Post by leggo »

I got a couple of new ones yesterday. Ben Hogan green camel bone 651115 Tidioute , and the Navy Blue Camel bone 253115ED Little Jack e-z open Tidioute. I'm a fan of shades of blues ,greys and green . As usual the fit and finish is great. KnivesShipFree even threw in a nice little leather pocket slip.

Ya XX CASE XX I like the Ben Hogan too I might get another one eventually to use as a back pocket knife. I just love how consistant GEC is with the quality , and it seems to me that the newer ones are a lot easier to open these days.

That camel bone is pretty sweet stuff. I don't have any of it in my little collection, but from what I've seen and handled it looks like it would age well in the pocket!!!

Reminds me of the old Appaloosa bone from Case.

YeaJohnny2shoes I think it would too , if I get another green Ben Hogan I'll use it as a back pocket knife , these 2 are going under glass to add some color to collection. Here's Case A6208 I picked up a few weeks ago. I really like the olive green/brown colors.

Lego, I had a couple of Ben Hogans and they fit the back pocket very well. It's not my favorite pattern, but it's got a lot of blade to cut with. The handle is super comfortable too.

Nice addition with that Case. I had one like that with more of a rosey color to it.
