I sure like seeing the Case knives you gents are showing. Here’s an older stockman that found it’s way into my pocket today. Replacement stag scales by Bill Hammons, elephant hide slip by Francesca Wilburn Ritchie. While it may not have as much blade material as it once did, this knife feels great in the hand and is a pleasure to carry.

This is my favorite current production Case knife. The Old Dog did a great job designing this pattern. I read somewhere that he used an old Remington from his collection as a guide. Speaking of Tony, that is a great gift he gave you in that Trapper Charlie,

waynorth . Very special that he sharpened it himself. Your scanner makes your knives all look especially nice.

Thanks, Greg!! I really treasure that "factory" trapper!! And I look with unbridled lust whenever I see that Redbone TB Sowbelly of yours!!!
I'm not buying any knives right now, due to current conditions, but that will be my first search, when I start looking for a knife to add to my collection!!!

That is some exceptional Stag my friend . But you should already know that . Looks like Bill Hammons has done a great job too. The slip really goes well with the knife also . Thank you for showing your exceptional knife .

20 year old knife, but I just got it yesterday. My first Copperhead pattern. I'm really liking it so far.

Thanks Gents, its always gratifying to show knives to folks who appreciate them and know what they are looking at. My wife just rolls her eyes and yawns.

That's part of what makes BF such an easy place to attend.

What's not to like about that?! A beauty! I'm a big fan of wharncliffe blades and that one seems perfect :thumbsup:

These are the only Case knives I still own (had some others that I either sold or gave away). I'm a big fan of the mini Trappers and now the Copperhead. I also really like the Tribal Lock but don't carry it as often due to its size.

The Wharncliffe blades they put on their trappers could sure pass for a lambsfoot!

What model knife is that?

Ryan Thompson · Apr 3, 2020

I’m no case expert, but maybe a peanut?

That knife is a small coke bottle. I forget the number; maybe
a #6225 pattern??

When I was new here, @Jack Black "slapped my hand" for posting my Case Wharncliife Mini Trapper in the Guardian thread.
