The directions are sooooo bad. Thanks for linking the video you used.

I have that exact knife! I found it at Ossian Hardware in Ossian, Indiana. The covers are Winterbottom jigged brick red bone, and it has fluted bolsters and nickel silver pins and liners. This Case Select series was produced in 2013. The series consisted of eight different patterns and 250 of each were produced. It is a VERY special knife and we're lucky to have them! This style of jigging was developed by Samuel Winterbottom and was also used by Queen and Schatt & Morgan.

You can't really look at the logos on the leather sheaths..... They came out with a dozen different ones in the last 30 years.

California born and raised.

Love the up close view of it, nice wood! Great design.

FOR EDC? 112, & then even a lite version.

Nice

Thanks for sharing, I just ordered my Buck 112 Ranger and hope to have it just after Christmas. I was looking for the 50th Anniversary Buck 112 Ranger but decided to purchase a new one instead.

Cool

Amazing thanks for this nice review! I will be getting it this coming Christmas 🎄

when you own both it's hard to not want to grab the 110. If you're a man it just feels perfect in hand if a bit heavy, but I prefer heavy because you tend to wield knives with heavy handles a lot safer. All the new thin handled knives suck in the ergo department. as for the finger grooves I own a buck with/without and honestly.... it's just so comfortable without grooves the grooves are almost distracting in hand. I do prefer 110 > 112 the 112's blade just feels short when you own both

Not actual carbon fiber though…

Very Informative and Useful video. I Have 3 Leatherman Surge MultiTools & use them in various Camping,Tool Making, Special Ops, Fishing & Military Activities.😊

That's a nice one! My first mini is on the way

I want to say that I'm a buck Fanboy but my age it would be Fanoldman. I have both but for some reason I like the small 112 more.

Gorgeous knife, do you mind if I ask what case dealer sells that? I would like to get one.

Id watch the opening thunder crack on repeat. Thats the best part lolol

The Fieldmaster is a great tool.

Mine comes in on Saturday👌

I am new to Case. I ordered my first traditional three days ago. What exactly is pocket worn. Is it distressed or polished up more? Nice looking mini trapper btw. What did you trade for it?

I subbed. I got my wife a Victorinox Huntsman. The wine corkscrew for when we go to wineries.

2:43 you lost me. BTW, the offshore Buck knives HAVE THE SAME FOREVER WARRANTY AS THE KNIVES MADE IN IDAHO. Buck stands behind the warranty on the offshore knives, as well. Also, unlike Case and other US Manufacturers (GEC, Bear & Son, Schatt & Morgan, Colonial, etal) you DO NOT have to be the original owner with proof of purchase for the warrantee/guarantee to be valid. Rough Rider (and SMKW's other brands; Marbles, Queen, Queen City, Novelty Knife, Old Forge, etc.) have a Lifetime Warranty/Guarantee, as well. Like Buck, SMKW does not care if you are the original owner, or if you found the knife out in the woods (or on the bottom of a pond/lake/crick/stream/river) decades after the knife was lost. SMKW sands behind the warranty/guarantee, as well. I had a old, no MR number Marbles MR409 US Hawkbill, for roughly 9 or 10 ten years. I paid $5.99 for it plus free dealer shipping on Amazon. The knife was in a wood cigar boz, blade closed, when I had a stroke. 2.5 years after the stroke, I got the cigar box of knives. The Marbles Hawkbill suffered a busted backspring sometime during the years it was in that cigar box. I contacted SMKW in an email, included a picture of the knife and broken spring. They sent me a replacement, no charge for postage. They did not want the old knife sent in. A year or two later, I bought a Marbles MR275 DEMO Knife with a no MR Number Marbles SPORK. The MR278 is a 4 blade 2 spring knife. When I received that knife and SPORK set, they were in a hang-pack. The knife had all four blades partly opened. As you might have guessed, that is an EXCELLENT way to break a backspring on a Demo/Scout/Engineers knife. Sure enough, the knife had a broken spring BEFORE I took it out of the hang pack. Another email to SMKW telling them what happened with a picture of the broken spring, they sent a replacement, again at no charge, including a new SPORK, even though I told them there was nothing wrong with the SPORK, and I would be overjoyed if they jus replaced the MR278, without a SPORK or other accessory. Again, they did not want the broken knife sent in. The MR278 is $6.99 plus shipping. (some Amazon dealers offer it with free shipping) With the SPORK, it was $9.99(?). If something happens to my CASE or GEC knives, because I a NOT the original owner, and do not have proof of purchase - they were gifted to me, they are NOT under Warranty. Obviously, the Case and GEC's cost a heck of a lot more than my Marbles, Rough Rider/Ryder, and BUCK, both Idaho made and offshore. From my experience, the quality of the Rough Rider/Ryder, Marbles, and COLT knives I fave are as good as or better than Case and my Buck 301s. Honestly, the quality is on a par with my vintage pre-2004 Imperial-Schrade Old Timer and Ulster, the four GEC I have, and the Sheffield, England and Solingen, Germany pen knives I have. Offshore knives contracted by whoever, are made to the quality specified in the contract. It does not matter what the country they are contracted in is. That fact remains. The Asian, Indian, Japanese, Pakistan, or wherever manufacturers can make high quality knives - or knife shaped objects, that if you have enough of them in a burlap or canvas bag might make a useable anchor for a canoe or float tube. It depends on the quality the company contracting for the knives wants. Also, a common objection to knives made in China is the person does not want to support that government. This isn't the 1950s. The Chinese government does NOT own all the manufacturing in that country - or even a large percentage of the manufacturing, any more than the USA, Canadian, Russian, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Pakistan, Indian, or Korean, and Vietnam governments do. Truth: If you buy a knife or anything else made offshore or an "American"company, you re still supporting that American company. Those who say "I'll NEVER buy anything made in China ..." are delusional. Unless they drive a car no newer than 1978, don't have a computer, cellphone/smart phone, a TV or radio made after 1985, take one of numerous prescription AND OVER THE COUNTER medications (Aspirin, for one!) they have something made in China. Al the electronic controls in cars made since 1979, made in China. As a matter of fact, the US has not manufactured a single transistor since roughly 2000. Silicon Valley DESIGNS electronic components now. They no longer manufacture them. Apple/Mac are MADE in China, Assembled in Mexico. The electrical harnesses for domestic cars are made in Mexico. The leather for the upholstery comes from Argentina, and the upholstery itself are made there, as well. Engines can come from several offshore sources, both European and Asian. Ford/GM/Chrysler have not been 100% Made in USA for going on two generations. If you buy a knife or whatever made in China or any other country, the only time your money goes to the government is when the company pays their taxes. Just like the only time the money you spent for that new Ford/GM/Chrysler goes to the US government is when they (a) pay their taxes and (b) if they make a payment on one or more of the government bail-out loans they received. My RR198 is due to arrive today. I have no doubt it will be as good as my other Rough Rider/Ryder, Marbles, COLT, Ulster, BTI Schrade, and one GEC 14 Barlow I am planning on pairing the RR198 with my RR139 large Sleeve Board Smooth White Bone Sunfish.

I just bought 2. Thank's for showing it to me 🙂

No thanks, I'll put my own pocket wear on my knives and it won't even cost me extra.

You will be amazed at how useful the saw blade is. You can't go wrong with a Victorinox knife. I never leave the house without one. I have had one for over 45 years and it still works like new. The Fieldmaster seems to me to be the best model they have with all the right tools. The hook is good for pulling cord.

I found one lying in the shoulder of a busy street couple weeks ago. Standard model, think it's 420HC, little worn. Looks like a great knife for bird&trout.

It will rust outside

I appreciate your comments but in my limited experience I've had as many issues with Case knife quality as I've had with Rough Ryder knives. The patterns that I've kept are fine knives from both sources.

Timeless, well made, beautiful knives, both!

I think that the more aggressive protruding bolster on the 112 is an extra safety design to prevent the index finger from accidentally moving forward so you could suffer a cut, since the handle of that knife, being smaller, is not fully covered by your hand. In the 110 this does not happen, because the handle is larger, the hand covers it completely and there is not so much risk that the index finger could end up "caressing" the blade. I have several units of the 110 and indeed it seems to me an extraordinarily solid knife.

I think a sheath for folding knives defeats the purpose. Nice for storage, though. The smaller one would be better for EDC. The 110 was originally designed to be an alternative to a fixed blade hunting knife.

I bought this knife. It's so nice I can't bring myself to use it!

mine is BUCK Cherrywood series 102 Woodsman Fixed Blade Knife, 4", LOVE it. It is the genuine BUCK, Made in USA. "One of" my EDC (every day carry) beauty. LOVE this hard-to-find cherry-red color.

Hey thanks for making this, I think I'll buy one.

Wow

How do u set the time I have one just like it

Looks like barn wood jigging to me.

Congratulations on the beautiful knife brother and yes enjoy the video much! A man cannot go wrong with an American Buck knife on his hip! And you are very correct my friend because for many a year I've carried my buck 102 it's awesome anyway in every way you look at it number one it's American made it's the perfect size and great for Field and stream or kitchen use just if you carrying it everyday a quick wash and sanitize pass it through the sharpening stones for a few wiped clean after that you can do all your kitchen prep or if you out camping in the back country it works great Field and stream bringing meat to the table and preppin food out in the field!

The Pioneer is my EDC knife. If I could only have one knife it would be a pioneer.

Thanks! Power off, and I have one of these!

i have 1knife buck custom u.s.a serial #010 of 500

Do u know if that thing can run on 70% alcohol?

You talked me into it. I'm getting one

where did you got it from?

if i made this knife and tried to sell it the very first thing someone would complain about is the finish on the blade. not just buck, many other companies pass off quality as crappy as this when it wouldnt take much to get rid of the grind marks. looks like crap to me. i see lots of knives with these lines that ruin the appearance of quality. nice wood used on the handle.

The surge is awesome tool in my opinion

I install my file the same way to protect the diamond stone side. You can buy mutliple style Bosche Tshank blades that work with the Surge. I own alot of leatherman tools and the Surge is the best.

Don't be fooled. I've taken apart a few mule deer with this one.

Nice.

Great deal for $66!
