Thanks! It's Buck's DymaLux Cherrywood, which is a resin-impregnated Birch. Available in the Custom Shop.That 119 is stunning. What kind of wood is that?
I'm pretty sure I bought it in 1975, so it turns 50 this year. I don't polish the bolsters. I just wipe them down with one my wife's plastic dish scrubber thingies from time to time.I like itHow old is the older 110? How often do you have to polish up the brass bolsters?
Excellent. Which steel does it have? One of these days when I’m patient enough to wait , I’m gonna order a custom 119. In the meantime , I just ordered a 119 with the polished red micarta handle and standard 420HC blade.Thanks! It's Buck's DymaLux Cherrywood, which is a resin-impregnated Birch.

It has 5160 steel. IIRC, it was a special build-out done for one of the major retailers (Copper and Clad possibly?). I bought it here on the exchange. The 420HC is a good steel, I'm sure you'll be happy with itExcellent. Which steel does it have? One of these days when I’m patient enough to wait , I’m gonna order a custom 119.
