moderate and higher priced large single blade folders were too thin to be comfortable in the hand. In addition to locks and hard steel that held an edge longer than most knives the 110's thickness made it a better tool. 110s should be a tool that belongs in a belt pouch not a flicky dicky weapon.
Now that you know the correct view of Buck's new 110 I'll go perk myself a fresh pot of coffee in my glass stove top coffee pot.

Nice knife. Unfortunately it's 1/4" too long for West Virginia concealed carry.
I wonder if there's a 112 slim?

Yes, there is a 112 version. My choice would be a 112 Slim in 154CM steel, but I have way too many knives as it is.

There is a knife dealer that has a sign that reads. You never can have too many knifes but you can have too many wifes lol. The light knife looks like will be on my list 110 & 112

Well I do have a birthday coming up soon....
Lacking even one single Stockman, Whittler or Peanut you'd be instantly granted public assistance on an emergency claim. Since you recently posted your jigged bone Case knives are pretty a 6375 4 1/4" Stockman would be a good choice to help ease the pain of your knife shortage.
I'll be getting both the 110 and the 112 when my knife shop gets them. Like most of my others, they won't get used, but that's not their fault. The fixed blade version of the 110 (101?) is my go to knife when I clean a hog. LOVE THAT KNIFE !!

I like Buck 110.it's a fine knife.
I thought Buck always made a plastic handled 110. First I'd cut that clip off. I carry my knives IN my pocket. Not hanging out to be grabbed/noticed or snagged out and lost.

I believe the original Bucklite plastic handled models were made for Buck by Camillus Cutlery, which went bankrupt around 2007. The current light weight models are produced by Buck in Idaho and come with superior blade steels.
