Re: WHAT ARE YOU CARRYIN RIGHT NOW? WHAT IS YOUR FAV EDC?
Nice totes all around, gents! Big-H, is that Queen canoe stag?
Speaking of NF77s I couldn't resist tossing mine back in the LFP all week along with this matching Case 64052 - turns out the green I was worried might be too bright is a perfect complement to GEC's "spring green" dye. The recent GEC run of 13s seems to have rekindled a passion for the Congress frame, I've been carrying a lot lately. Another RAT-1 clipped to the pocket completes the triad.
IIRC Charlie has sole control over when they run TC Barlows - I actually gave up on them altogether and started focusing on NF 77s until I found out there was a separate run commissioned by Charlie of the single-clip 15 TCs last year. I might send him a message - I don't see him active on AAPK any more but I think he's still posting on the big forum. Next time I get wind of a TC run I'm going to set up reservations on every dealer site I can find - CK was the dealer that got me my TC finally but they're like Lay's potato chips - you can't have just one!Ivoryman wrote:RIGHT ON Bomba blade brother. I wrote the company for just that. Asked for a run of TC Barlow, single blade, sheep or wharn, stag. They didn't sound enthusiastic. Maybe someone like CKnives or Charlie would be more excited.

I wishTony it's a work horse line canoe, the rat is what they call queen stag. Here's a better photo hopefully.

Re: WHAT ARE YOU CARRYIN RIGHT NOW? WHAT IS YOUR FAV EDC?
That's a good photo. I like the workhorse knives - is yours 1095? Most of mine are but I have one that (unless factory error) is stamped D2. All with the telltale unfinished pins and grippy (staggy or Winterbottom) Delrin. It's a good-looking knife to my eye.bighomer wrote:I wishTony it's a work horse line canoe, the rat is what they call queen stag. Here's a better photo hopefully.
I recognized that muskie as the "real" Queen bonestag, I always drool over 'em but I don't buy a whole lot of rats because of the blade redundancy and the fact that I often carry 1-3 knives with clip blades on any given day anyway. It sure would look nice with my 6.5 Case Barlow though. If Queen makes a moose with the same handles I'd be a buyer for sure.

Tony I'm the king of want, I want every Queen I see. I've got a few but not near enough. I actually like the rats but heck I like all patterns except for a couple.

Who knew an old Hibbard sunfish would look that good in canvas micarta? The long pull+nick is my favorite thing about those old toes. Must be an awesome carry knife.FRJ wrote:Packin' this one today.
Re: WHAT ARE YOU CARRYIN RIGHT NOW? WHAT IS YOUR FAV EDC?
Thank you, Tsar Bomba. It's a great knife and a great carry because it's so thin.
Muskrat Man put new skins on it and kept them thin, as requested.

Wow. That Copperlock looks great with that red bone. That clip blade is just about perfect. I had a mini Copperlock but my son "liberated" it from me.KnifeSlinger#81 wrote:Just got these two cases (among others) in trade, but these ones went with me for the weekend. Plus my well traveled 8OTY.
Guess I'm gonna look for one like yours. Too nice not to own.
I have to ask.....what do they call the acrylic handles on that Russlock?

Re: WHAT ARE YOU CARRYIN RIGHT NOW? WHAT IS YOUR FAV EDC?
Thanks. I think the copperlock is a beautiful knife in every way, you should definitely get one. The walk & talk is simply perfect for a lockback. The russlock handles are called patriot kirinite. They look very nice, they have a bit of a sparkle effect to them. It reminds me of the wild colored cell handles of the 20's and 30's, but these won't gasbdev wrote:
