I recently picked up a Sowbelly and a Wharncliffe Whittler, yellow Delrin, uncoated blades
I have a canoe and a sowbelly stockman from the Classic Carbon series @PaulS. mentioned, and as @Jack Black pointed out, the knives in this series have uncoated carbon steel blades and yellow synthetic handles. Here are some pics of mine.Rough Rider has a series of uncoated carbon steel knives. It's the "Classic Carbon" series.

I'm no steel expert (I can't tell the difference between what Imperial USA used in the '60s and Case's current CV), but I can see no difference from my other carbon steel knives in terms of edge-holding or development of patina. I plan to get a 4" single-blade toothpick and/or a muskrat version from Rough RYder's Classic Carbon series, and maybe one of those Wharncliffe whittlers, too.any idea what steel they are using?
