The Wonderous Whittler

Every time that beautiful olive bone #62 make an appearance I swear to myself I need to get one. My wallet would appreciate it if you could please stop posting that...:D
 
This one is marked with a retailer's name; R Burnett, Leith Street, Edinburgh

By golly...that little feller has seen the stone a might, eh?
Still a nice piece.

Wow, all these whittlers... I've never really given much though to the whittler pattern, but I'm beginning to really be fond of the idea of the pattern. Seems, now that I think about it, it's quite handy. I like how many super-thick main blades I'm seeing with small ones that are feather-thin... Best of both worlds.
Maybe I'll have to try one some time. ;)

The Buck Whittler Model 310, was introduced in 1992 and continues to be found today, usually at SMKWs, but with a 309 marked main blade. It basically was a model 309 with the addition of the third blade. 300



Came with this wooden slide box for a good while.

Mine came with the box like that. I got it at a large, nationwide outdoors chain. I like it, but it's just a bit too small for me.
