My First Peanut (Case 3220CV) Dressed in New Clothes

Post by herbva »

I'm not a big fan of small knives, or yellow scales, but this little peanut came along in a group of Case knives that I purchased at some point. Every time I looked at it I wondered what to do with it. Then I recently I noticed some smaller pieces that were in a batch of stag that I got a few months ago. I'm warming up to it and it does have amazingly good snap for a little bugger.......

Thanks Bob. It's really a bit too small for my taste, so I will probably put it up for sale on the bay in a few months when I have accumulated enough "extras". :D

I'd say you blew the yellow plastic away. The antler rocks, good show, great work, nice improvement. Love a good mod that makes plane jane turn into prom queen.

Great score doglegg. When I read he wasn't real fond of little knives I considered asking him if he would sell it too because it's probably the best looking Peanut I've ever seen and I like a some littles. But glad I didn't, couldn't have gone to a better home. Congrats.

Thanks Iman, looks even better in person. I could not be more pleased with it. Thanks again. ::handshake::
