All About Pocket Knives

They all are, so that shouldn't make the price high. Not only that, it's the basic Amber bone model.

This one is approaching retail on a new one, and the 'Buy it Now' prices on eBay. Strange.

Friends, I'm not a Case collector, and I know very little about their collector value. I do like Hobos however, and I've been following them on eBay. The standard amber bone models, new, tend to go for $45-$50, sometimes a bit higher. This one however is going much higher. Is there something special...

And received! I really love this knife. Going to see about getting the Dan Burke Doctor's knife next.

I received my Saddlehorn today from Mike Latham. Very impressive knife! Dull, but that's not unexpected with Queen. I'll resolve that this weekend. I'm quite happy with it.

One additional note:

I'd also consider trades for a SOG or US-made Leatherman multitool, or a current production Case trapper in CV and bone.

Thanks!

Dan

Nice canoes! Queen does make a great one.

Found one in dark red bone for a good price on ebay. I'll post a pic when I receive it. Thanks, all.

Friends, I would like to trade off this nice Camillus-made trapper, as I have the exact same knife in the Camillus Carbon Series. NIB, uncarried, unsharpened. I'm looking for the following (willing to add boot if necessary): Case #54 trapper pre-1980, CV Case Hobo with spoon Any USA-made Hobo with s...

Yep, just one more... That is a nice Trapper you have there.

I actually think my next Moore Maker is going to be their version of the Queen Special Muskrat.

TJ,

Thanks for the heads-up. I ordered a mini-trapper from Mike this morning myself!

Dan

No, JO52, you're not the only one! Heck, I thought it was a longshot, too. I'm a bit of a wino :lol: , and I decided I want something with a bit more panache than a 99-cent corkscrew. So knowing your affection for yeller handles, interested in this Moore Maker full-size trapper? It's Camillus manufa...

Friends,

I'm looking for a current pattern (#130) Case Bartender's Knife. New or used is fine. Buy or trade.

Thanks!

Dan

I want to see the #53 Cuban stockman with a spear main blade in place of the clip. It would be a modern high-quality version of an old-time cattle knife.

Here's my 2008 6375, amber bone, CV. Nice knife, but nothing out of the ordinary. However, it is very special to me. It was a Christmas gift from my mother in a year that she was pretty short on cash. I told her I would like a Case knife, knowing that she could pick up a peanut or penknife at Sports...

I'm not a Case collector, but their #54 trapper is one of my favorite knives. The newer ones don't have the same feel to me, but the 80s models walk and talk like no other knives I have. They open and close so smoothly, and they snap into place like a safe door. I guess, as much as I am a Schrade ma...

Very nice! Queen's mini-trappers are one of my favorite patterns. I EDC'd one for a long time. The Winterbottom bone on that knife is beautiful. What's the steel?

Dan

Thanks, folks.

Mike, I've sent you a PM.

Gentlemen, I am really enamored of the F&W Saddlehorn Lockback and have decided I need to buy one. However, I'm confused as to the handles. AG Russell implies that this knife, being in the new F&W series, is only available in "Morning Ash" wormgroove bone. However, SMKW's site list...

Hi Dale, and thanks for the welcome back! I'm still working up in Seattle, although I'm living in Tacoma now. The WA club apparently has a show in Tacoma, but I've missed it two years running! :( Part of my scarcity, other than time, is that my knife-getting opportunity up here is a bit limited, giv...

Friends, I don't post much anymore, being pretty busy with work and such. That said, I'll still read the forum just about daily. To my old and new friends here, hope you are all well, and I plan to meet the NW contingent at the big OKCA show in April. Anyway, on to my question. I just obtained a nic...

Friends,

I'm looking for a Case Hobo, the newer model with a spoon. They're easily obtained but I thought somebody here might want to do some trading. Doesn't need to be new, just a good user.

Thanks,

Dan

Count me as another Schrade-holic. Especially Old Timers. I can't yet bring myself to claim the title 'collector' - accumulator is more appropriate. I have some 50 or 60 folding knives, about 20 of them Old Timers. I always used Old Timers, simply because that's what Bi-Mart sold (Northwesterners, O...

Like that Boker a lot.

Get well soon, Bud!

Thanks, Johnnie. I will do so!

Friends, I picked up a nice Kutmaster stockman at the flea market today. Hoping someone can tell me about a somewhat unusual tang stamp. As follows: Kutmaster Utica, NY USA T-2 What interests me is the "T-2" stamp. I know there is a tool steel designated T-2. I assume that is what the stam...
