Sound like my kind of users SS. Good news, you have my attention and the gears turning, just say when it will happen and I'll be checking out whatever you put up. Always like seeing your posts and listings. Thanks for the heads up and the compliments. ::handshake:: ::nod::
Will do Iman, I will list these in the “knives for sale” thread. I don’t normally put used knives in my store.

I just looked through several pages of "knives for sale" and couldn't see any from you. Have I missed something? Please let me know if you know why I don't see them on the first few pages. Thanks.
Haven’t had time to list them yet. Just got the pics taken a little while ago. Hopefully tonight. Thanks

Thanks, Ivoryman. I loved your display of Stockmans. There's some fine bone there.

Here's one more of my, rather recently acquired, Stockmans:

Thanks and thanks for posting those, that is a beautiful pair, sweet bones, the swedge, the jigging, single flute on the bolster, match strike, the condition, shield. I could go on. Killer pair yourself, thanks again.

Two with punch blades:

Imperial, 3 5/8 closed. Solid-bolsters. Clip, spey, and punch blades. Well-made, snaps hard. Currently, my go-to EDC Stockman. The Bear-made Moore Maker 3305B is the only one with the traditional clip/spey/punch layout made today, but I'm not sure on the quality, and it's almost $20 more than Case's 3318PU (Shepherd Hills SFO) which is definitely good quality.

Western, no pattern number on it. I need to thin down the edges for it to be an EDC, but currently it's a shelf queen.

That has a gorgeous look to it. I bet it feels great in hand too.

Ivoryman, Mark, I appreciate the comments & I'll be watching the Knives for Sale or Trade thread, too.

While I'm at it, here's another Fight'n Rooster I got not long ago. A little small but quite nice.

Another beauty. I think F'n Roosers are underrated. Have some great knives from them. Love that one's jigging, the color, the shield, and the etch. Looks to be pristine too. You have great taste in knives. ::tu:: :mrgreen: ::nod::



SSK, that is a line up of beauties. Really like the blue bone, the green, and the bottom what is it, amber or something? Gorgeous group.

I believe it’s called Hellbraun, which in German means light brown. Henckels used some spectacular handles on their knives. The jigged fossilized ivory is one of my favorites, not shown. The green is called Mountain Moss. Not sure what they labeled the blue and the yellow.

Thank you much Ivoryman. Just my opinion, & it's not based on a lot of experience, but I equally like the Bulldogs that were made by Olbertz at the time they were producing these Fight'n Roosters. They're two of my favorite trademarks.

Sorry for my poor photography skills. I’ve had this Stockman since about 2012 or 2014, and still cuts like brand new! I carry it with me everywhere, in a leather case, regardless it’s aging well! Aging better than me anyways.aha

Congrats WindyCity on having an EDC which has served you so well for so long. This of course is due to you taking such good care of it.

Nice Case W.C.4-L! A good stockman is like a good friend, you can use and abuse and it keeps on coming through for you... ::paranoid:: uhhmm... not quite sure that came out right.... ::paranoid:: :oops:

Your photo looks just fine. I was able to tell that your Stockman is a 2014. No doubt it'll serve you well for many more years!

I picked these two up while I was away. First one is a "Ole Smokey" 3-7/8" Stag handle Stockman which I think was made by Bear Cutlery for SMKW. This one is unusual for a Bear, It actually has fantastic snap on all blades with no wobble.

The Next one is a Western S742 Stainless 4" Stockman, and the guy I bought it from had a unopened deck of Western playing cards he threw in with it.

Dan... ::dang:: You must have ESPN!!! Somehow you saw into the future... I was taking a break from scraping and playing tug-of-war with Zeus the GSP, and the Camillus goes flying out of my pocket 😱... time seemed to slow down and it all happened in slow motion... there I was yelling "Noooooooo!!!"😱 as it tumbled toward the earth .... ::dang:: ::doh:: There was a horrible thud... I was shaken back into reality... ::skeptic:: ... I grabbed the knife from the ground and did a quick check for cracks, chips, broken scales... ::mdm:: Whoooo, I breathed a big sigh of relief .... ::woot:: NO DAMAGE! ::groove:: :) They sure made them 'ol Camullises tough back in the day. ::nod::

It's some kind of bone, not sure if it's bovine or what. I used the magnifier with the uv light and it doesn't glow like delrin, and it has the veins in the edges or whatever technical term for them are.

Oh, it is nice! ::nod:: ... I just passed on two knives for sale just like it (the Western S742) in a collection because I thought they might be Derlin... ::dang:: ... ::doh:: .... ::facepalm::
