I have a Buck folder which I carry daily and to which I am very partial. I would like to add a thumb stud to allow one handed opening. A while back I saw in a catalog an add-on thumb stud that locked into the nail groove. Now, of course, I can't find the source. Google, Altavista and Dogpile came up dry. Any referral to such a source would be most appreciated.
TIA

There was at one time a item called a FLICKET that you mounted on non thumb openers [pre-spyderco] .But I don't think it still made, one thing you might try is a Marlin hammer extendtion.I don't know if a Buck 110 blade is thick enoght for the extenion to work.

StonerStudent..
Thanks for the suggestion. The blade is pretty thin compared to the marlin hammer. I appreciate the thought and your effort though.

That's the thing! Many thanks! I must have looked at 100 sites and didn't find that one.
