Adam, you posted in exactly the right place. Most people would know what a Buck 110 looks like but certainly a picture that shows condition might be good too. Let's see what the value is.

What kind of handle does it have?

The handle is what makes a difference in value in the 110. Everything else on them is the same from one to another.

Adam, if you sell it what kind of knife are you looking to upgrade to. There are so many nice choices now days.

You know Adam I don't know if its practical but maybe you could update the knife with new handles and go from there.

 The 110 is one of the best knife values around new or used.  The only ones with any increased market price are the old ones in mint , unused with the wood handles that are believed more desirable.    I think the leather sheathes are worth 9.00 or so .Hang onto that 110 and since it is not some museum piece use it like normal people (who are not collectors ). there have been times when the 110 was about my only knife and it did everything  I needed done.

 Steve is right about that. They look great with different handles (scales?) This old Buck came this way. But how hard could it be? i would screw it up, but i bet a dozen people here could help you through it.

Adam i don't mean to beat this to death , but with the new models of Buck vantage and others  I predicted they might end the 110 model. It has been the flag ship forever and when someone says BuckKnife, that is what comes to mind. I never thought they would end E-Type Jags, Pontiacs, Oldsmobiles, and Plymouths.  If the 110 is no longer made, everybody that ever had one and let it slip away will die if they don't get one again. Prices will skyrocket and none of mine will be for sale. Till the bottom  falls out of course. lol

Actually, if you haven't sharpened the blade you might get $25 for it but they are selling new for $40-50 range. The nice thing is that they are still USA made and not everyone and their brother's store is carrying them much anymore.

I had one rehandled by Ralph Pemberton of Bash Dani and a couple of old Schrades and now they're all beauties!
