I found this old Vulcan by T.Ellin. Some of you will remember it as inspiring the third-cut stag on some of the TC Barlows! Then, Mike L sent me another which I got in the mail today!! Which one is older???:) And thanks Mike!!!:D

Not much similar here you'd say? Notable maybe ;)

Interesting to contrast not just the difference of scales: Micarta/Père David, the blades Drop-Point Lambfoot but how the frames work. The GEC is a kind of inversion of the Swayback or a Saddlehorn type and the Wright uses a conventional Swayback frame as found on most Pruners yet housing a straight edge suitable for draw cuts etc.

My only two case knives.

I thought long and hard before buying them together. I asked myself... if I could only ever have two traditional knives, which ones would they be ?
I wanted them to be similar but different at the same time.

So... :)

Two of the most popular patterns ever... a stockman ( I chose pen blade rather than spey) and a trapper ( 4 different types of blades total)
One medium size, one regular.
One cv steel, the other stainless.
One jigged bone, the other smooth bone.
One two blades, the other three.
BOTH Case knives in their traditional bone amber colour.

Excellent choices. My two favorites are my trapper and my medium stockman.
