Re: Newest Case Pick-Ups
Beautiful old tested 88,some really good Green bone on it! Bill
Re: Newest Case Pick-Ups
Well the bones can't compare with that last one, but this is my humble offering to the thread. I am really liking this more and more, thing is superb all around. Love the configuration, the thin in the pocket ride, the all steel, sweeeeeeeeetest action and snap into place. Wonderful walk/talk and sweet sound of the click. like fluid. And love the bones. No flaws I can find either. I even like the stamps, just Case xx with the long tail, USA, and one x for the date. Looks cool. TB622009 over 154-CM and one that says T. Bose. Probably the coolest Case I've ever had. Definitely. Thanks for helping me get ahold of one Railsplitter, many many thanks Kemosabe.

Re: Newest Case Pick-Ups
Someday when my ship comes in, I'm gonna get me one of them there Tony Bose/Case colab knives. They're just sweeter'n honey.
In the meantime, I kinda went overboard yesterday and now I have these Mini-Trappers waiting for Monday so the mail can get them on their way to me.

I like older case
Re: Newest Case Pick-Ups
Picked up this from a AAPK store. 1982 G6154, the G for green I think. The single blade trapper will find some pocket time I think.

Re: Newest Case Pick-Ups
This 3-1/8" closed Case Mini-Copperhead came in yesterday's mail. Not much to say about it except the blue Krinite handles are pretty and the knife is cuter than a bug's ear. Already had one, this one makes two, pretty sure there won't be a number three.

Agreed Tom. Good pickup Bill.
Was never a Trapper man until I traded for an old XX and started carrying it. Great blades, get real sharp and hold an edge.

Re: Newest Case Pick-Ups
Almost found a real prize at the flea market, a XX 6445R. It looked real good but there was something strange about the spear. The other 3 blades, actually tools, show no evidence of use. The bone is perfect as is the bail, not lopsided, but there is evidence in my opinion that this one must have tried to skin a hot wire. There is evidence on the spine of the blade and on the front bolster of an electrical arc doing some damage. Following this track, we could account for the shortened, narrowed spear blade, I think. The blade was probably salvaged by removing a burned spot on the blade by narrowing it and also shortening it.
It is still a fine old knife, at least 54 years old and would make a great EDC for some one who likes this style of knife.

Re: Newest Case Pick-Ups
An old one and a new one!
First is a tested era 6172 with the pattern # and 3pin handles which should indicate that it was fairly early in the tested era. It also sports the bowtie sheild.
And second ,I just can't get enough of these, an Antique bone tribal lock.

Re: Newest Case Pick-Ups
Wow gsmith, that Tested era is beautiful. They don't make bones like that anywhere anymore. Fabulous. XxTestedXx, knocking it out of the park on multiple hits there. Love the old green and Rogers bones on the oldies. Both of you rocked it today.
