    I got a hearty laugh out of this. I've only recently "gotten into" knives (to me they're nice but fairly mundane tools that just exist to do a job and aren't something I'm emotionally invested in), and I've been finding without exception that the guys who reject the Buck 110 (or 112, or 55, or any "grandpa" knife for that matter as they call all my knives) by declaring a "requirement" to be able to open said knife with one hand are not remotely interested in knives as tools. Heck, they likely don't even use it. They don't want a tool, they don't want something to use for actual working, they want a toy they can fidget with and get compliments from other guys on the job site with. I don't know why that bugs me so much, but it does. Knives are tools, not toys. I had a new coworker a few months ago pull out his "pocket knife" to open some plastic wrap. It was a folder, but its blade was bigger than my freaking Ka Bar at home. In a city with an under 3" limit. Like what the hell, guys? If it was good enough for your grandpa (who I promise had better taste than you), it's good enough for you. Especially for cutting plastic...
    Anyway great speed there, safe deployment and stowing, 10/10.

      Fantastic, well-thought-out comment. Thank you. Totally agree with your tool analogy.
      I simply state that the 110 has been around since 1964, virtually unchanged. Can't say that for any other popular folding knife. And...is the most copied design.

    Glad to see you performed this feat w/o a pocket clip or drilling a hole in the blade.

    That is very good. I don't want to give goofy suggestions, just saying that after carrying my 110 for 37 years, my preferences now are to carry it in a leather crossdraw sheath on my belt in the 7 o'clock position, basically scout style. That's not a suggestion, just my preference.

    • @knifetimestory

      Hey, productive suggestions are always welcome. I've seen them for sale, just never pulled the trigger. Maybe I'll surf around tonight rather than watching a stupid ball drop and get myself a New Years treat!! Thanks for the idea.

    Great video! "Two handed" is the most secure method...I've used the add-on thumb studs for the 110, but I've come close to slicing my thumb a few times even though it was a "no stress" situation. If I need a "tactical" knife, I'll go with a Spyderco - it's not the 70s anymore (though the music was better back then!)
    I also owe you a mea culpa....I'm now sheathing the 110 in your preferred way after playing around with it for a bit....I can still flick the handle if I need to open it with one hand. The only downside is that I have to change my other knives over to tip up carry (except for the liner locks).

    I timed you at a little over 2 seconds. That is twice as fast as I can get my 110 out and open with one hand and a thumbstud. I could probably practice and cut a second off but why? Your method works.

    • @knifetimestory
      @knifetimestory  10 месяцев назад +1

      Thank you for the feedback. To be honest, I was not even trying for speed. Safety first is my motto. It is not only rather fast, but secure as the knife never needs to be spun or turned or twisted so grip is never compromised.

    Does your Buck 110 have marks on the back spacer from the blade occasionally hitting it? I’ve noticed this on some of mine. It’s probably just the design of the knife

    • @knifetimestory
      @knifetimestory  7 месяцев назад +1

      Not sure what you mean. Are you talking about inside the knife with the blade bonking (yep, the only word I could come up with) the lock bar when you close it? Does it leave a little ding or flat spot on your blade?

    • @Jeff-fv8qk
      @Jeff-fv8qk 7 месяцев назад

      @@knifetimestory Yes Sir! Inside the knife the blade sometimes leaves a small mark on the steel spacer which leaves about a quarter of an inch from the end of the blade a small mark. I guess it’s called “over traveling”. I think it’s just normal for this particular design.

    • @knifetimestory
      @knifetimestory  7 месяцев назад +1

      Nope. That should not happen. The first time it happened to me I took a Dremel round saw and ground away spacer. That was a complete disaster. The issue is that the kick, the little flat spot on your blade next to the logo, is not making contact with the lock bar in the inside soon enough to prevent the edge dinging. My only suggestion is to return it. Or, if you have bonded with it, then don't let the blade slam home. Gently close it.

    • @knifetimestory
      @knifetimestory  10 месяцев назад +1

      Yes. That is the reason for the video. The physical gymnastics your hand has to perform in order to get it into position for one hand snap is time-consuming and adds to the potential of dropping the knife, which leads to it being useless. So, I cordially invite anyone to show me faster results. Don't think I'm going to see any. Lots of talkers out there, but very few doers.
      Happy New Year. I hope you have a safe and healthy 2024 my friend!
