I bought one of these conversions (looks a lot like yours) off one of the tool trucks somewhere in the early 2000s. I love using this knife and it's so handy in the field.
Neat 110! Not sure about the whole auto thing but cool none the less. I appreciate your videos and thank you for sharing. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
The pin is the button pivoting point, very easy mechanism in fact it would have been fairly easy to include a sliding safety to block the button. It was done by an experienced machinist as evidenced by the perfect fit.
I didn’t know that Buck makes a 110 and 112 automatic knife until today, a friend of mine just bought both man a little pricey for me but they sure are nice
You push down and the other side of the lever has a ball or round shape. Push down and the ball goes up releasing the blade. I’ve seen an Italian knife with the same locking mechanism.
I have a small knife collection, (6) and recently bought the standard Buck 110. It cost around $60, but I couldn't bring myself to carry it because I thought it was too dang pretty. So, I found a pretty good deal on the auto elite, and jumped on it. Way more expensive than the regular 110, but it has satin nickel bolsters, and G-10 scales. So in my mind I don't have to worry so much about it being pretty. I plan on using the crap out of it.
I have two of them but they are hard to open; either the pin locking the blade in place is too long or the depth of the bottom end of the button is isn’t sufficient. I purchased a newer auto direct from Buck and it deploys much easier. But, because it has a coil spring rather than a leaf spring it doesn’t open with the authority of the earlier model conversions. Still awesome though. Donald.
Recently got myself a buck 110, really really wanted the auto but just couldnt afford it. Man that thing is super super cool man!!! Love it and want one that much more now lol. Not perfect but it has character and I bet that was no easy task to do! Happy Holidays to you all my friend, god bless. The one I really wanted btw was the buck 898 impact, really cool looking but goodness way over my budget haha
Walt Reven Jr thanks for watching, I hope you are doing well. This knife is My Christmas gift to myself. I’ll just love carrying this thing . God bless!
@@KnifeDetector Doing good my friend, that is one awesome xmas gift no doubt! I got myself the buck 110 and 112 with micarta handles/s30v steel and a boker auto knife. Thanks for showing, that was a beauty no doubt!
Buck now makes a 110 auto they are pretty nice but I’ve been keeping my eye out for one that’s been actually converted like the one you have I absolutely love what they did with this one , I think I’m gonna sacrifice one mine see what I can come up with , but on another note if this particular one you have is up for sale let me know
I feel the same way. For my taste, the Buck knives are just a little more rugged looking, and I tend to lean more towards natural materials like wood, and traditional knife materials like brass. That being said, I do like the 6OT very much and the 7OT. The 6OT is just perfect for my quickdraw holster. I have a video I made on that early on. Stay safe!
I have one in brand new mint condition with leather holster. You will not find the Buck 110 Autoknife to easy. I have done thorough research on that knife. The one shown in the video is 90% exact. Not to a Gunsmith, to a Jeweler. Making one is not easy, there is a trick to it. At one time the value was $175.00 that is for one made perfectly! Perfectly?? Means almost no sound when it opens. Handle on mine is Teak wood. A very beautiful knife and razor sharp. I really enjoyed this video as not many people have ever seen a Buck 110 Auto-Knife.
Looks exactly like my grandfathers that he sold. Same exact knick in the fire button, same blemishes in the wood, same wear pattern on the bolsters, if I didn't think it was impossible I'd say that was his knife at one point
I own this knife. I have a button style, but I love this knife. But, when it's open, when the blade is out, the blade is loose. A little bit of wiggle from left to right. How do I tighten it up? Thank you for your help.
I’m not sure the hitting the pins with a metal punch will help with a push button. It may be that the tang is worn, or it may be that it was used as a pry bar. If it’s a factory push button, send it back. If it’s a custom job, a good gunsmith can probably fix it for you.
Cool knife... I just came across a 110 & 112 in an antique shop that have brass buttons... and decided to do some research before I made an offer on them... the 110 has a similar oblong brass button like yours, and the 112 has a circular brass button... the handles are black--not sure if they are ebony wood or some sort of plastic composite, haven't handled them yet... and not sure now if they are factory or custom conversions... both look like new with the Buck leather sheaths. I wonder how long the spring will last... best to store all automatic knives in the open position to relieve the stress on the springs... I have a couple German Hubertus autos, and I cover the the sharp blades with a thin cardboard sheath so I don't accidentally cut myself while looking through my knife collection.
@@KnifeDetector After doing some checking online, I think they are both conversions... still great knives, but voids the Buck lifetime warranties... I'll probably add them to my collection after sleeping on it a couple of days... if they are still there !
@@KnifeDetector Only if they accept my offer which is about 17% lower than their asking price... then I will see what their best price is... gotta play the game... HAH !
@@KnifeDetector I found out on The Blade Forums that there are Chinese fake knockoffs that have the Buck markings on the blades, and look pretty much like an aftermarket conversion... Aliexpress (China) was selling these knives at under $40 some years ago... and have custom filing work on the blade and blade spine--not sure if they all do... they are not conversions... the entire knife was China made. I bought the knives before knowing that (offer accepted)... they function, seem well-made, and look great, but they are NOT Buck knives, so I paid too much for them, considering what they probably originally cost the dealers who bought these knives to make a pretty big profit; but there are people out there that think they are actually Buck knives. I'll keep them, and use them, not worrying about keeping them in "brand new" condition... maybe even try putting custom stag scales on them.
HI! Thanks for watching! The knife is 5 inches long closed - pretty big for a pocket knife. I would sheath carry it. The Buck 112 would be its little brother at about 4 inches closed, easier to carry, but also more expensive.
i’m actually dying for a 112 auto..I have lots buck 110s like a dozen and I do carry them some but they’re just so huge and heavy that one 12 is perfect I have one of them but what would really make it great would be that auto conversion
I already have a video out on a quick draw holster that was given to me as a gift. I use an Old Timer 6OT with it, because that model has a lanyard hole.
Buenas tardes, asi igual se tienen que convirtir por alguien. Tipicamente alguien que compone armas lo puede hacer. La compania BUCK hace una navaja casi igual. Es un modelo nuevo que acaba de salir. Se vene en AMAZON aqui esta el link - www.amazon.com/Buck-110-Auto-Elite/dp/B07CWH2PGX
Wow i feel kinda embarrassed i thought the buck 110 auto just came out a few years ago or so its been around sence the 2000 thats crazzy im getting a buck 110 auto clone from wish cant aford the real one or i could but then i wouldnt have enough money to get much else and ther are things i need more then a knife but i do love knifes though really nice one by the way
Would love one of those, but with most things in the UK they are illegal to own . Would have to be standard 110, still not legal carry, but legal to own .
Yeah, UK has very strict standards. In Texas, I can pretty much carry anything in a sheath including a sword, or machete - of course, I haven't found it necessary to walk around with a sword yet :) I have been known to sport a machete though when I'm working outside. Thanks for watching buddy!
l'll let you into a little secret....the coppers are way too busy to check everyone's pocket for what you're carrying. I've had a 110 for ten years, no policeman has ever challenged me or even stopped me. I have never even incurred a parking fine and cause no problems to anyone. I don't flash it around like an idiot in public and I don't walk down the road shouting my mouth off about it. I know the law, but I'll take my chances. Dumb laws do not deserve respect.
@@redneck4528 Thank you. I live amongst people who like to be nice and play fair, it's a national trait. Unfortunately the treacherous bastards at the top have used that against us far too often. I am something of an oddity in that I do have a tendency to kick against unwarranted and unfair "laws". The truth is all I really want is the state to leave us alone.

Hey omg what do I have to do to get this bad ass knife man I no it's probably expensive atleast to me it will be I'm not ashamed to admit it I don't usaly have about 100$-200$ to just spend on a knife even if it's not just any knife it's obviously an amazing knife but I will try to get it one day it's just been made even harder for me cus I'm on SSI and long story short shit happened and now my paye I guEs is gona have to be bridge builders meaning il only get like 50$ a month so I don't no how the hell il get this ever cus it's hard for me to just put all my money up and not get anythang but I guEs il have to if I want this I'm trying to start a collection I'm not sure if I just want an automatic knife collection maybe a knife collection period like all kinds of difrent knifes
Buck currently makes an auto knife with a push button similar to this one. This one is a custom job that was probably done by a gunsmith some time in the 90s, when customizing 110s became popular. People have said that these custom jobs are better than the Buck version.
These are cool "collectors knives". If you want one to carry and for an EDC & literally beat the hell out off just get the buck 110 auto from them if any issues happen they will fix it or just send you a new knife. Any mods you do void the warranty and they will not take the knife back. The inner parts fail eventually and buck wont help you.
Probably better then a factory auto. I bought the 110 auto elite with s30v g10 scales I sent it back to buck for what I though was excessive blade play they sent me another knife and the one I have now is worse then the one I sent in...
Thanks for watching! I have heard this before form other viewers about sending in knives for repair. Some companies today would rather just send you a new one, then fix the old one, I guess it's just more cost effective for them. Whomever did the conversion on my knife, knew what they were doing. I think it's a keeper... Happy Holidays!
I remember when Blade HQ used to sell these. They even had a left handed version for people like me.
I bought one of these conversions (looks a lot like yours) off one of the tool trucks somewhere in the early 2000s. I love using this knife and it's so handy in the field.
