Thanks for asking our help on building a Buck 110. Lately I've build looking at the Buck Custom pages, and this thread showed up at the right time!
It was a blast to consider all the suggested options. No matter what the final product turns out to be, it will be a cool & sharp blade! :thumbup:
My vote config was drop point, S90V, stonewash, nail notch, aluminum, no pocket clip. I didn't select a handle material, but have something I'd sure like to see on a 110 (or 112) some day. That would be a handle made out of Antique River Logs. It's not only a very beautiful wood (unique color ranges, patina, & grain patterns), but carries some great American history highlighting the recovery of this 18th-century wood. It would just add a new dimension to the "made-in-the-USA" appeal of a Buck. I love this wood, so this is my primary wish-list for a Buck handle.
