Titan,

Those a powerfully good looking knives. A cannitler is my next knife from CSC, this has got me putting a wanting on one.

I've got a couple of muskrats only right now. The reclaimed chestnut Cannitler is what I'm wanting!

Thanks for the pictures.

I got this pic of the net because I thought you guys may want to see it.
Reclaimed American Chestnut handle,Barn wood over 100 years old.

[titanNV]

The American Chestnut series is real nice - each is different in that some even have nail holes from the barn!

Yep,I don't own any but I sure am tempted to git one of those.That is one cool knife.They have all the history on the barn wood at SMKW and it was a long history.

Here is my American Chestnut (this happens to be the actual one I bought although the picture has become a stock photo for my AAPK store).

I can't tell from the pics I've seen - most are straight on from the front.
Is the CS canittler a true whittler? Does the main blade ride on two springs?
Thanks!

Yes Blue, the main blade rides on two springs while the two secondary blades each ride on one spring. It's a very stout design.

Well don't I feel stupid. As many times as I've looked at these and it just now hit me. A 'Canoe' frame with the blade configuration of a 'Whittler' = 'Cannitler'

Don't feel bad Jerry, I learned that watching SMKW on TV.
Thanks for the info Phil.

[philco]

I had to go to a knife show to learn how to pronounce it.

[jerryd6818]

I have in my mind it's , 'ku-knit-lure'. Is that it, Phil?

[orvet]

I have one like the first one you listed with the amber bone handles.
I use it in my shop. Great knife I really like Canal Street knives, though I like them more for users than to collect them.
CS makes some of the best user knives on the market, IMO.

"kah nit ler" is the way I'd pronounce it Jerry, but I'm from the south so your milage (and pronunciation) may vary.

[jerryd6818]

Phil, I think we're saying the same thing in a different phonetic language.

'Ka' as in kaboom
'nit' as in the larvae of head lice
'ler' as in the last part of whitt'ler'

Now my head hurts.

[rangerbluedog]

That's it. But you gotta SHOUT it - like the boys on SMKW TV.

"GENUINE - YELLOW - BONE - HANDLED - KAH-NIT-LER!"

(emphasis on the 'NIT' part)

[philco]

Jerry I don't know nuthin bout no head lice.

Blue you been watchin way too much TV son.

[DRS]

I think you both got the pronunciation right.The cannitler pattern is one my favorite of CS,I have several of them,one day I'll take pics of them and post them.

Here's a green jigged bone Canitler I picked up yesterday as a stocking stuffer...........for me!

[rangerbluedog]

Ya done good Phil

[titanNV]

Nice green bone!

Here is a SFO we did in 2012:


The Elk Horn is simply amazing. Each one is pretty different.

Summer pine smooth bone, made in 2012:

This arrived yesterday. First impressions: It's a useful variety of blades in a nice compact package, as slim as a Pinch or close to it. Closed length is 90mm (just over three and a half inches). The main blade is 70mm long (2.75 inches) and 4mm thick (almost 1/6 inch) at the tang. Both secondary blades are about 1.5mm thick, which is getting into Opinel territory. All three blades came extremely sharp.
