Thank you Jerry! That mint XX is a special knife. I don't blame you a bit for not carrying it. I don't think that I could either.zp4ja wrote:Nice trappers Gent.
The bone is more than good on that one Wade. Now that's Case Redbone. I have a mint XX that I can't bring myself to pull from the collection to carry but I sure want to pick one up as a user. I really like a sheepfoot.
Regards my friends, Jerry

Now that's a fine looking pile o knives! The 45 is real nice. And you know I love that loomfixer.royal0014 wrote:My two pick-ups from the Dalton show ....
A slick-black 2245 1/2 and a six-dot 6217.
I don't know what it is about the 6 dots, but most of my loomfixer are ) dots. They seem to be more plentiful on the market than any other year. I wonder what gives there. Yours is a nice one.

Stag on the 88 Congress is rich, just beautiful. OH
Deep in the guts of most men is buried the involuntary response to the hunter's horn, a prickle of the nape hairs, an acceleration of the pulse, an atavistic memory of his fathers, who killed first with stone, and then with club...Robert Ruark

Very nice 6380 ... question though ---> I have a white bone one that has really nice snap on all blades, one of my favorite knives & patterns. I have also had (and consequently sold) 2 others that have had terrible snap. Same approximate vintage for all. It's frustrating to me when I get an otherwise beautiful knife & it has lazy snap that I try everything to fix to no avail ... just seems to be no consistency - how's this new one of yours ?
pffffft that's not a knife ......... now THAT'S a knife !! Crocodile Dundee

Re: Newest Case Pick-Ups
It has great snap on all blades. From my experience with them, all of the ones from around 1974 back have decent snap. The newer ones late 70's and the few they did in 80's aren't so good.Lansky1 wrote:.Jdub wrote:Another USA 65-69 whittler 6380
