New from SMKW

The W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company has a very rich history that began in 1889 when William Russell (“W.R.”), Jean, John, and Andrew Case began fashioning their knives and selling them along a wagon trail in upstate New York. The company has produced countless treasures and it continues to do so as one of the most collected brands in the world.

6165 blade was a little stiff. Oiled and worked it and got it opening a little better. Good snap when closing fair snap opening,now. I really like the colors. 6375 only has 1 small blade rub. Will be a nice addition to my 75 pattern collection.

I saw these, kind of like a burnt Blue Lagoon. Pretty cool.
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

The tag on the box says it is Burnt Caribbean Blue Corn Cob Jig.

A few years ago when 6249s were the vault release I bought one in Caribbean Blue because it was one of the first offered with a Wharncliffe instead of the standard long spey blade. Its shade of blue is much too bright for me. This burnt or Sea Dragon color is a big improvement.

I love 75s and competing manufacturers' similar Stockmans! Your 75 Stockman collection is outstanding. ::tu:: Too bad the Folding Hunter was cheated out of its skinner blade but, what the heck, it'll be flat and unnoticable in a pants cargo pocket. The Sea Dragon 6375 is tempting.

Thanks. The color is what really got my attention. 65 is missing a lanyard hole also, but for a safe queen I can live with it.
