If you're like me and missed the boat back when Buck was offering the 110 and several other models in BG-42 then now's your chance, perhaps even your last chance.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with BG-42 here's the scoop on it.

It's a truly wonderful blade steel and blades made from it are some what scarce and usually quite spendy. Buck offered it on their 110 Hunter as part of their Master Series knives which included the 119 Special and a few other models a few years ago. If you can find one of the MS 110's on ebay they usually run in the $200-$250 range for NIB examples. SK Blades got Buck to make this special run with the last of the BG-42 they had and from all the info I have seen it probably will be the last time Buck will use this steel as it's not cheap and I believe it's a bit hard on the equipment they use to blank the blades.
It's never been offered on a drop point 110 before and given the under $100 price SK Blades is asking this is a great opportunity to get a really nice blade. I got mine a week or so back and could not be more pleased. If you've ever wanted a blade in this steel or are just interested in getting a blade at a bargain price that will only appreciate in value I would urge you to take advantage of this opportunity while there are still some available.
I'll try and get some photos of mine posted this weekend.
