What really let the world know about Barker's knife is the prestigious Barker 1 10 folding hunting knife. Since1963buck110 came out, more than 1. 1 100 million pieces have been produced so far. Buck 1 10 became the best-selling sports tool in the world within two years of listing, and was selected as one of the 20 most representative tools in the 20th century by American Blade magazine. Even today, Buck 1 10 is still the favorite of knife fans.
196 1 Barker Company was formally established, and new products were continuously introduced. It was Barker 1 10 folding hunting knife that fired the first shot in the market. When Buck 1 10 left the factory in September 1964, its legend began. At that time, the United States was in a dream period, from hippies, Harley motorcycles, rock music, utopia to landing on the moon, and then to the birth of Buck 1 10, everything was so legendary! At that time, most of the knives used in outdoor activities were two or three-edged tool knives or large folding knives without locking devices. Although the lock back was invented at that time, it was not valued by people because of its poor quality. But Buck 1 10 has captured the hearts of many outdoor activists with its superior and safe locking device, solid handle made of brass and wood, and excellent blade.
The first edition only produced 700 pieces of Buck 1 (the first edition type 1). The blade is slender and all hand-made. The marks of manual cutting are obvious. The handle is very thin and beautiful. At that time, it was the heyday of pocket folding knives, but folding knives of this size like Buck 1 10 were very rare in the market, and most of them were old-fashioned and lacked charm. So Buck 1 10 was very popular as soon as it came out, and a belt bag that was not popular at that time was added, which was originally designed for hunters.
