If I commented on every knife that deserves recognition I’d be here all night. Suffice it to say that you fellas are all flashing some mighty pretty steel!

I just picked this pair up on the Bay. My granddad carried an Imperial as far back as I can remember. I have it but never carry it for fear of loosing it. Now I’ve got a couple of my own!

I never thought of myself as a knife collector until I fell in with this crowd, now I want MORE!

Thanks Jerry! ::handshake:: Appreciate it! ::super_happy::

I already have a Mini Trapper just like this one. It was my very first Case knife & my wife bought it for me. So now this is my first real matching pair of Case knives. Now that I have a second one, I might (might) carry this one. ::hmm:: Haven't made up my mind on that yet. ::hmm::

::hmm:: It would be a good 4th of July carry! I already have a white Case EDC. Then I'd just need a red Case EDC before next year rolls around. ::hmm:: Then I'd have all three flag colors as Case EDC's. That would be cool. ::hmm::

Of course if I had a red Case EDC then I would need a green one as well for Christmas. ::hmm:: ::dang::

Some good looking finds David. I am fond of the Ric Nor Electric Mates. What is the handle material on the Binsa? Looks really nice. ::tu::

Thank you Smitty. The full description the seller used is "Mint German Binsa Spiny Oyster Synthetic Handle Pen Knife. Factory Mint"
It looks like wood in the picture to me, but we'll see when it gets here.
