Re: Ode To The 07
I just happened to stumble on to it. Got it at what I thought was a very reasonable price.

Re: Ode To The 07
Nice stumble on the black Carhartt, jerryd...first I've seen of that particular model. With all your recent 07 acquisitions, I think by now you must be the King of Mini T Mountain.
I've been waiting on a new 07 to arrive for over ten days. It was shipped from TN on 1/22 and seems to have gotten caught in some kind of postal vortex in San Francisco where it has been stuck for the past week according to USPS Tracking. Very frustrating.
Meanwhile, thanks to John showing his Dark Molasses Bone Mini T, this one proved to be too much of a temptation for me to resist.

That is an obvious case of deliberate enabling right there. Someone throw a flag.

Re: Ode To The 07
Steve, that right there is just pure low down meanness. 
I gotta pass on that one ~Q~. I'm not a fan of second cut stag and especially at that price point. I'll just have to live with a hole in my Carhartt 07 lineup but I'm okay with that. That doesn't mean I don't appreciate you keeping your eyes open for me though.

If the price is the issue, I just found one at CK.net for less than $50.

Re: Ode To The 07
I bookmarked that one. I'm starting to become overwhelmed with all the choices compared to the budget available. I also have my eye on one of these.

Re: Ode To The 07
But Don, have you noticed how many variations of the 07 there are? Are you going to give me a generous monthly allowance? 
That's me after January.

Re: Ode To The 07
Ahhhh, that's a beauty ~Q~. There are just too many. I can't afford all of 'em.

Re: Ode To The 07
Thanks, jerryd.
Not only can I not afford to get all the knives I want, I really can't even afford half the knives I actually get...but I get 'em anyway and somehow manage to work it out. For me, they seem to come in waves, either feast or famine. I still have four more mini Ts bought & paid for and in the mail, but the Universe seems to be screwing with me and taking much too long to get them delivered. I am still waiting on one knife that was shipped on Jan 22 from silverladdie in Chattanooga, TN, that was last scanned in San Francisco on Jan 31. Pkgs shipped first class from the mainland typically get to me in about 4 - 5 days, so the delay probably means that this knife somehow got mixed in with the parcel post and is burried in the cargo hold of a container ship somewhere in the Pacific Ocean and could take up to ten weeks to arrive. Then there are the sellers who don't ship the knife immediately after receiving payment. For some mysterious reason they create a shipping label and then hold onto the pkg for two or three more days before dropping it off at the PO. Very annoying to say the least. When I sell a knife I always ship it within 24 hours of receiving payment because I just naturally assume everyone is as impatient as I am and wants to get their new knife ASAP.

Re: Ode To The 07
~Q~ we're singing out of the same hymnal. Sellers seem to be too deeply steeped in tradition. Don't they get that when they print out the postage at home and affix it to the package, they don't have to drop it at a post office? They can stuff it in a drop box if it fits through the slot, put it in their mail box for their route man to pick up or just hand it to any carrier they see on the street. And don't get me started on the USPS and all the crazy stuff they've been doing since they restructured their distribution system last summer.
After last month's irresponsible spending, I wasn't going to buy any more this month BUT this one from my wish list forced me to hammer it sold.
Stock picture. Listing pictures were horrible but after a few messages back and forth, he convinced me it's brand new/in the box. He said he's an old Navy Corpsman. He wouldn't lie about something as serious as that. Would he?

Re: Ode To The 07
These two are not Case 07s, but they are Mini Trappers, nonetheless. Made in USA by Bear MGC but the price and quality are closer to a Pacific Rim production knife IMO. (The Stag Delrin arrived with a spot of rust on the spey blade right under the nail nick which is visible in the photo.)
