Picked up a couple lately. Saw this red snake skin mini doctor’s knife offered by Wild Horse Customs and had to have it. Case has always had the best looking bone handles in use today. This is one of just 500 made.
The other is a GEC 86 with mammoth ivory handles.

I agree with Marco... That Red Snake Skin Case is great, but the Mammoth 86 with the swaged long pull spear blade is absolutely sensational! ::ds::

Thanks Mark Kevin and Q. The mammoth wasn’t cheap but I couldn’t pass it up. Both knives went right to my display cases.

Me too Jerry, If I see any other patterns with these bone handles, you can bet I’ll collect them all.

JP you are very welcome.
Too tell you the truth I put the books together so long ago I forgot about the price guides. Hopefully you enjoy.
That was a tasty looking batch of Crappie.

Picked up another red diamond back jigged Case knife. Muskrats are not my usual knife to collect, but this is the only other pattern I could find with these handles on them. If they add more, I will go after them all.

Nice Rat, Mark! They're also making these in a 54 Trapper in case you haven't seen it yet.

Thanks Kevin, I didn’t know that. I don’t like trappers but might have to bite the bullet and get that one too.
