I already fessed-up about the Case Norfolk because of it's small clip and the Wharncliffe. Nope, she's no safe queen. Every time I see Tony Bose, he's tickled to see my Norfolk as it gains pocket wear and hear the stories about how much use it gets. It is like a half-whittler on steriods with the AtS-34 blades and SS liners and bolsters, but the blades are what does it for me.garddogg56 wrote:OK all you great knife users not all your knives are safe queens you must have a user that you like a particular blade and why

Re: Knife blades
I'm with you IMBand;1095 gets a lot of press time but for an EDC at work I really have no problem at all with SS .Like with my Bucks they hole an edge just as long as any CV or 1095 but with me D-2 last longer.IMBand wrote:I have been liking a fat spear blade mounted in an EO frame, especially if it has a pen secondary.
1095 Carbon is real nice for a folder........but I like SS just fine too.
I am really hoping to see a GEC #65 with a secondary pen blade. The pen would have to be good size in
the 4 1/2" frame and would be very handy imo.

Re: Knife blades
Well it's been over two weeks and the trapper isn't cutting it I need a pen blade so I took the trapper out of EDC rotation and slipped the barlow back in the RFP So I guess it's gut to be a barlow or a jack or a stockman in the RFP from now on

Re: Knife blades
Trevor you just described the Camillus #33. I've been carrying this one for quite some time and it's just about my favorite. Though I do like a Wharncliffe blade quite a bit.IMBand wrote:I have been liking a fat spear blade mounted in an EO frame, especially if it has a pen secondary.

Bob, I fell in love with that Norfolk the first time I saw it but since I can't afford one, it will have to be one of my dream knives.
