Buck 110 Folding Hunter & 112 Ranger
The Buck 110 Folding Hunter is the knife that made "Buck knife" a household name, and the Buck 112 Ranger carries the same lockback pattern in a pocket friendlier size. Buck Knives introduced the 110 in 1964 as a folder that could lock up strong enough for real field work, and both are still made in the USA. This collection gathers every 110 and 112 we stock, from the original brass and ebony classics to Slim, Crossbar, Auto, and MagnaCut builds.
The Classic Buck 110 Folding Hunter
The original Buck 110 Folding Hunter runs a 3.75 inch clip point in Buck's 420HC, hardened with their own heat treat for toughness and easy sharpening in the field. Ebony scales, polished brass bolsters, and a stout lockback give it 7.2 ounces of heft, and it rides in a leather belt sheath. The 110 finger groove version adds a contoured grip for field dressing, and the 250th anniversary edition marks America's semiquincentennial with a "76" handle medallion. Our Buck 110 review covers six decades of the pattern in detail.
The Buck 112 Ranger
The Buck 112 Ranger is the 110 scaled down: a 3 inch 420HC clip point, the same brass bolsters and wood handle, and a 4.25 inch closed length that works in a pocket as well as a sheath. The 112 Ranger finger groove adds the contoured grip, and the Buck 112 steps up from there. The 112 Ranger Sport Pro sets S30V in an aluminum frame with canvas micarta at 3.9 ounces, the 112 Ranger Crossbar runs MagnaCut at just 3.1 ounces, and the 112 Ranger 2024 Legacy Collection pairs S45VN with Richlite. For everyday carry, the 112 Slim Select weighs 2.5 ounces in 420HC and nylon, and the 112 Slim Heritage Elite brings ebony and bolsters back over a MagnaCut blade.
Buck 110 vs 112 Ranger
Both run the same lockback, bolster, and clip point design, so the choice comes down to size. The 110 carries a 3.75 inch blade, closes to 4.875 inches, and weighs 7.2 ounces in the classic build. The 112 trims that to a 3 inch blade, a 4.25 inch closed length, and 6.1 ounces. Choose the 110 if the knife rides on your belt for hunting camp and heavier cutting, and the 112 if it goes in a pocket or a smaller sheath. Collectors chase both, and nearly every 110 variant here has a 112 counterpart.
Buck 110 Slim, Hunter Sport, and Crossbar Models
The Slim family trims the frame and adds a pocket clip for everyday carry. The 110 Slim Select pairs 420HC with nylon scales at 2.8 ounces, the 110 Slim Pro TRX runs S45VN in bead blasted titanium, and the 110 Slim Heritage Elite brings back ebony and bolsters over a MagnaCut blade. The 110 Hunter Sport sets S30V in an aluminum frame with canvas micarta inlays, and the 110 Crossbar swaps the lockback for a crossbar lock over MagnaCut at just 3.5 ounces. Our steel comparison sorts out 420HC, S30V, S45VN, and MagnaCut.
Buck 110 Auto and 112 Auto
For one hand deployment, the Buck 110 Auto keeps the classic Macassar ebony Folding Hunter look in 420HC, and the 110 Auto Elite fires a MagnaCut clip point from a G-10 frame at the push of a button. The 112 Auto Ranger brings the same action to the smaller frame in Dymondwood, and the 112 Auto Ranger Elite runs S30V in G-10. All four sit alongside the rest of Buck's push button knives.
Buck 110 and 112 Sheaths, Engraving, and Care
The 110 and 112 come packaged with either a leather or nylon sheath, and replacement Buck sheaths fit both patterns when the original wears out, including the 112 Ranger leather sheath. Those flat brass bolsters make the Folding Hunter the most popular canvas for engraved Buck knives, and an EdgeTek Buck sharpener keeps the edge working. Every model is backed by Buck's Forever Warranty, and the rest of the lineup lives under Buck folding knives.
