Kyle noseworthy very nice work but I'm not a fan of buck knives as they use 420 steel I go no lower than 440 I owns two case knives they are fantastic for my spoon carving and cleaning my caught rabbits for pot I also use flexcut jack knives comes razor sharp out the box greeting from UK England near London 🐾🐺👍:-)
Hi, looking for someone to make some really good whitetail buck shed antler scales for
my Buck Folding Alpha Hunter (279). I have the antler that will be used, but I don't have
the tools to cut and shape them. The rest of the knife is in really good shape, and you
can use the original rubber scales to shape them with. Let me know if you are willing
to take this on, I can send photos of the knife and antler, and you can quote me a price.
Very little polishing will be needed, except on the edges of the scales.
I think it's funny with all the talk about him blowing his nose that is named as Noseworthy
@@randompunkrockfox6867 420 is better than 440c loll
Hey man don't catch a cold just to do a job.

I’d prefer like a exotic wood as a handle, but the choice you made is pretty good. I do like how people do try and work on old knives even if it’s just to give them a new look.
Those scales would look great on a Case 5299 1/2. Beautiful finished knife.Great Work!
The 110 is a classic for sure. I've got a 110, 503 & 373 - hope to order a customized 112 at some point (no pun intended). Thanks for the video on a great knife!
When I glue anything black, I mix photocopier toner in the epoxy, and it gives a deep glossy permanent black bond, which fills any imperfections as well.. Maybe this tip will help someone,,,
that's super interesting! The toner doesn't degrade the epoxy at all?
Kyle Noseworthy - Weiderfan , nope, I like the jet black colour for a lot of jobs, no downside at all !! I've heard you can mix in kids poster paint (dry powder type) for a range of colours,, but that's on my list of stuff to try !! Recently found your channel ,, keep up the good work buddy !!
Great tip. I think I might try toner in ca glue and baking soda for repair. Super nice work absolutely beautiful
You can mix in the dust produced by sanding the material you are working with. The correct colour is always to hand.
A few years back I attended an inlay class with David Marks in Santa Rosa CA and Larry Robinson (he does much of Martins super high end work). Being a novice neither my routing nor my cutting were very accurate. But CA glue and wood/bone dust do a great job of filling in any gaps between the inlay and substrate. Won’t improve the accuracy of what was cut, but you won’t have gaps. Soooo.. If you have a similar issue with scale material and bolsters such as are on the Buck 110 worry not, you can fix it with CA glue and dust from sanding...
Very nice video Kyle. This isn't the first time I watched this but I think I picked up some detail I didn't see originally. The scales are incredible. I have a 110 from their custom shop. It has white scales and a black finish on the blade. My thinking was a mirror finish would look nice opposed to the black. I had the blade made with S30V steel. one of my favorites. Again great video. I enjoyed it very much. R
Man, I'd love to see pictures of that one! If you're able, email me a few! weiderfan.business@gmail.com
I used to use alot of the b horn it sands and polishes nice... Until i did a camillus 32 fish knife for a florida resident... Yep you guessed it the sunshine state warped it up bad! So im going to use other materials,theres plenty more to choose from.And also always pin your handles to the knife;i mean no epoxy even blade bond can handle shocks like being dropped...Handles will just pop off! not a good feeling,esp when you do all that work.... Looks good though!!
Brother, just beautiful... Thank you so much 🙏 can’t wait for it to get here.
Gorgeous work, that's a keeper for sure
I am currently doing this to my 110. Here's the difference; I amusing popsicle sticks to build my scales.
"That's a knife!" Beautiful. Deserves a Crocodile skin pouch.
You did an awesome job with that knife. I have maybe 50 Buck knifes. Family & friends bought them for me over the years as Christmas and Birthday presents. I saved almost all of them. The Buck 112 is a far better knife then the 110. What would it cost to get a couple of knifes done this way? Where are you located? I was thinking about doing one for myself and one for my son.
Backlock folding knifes are made in Europe since 1880, in Spain, italy and Germany. Buck was the first making in the USA massively, but as I said you, it was NOT the inventor, not even remotely :)
He said inventor of the "lock blade", not folding blade.
@@tedrowland7800 yes, I was saying backlock folding knife, Buck is not the inventor of the backlock, is the one who 'industrialized' this system, but existed in several factories here in europe :)
I was looking forward to this video!
Edit: wow, that was a lot of work, but well worth it. Beautiful job!
Fantastic! Great video and great craftsmanship!
Amazing work brother!
That turned out amazing!
Does Buck knives stil make the model 112? I use to carry that knife back in the 70s. I think it's a better knife.
Thomas Tommy yes they do there about 50-60 dollars I had one in the 70s as well loved it still have it and I bought my grandson one last year
Ficou muito bom seu trabalho , parabéns
You do very nice work you should be proud of yourself because I am
Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls
Beautiful work for sure!
What kind of epoxy was used to hold the new scales on?
holy sniffles..
it's a curse..
Yeah please blow your nose. Great video
The sniffles are inherently “Noseworthy” Lol
It's diet
It was a little annoying, but I would of done the same if not worse so I am in no place to criticize
Nice job...love the 110
He’s got Shamffered Hole.. I’ve Never Seen A Shamffered Hole . I hope I’m spilling that cerrectly... geeezzzz
Amazing!
How do i make my buck 110 a smoother opener? It feels like it’s grinding something
Most likely dirt or grit in the pivot. Compressed air might be your best option.
You never heard of a round carbide bur? Why you muck up those scales.
sniff sniff sniff sniff just what i need to hear .
Give it a rest
rad
Beauty!!!
😊
awesome
“Noseworthy”sniffles
Really good job owner will be pleased 😃
Mostly bikers, hunters, and truckers carried the 110 in the 1970s. After the TV series 'The Dukes of Hazzard' came out in 1979, everyone had a Buck 110 on their hip, even in school. I opted for a Schrade LB7. Used to put finger grooves on 110s or reprofile the blade tang for quick one-handed flicking. One company made a blade attachment called the Flicket that was very popular for Buck 110s and similar knives.
I opted for a Schrade LB7 as well. My wife at the time gifted it to me as an anniversary gift in 1981. Still have it today. I preferred the LB7 over the Buck 110 because the finish was much more refined. For instance, the rivets along with the pin were flush with the scales, and the mechanics of blade open and close were smoother and solid, as it is today :)
Not to forget Navy men always had 110s on their belts - closest thing to a modern sword on board ship. Problem was too many snipes and Skulls would get into knife fights (speaking from personal experiance) so Buck came up with the shorter blade ranger for ship board use which doesnt make it any less lethal. Blades are so sharp you bleed just looking at them.
@@RobertBena-r9e I was in the Navy from 1983 to 1987 as an Aviation Electronics Tech, but went to Aircrew School in Pensacola FL. after A School. Stationed as a Helicopter Crewchief on Heuy UN-1N's in Southern California. Tucked in Chambray shirts and dungarees for the work uniform back then. We weren't supposed to have anything hanging on our belts, so a lot of the guys had the Paraloft sew up Nylon webbing as an inside the waistband knife sheath. All you would see is a loop over the webbed belt. These days the new Navy working uniform covers your belt so you can't see what is clipped on that belt. I carried a Spyderco Police model in my flightsuit chest pocket (they came out in 1984) and Cold Steel San Mai Tanto in my survival vest (I was dating one of the Cold Steel manager's daughter).
Cool project! Try a brass hammer when pounding on the brass bolsters.
Use a ball cutter bit on your Dremel next time, you can do precise cutting to cut the pins heads down and not damage the scales so you can use them again if needed!
exactly if you can find them dentist drills are amazingly precise tungsten carbide cuts a bit too good
Marring the brass with your pliers like that too. I mean, good work at the end, but damn.
It hurts watching you disassembling the knife, but OMG the result is amazing! 😍
Great video. I think almost 7 out of 10 of the teens i grew up with had the buck 110 folding hunter. Ive had mine since i was around 12-13 years old (now im 57) and still have it in my small knife collection. Ive worked on a few of them but only to repair a broken handle or loose pins.
After watching this video im giving serious consideration to customizing my buck 110
Thank you for all this great instructions you sir are a master.
Thanks so much David. They are an iconic knife, that's for sure. A buffing wheel is most beneficial for these projects. All of the rest of the job can be done by hand, sanding with various grits. However, you'll never make that brass and bone gleam without a buffing wheel!
David, if you have had your 110 for 45 years, it may be very collectible as is. Please look up the Buck date codes to see when it was made. I can't recall exactly when the date codes began -- probably around 1970. If so, yours is very collectible as is.
Nice job and carefully crafted. Would suggest cobbling together two thin lead covers for the machine vice to prevent injury some metals and using jewler's rouge for the brass polishing.
I got the 112 Ranger, so this should work for it too. Nice vid. Thanks!
He's sniffing? I thought was just a Canadian thing. Go figure.
Seems like a cold to me. Be kind, please.
This video could have been saved with a bit of tissue paper, and a few blows. Sucking mucus ever 45 secs made it unwatchable... sadly
This video is exactly what i was looking for! You explained everything very clear and did a great job. Thanks.
Something I'm quite interested in. The knife work. But for crying out loud, go blow your f*cking nose.
The knife is beautiful in it’s original condition. It doesn’t need to add or subtract anything from it.
You ever heard of the K55K? had a lock back way before this
They are great knife I have one myself a lot of people never seen them they always ask me where I got it holds a pretty good Edge as well
Buck did not make the first folding knife with a locking blade but they did perfect the locking blade knife when they came up with the 110 design. Some one would have to be doing something really stupid with a 110 to actually break the lock and cause the blade to close on their fingers. They would basically have to be an idiot don't ya think?...lol
That was amazing! You, sir are an artist. Thanks for the video.
Thanks so much Scott!
@@kyle_noseworthy👌will you provide the web for those Buffalo horn sacales? Tks
Nicely done! I have some elk antler I would like to put on mine one day.
Would have been a great video if you would have shown milling down the scales fitting the scales and polishing disappointed
Give it a rub with brasso. That would really put a shine on both horn and metal...
You created a beautiful piece with great hand skill.Its absolutely a collector treasure.
A little more detail on polishing the blade please!
You did a lovely job on the Buck knife. The owner will be more proud than before to have such a great looking knife.
Blow your nose! ;-) Real nice job!
Blow your damn nose already and take some Benadryl
Lockback knives like this have been around for quite a while. Note the Cattaraugus 'King of the Woods' (1906). I'm fortunate to have had one passed down to me. I do not own a Buck 110 but wish I did. My go-to large knife for butchering and hunting is a Case double bladed Trapper. Thanks for the video.
Instead of pounding on the pivot point there would be less of a chance of marring the bolster by compressing it in a vise and pad the jaws.
Wow brother that’s amazing work!! I would love a customized Buck 112. I actually have a UA-cam channel- where most of my reviews are Buck knives.. I would love to do some business with you!
Brasso made in Canada shines brass the best !!!
why not center puch and drill thr pin instead of screwing up the wood handles
BEAUTIFUL WORK KYLE!
SALUDOS VAQUERIANOS FROM MONTERREY,MEXICO.
Any chance of using a hanky, I have switched of, cause I do not want to listen to you snotting on.
Shit, I'm wantin a knife like that but with mahogany scales. Also, I'm probably gonna want it done to a Buck 110 Auto. They're a bit more practical, in my opinion. They sell one with S30V blade steel, I should probably buy one and try customizing it myself. It'd be a fun weekend project.
You've got some excellent skills my friend!!!!! - absolutely beautiful.
thank you!
Excellent job man! Where I have to send my one? What abt the price? And how long to wait? ;)
email me at weiderfan.business@gmail.com for details bud!
Where abouts is that accent from? I can definitely hear Irish influence in there.
I just bought an Uncle Henry buck 110 style knife and hopefully this year will get my first water buffalo here in the Northern Territory of Australia. I'll have to look up how to stabilize the horns so I can customize my knife with them. Figure it would be a great hand me down for my son. Thanks for the video. Awesome work.
appreciate your step by step deconstruction and reconstruction but next time blow your nose, please.
That was some beautiful work man great job. I have two buck 110's. I may do this to mine one day.
Stunning work brother. That's worth a sub. I've got a lot of knives but I've got a soft spot for my 110. Maybe it's time for an upgrade...
could you split ONE BILLET - thickness wise - so you can make, maybe, two sides THE SAME LOOKING? How thick is a BILLET?
haha.. just watched this older Buck upgrade video.. where you say "I'm not authorized to do custom file work on the lock-bar... how far you have come in 5 years....
Buck, iconic knife , they however did not create the lock back knife......
PeterC585 so, help us out. Who invented the lock back knife?
@@dwainsw4076 I'm not sure but the
The Mercator knife is over 100 years old lock back
@@dwainsw4076 folding knives date back pre-roman times
@@dwainsw4076 Lock-blade knives have been dated to the 15th century. In Spain, one early lock-blade design was the Andalusian clasp knife popularly referred to as the navaja.[16] Opinel knives use a twist lock, consisting of a metal ferrule or barrel ring that is rotated to lock the blade either open or closed. In the late 20th century lock-blade pocketknives were popularized and marketed on a wider scale.
@@dwainsw4076 buck 110 came out in 1964
Your the boy really enjoyed the video I have 112 buck I have a customise one that a oid boy mad me based on a 110 with good German steel cup up the good videos pall thanks
That was fantastic. Absolutely love what you did!
6:15 did you just put the lock bar back into a dirty knife without cleaning anything out of the inside of the knife? 😳
Yes, I was concerned about a few steps that were left out, including the removal of the pliers tool marks.
How much would you charge for putting a stag/antler handle onto a Winchester pocket knife that looks like that Buck knife you redid?
You did a beautiful job on that Buck. I kind of cringed when you started but the results were worth the watching. I wonder what that knife would look like with some good stag inlays?
i nave a nice-looking Gerber with zebrawood inserts finger grip curves, brass bolsters and a really polished blade I liked the look of it better than the buck I got i back around 1990 when they were clearing out those styles for the synthetic handle knives
Dude! Get a handkerchief for Christ's sakes! That's gross! I'd like to watch the rest of the video, but I just can't handle your runny nose.... and the constant sucking snot back into your head!
Beautiful work, Kyle. I'd love to have you customize my Kabar. Will try to contact you. Thanks
I have a 110 with one side of the scales that is ruined. This video is great! I have a new project 👍
There are no buffalo in the US/ North America. So, I am not sure how you have genuine US buffalo horn as the scales!
I remember when the buck knife 1st came out. I was told I was too young have one When I was old enough I received one for my birthday . I have had many they have came and gone. I now have a 50 year anniversary. But after your video I'm going to buy another and try my hand at putting on new scales . Glad I found your UA-cam channel knife looks great look forward to more videos. Take care and thank you.
Dennis, buy and older one and upgrade. Why mess with a perfect brand new one?!? (My 2 cents on your knife.)
hello mate, you have know wrecked the value of the knife so this is a usless video and the buck company name! just because you dont know how to make your own knife from scratch . just wanted to stop any other dumbass from making the wrong choice as well it is no longer a collecters peice. bigdog out!
Man...this vid knocked me out, the knife turned out gorgeous. Sorry I'm so late.
I bought Woodglut once and now I have lifetime access to thousands of woodworking projects.
I do that vice thing too ,I have a big ‘un and a little’un to go in my joiners vice, very useful.
I ‘ d like to have seen the rivets back in place if it was mine.
That’s beautiful. I am so gonna attempt that. I’m from Hawaii so I think I’ll use Koa 🤔🤙🏽
Dude thats fkn! Beautiful! I hate the handles buck uses. They look so crappy n inconsistent. I think they should use a rosewood or make more variations. But good work man! I might have to make one myslef!
Nice job but a littje wasteful of a very expensive buffalo horn scale it woujd have been more beautiful if you use the single piece and care full of of splitting jjust an idea not to offend the maker anyway thanks tor sharing
Maybe blow your nose before you try any more videos. I was disgusted by your snot dripping and your continual sniffling sounds.
you do GREAT work sir.. i have a buck auto can you make new Scales for mine???
I have customized my 110, and glued on the scales with 2 part epoxy ,no pins through the scales. I used buffalo horn and proper prep. The scales came off after carrying. I reglued using different 2 part epoxy and they came off again. Does this make sense? Are these just safe queens? Help.
Good question. Was the metal prepared properly to accept the epoxy?
Great work on a beautiful knife. The sniffling was distracting if I'm honest.
Kyle Noseworthy. Can’t stop sniffling. Coincidence or conspiracy?
I'm a big fan of the Buck 110 and 112 as I grew up on those. Beautiful piece of work man. Loved it.
Are today's Bucks made in USA.I heard they went to China in the 90's,not sure?
