Doc D., love that weapons and clothes quote in your sig...

:cool:...Seems like the thing to do in today's world gooser...Real sad too...but sometimes necessary...That's a quote from "Time Enough for Love" by R.A. Heinlein...:(
 
Not sure if the 2008 and 2009 are right, BCCI sheet has them swapped, can anyone confirm a 2008 knife?

:cool:...All them arrows pointin' every which a way between 2007 and 2010 is sure to cornfuse a few o' dem Weasels down da road...:eek::eek::p
 
Apparently lots of peeps are having customs shipped on 02JUN08. Someone will confirm by then, if not sooner.

Maybe, none of my Custom Shop 110's have a date code on the tang, even the ones I ordered in the last 2-3 years.

:confused:
 
:cool:...I wonder if that's just being seen on the "Dam" customs...My BG-42 Nicky Sam from last year ain't got no year stamp...:confused::confused:
 
Just checked them again, none of mine 420HC or BG-42 have a date code.

All 4 were ordered in the last 3 years.
 
Only my Dam customs have a date tang stamp too.
My other half dozen or so customs are BG-42 with no date stamps.
A lot of recent custom orders are Dams...so, I hope they have the 2008 stamp as well.
Stay tuned...
 
Just looked at my 110AG, made in April 2008. The arrow is pointing up - the opposite of the 2007 stamp.

My newer finger groove 110 on which I just got the blade replaced was replaced with a vertical arrow. The finger groove 110 I just got on ebay has two dots. My youngest was born in 80 so that pleases me. I'll give him the knife, one of these days. Thanks for the info.

Thanks for this thread guys.:thumbup: I could never find the newer date stamp codes. Just to confirm again, my new 297 has an "arrow up" stamp (2008).
