Buck Knife ID

[jerrob]

A decade ago or so, I picked up this Buck folder at an estate sale. I put it in my knife case and forgot about it for several years.
I believe it to be a 110, but not 100% sure.
It's 7.25" open, 4.325" closed and has a 3" blade. The blade has been signed by who I assume to be George and Chuck Buck with ('05). It has a very unique greenish stain and the blade has "Buck Custom" stamp on the blade. It came with a black, leather sheath in perfect condition and knife appears to be new and never used.
I took this to Tennessee with me last trip down and took it to Smoky Mountain Knife Works, just so happens, the "Buck Guy" wasn't there that day.
Any additional info on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks INGO

Thank You Old Dog, as many 110s as I've had through my youth (and lost or broke), you'd think I'd know more about them.
I purhased this one without knowing what it was or it's value. I'm not a collector and I only want to have knives I'm not afraid to use. I don't think this is as rare or valuable as I originally thought and it may go into the rotation before too long.
Thanks again for the info.

Nice knife.

With all the knives on the market these days, still find Bucks to be my most favored.
