Buck Custom 145/250 in Display Case - Identification Assistance Pls

[Amanda_Rae]

Hi all,

I have recently acquired a gorgeous Buck Custom Folder in a display case that I can't seem to find any information on.

The guy I got it from at a gun show knew absolutely nothing about it; I really liked the quality and material so I bought it anyway. I always seem to like a nice research project....well, I cannot find anything similar online and resorted in emailing Buck History, its only been a week and no reply, but I thought I would reach out to a few forums I am a member of; hopefully someone is familiar with this model/custom run and can shed some light on my find.

More details:
Folder numbered 145/250
Overall Length is approximately 8.75" with 3.5" blade
The tank is stamped with BUCK, an anvil, CUSTOM, USA (in the pictures I accidentally cropped out the USA but its there

It appears to be burl wood scales with red liners and custom pins. I cant tell what type of material the bolsters are, but they have a touch of color to them almost like oil on water.

Any information is appreciated. Also, if I am in the wrong section of the forums please feel free to move this thread.

Cheers, Amanda

Amanda, first welcome to AAPK and to the Buck sub-forum at AAPK - like you we love Buck Knives here! What you have is one of the literally hundreds of variations of the Buck 110 Folding Hunter. Besides the standard models there have been numerous special editions in the standard line (DU, NRA, SMKW, etc.), and from the Buck Custom Shop, and from another category called a "build out". For more information you can check out the Buck Collectors Club (BCCI) - you can join for $10/year and have access to every newsletter ever published by them via the internet. That is a very nice knife, congratulations on your find. OH

Thank you guys for the replies. I will have to give that Buck collectors club some consideration. I only have a handful of Bucks right now, but the ones I do have I like a great deal and enjoy learning as much as I can about them.
