Large Case M.O.P.

[mgdelpriore]

I picked these up back in 02. Shepherd Hills offered them as a sfo. Does anyone know how many patterns were made in this run? Thanks Mike.

[BIGHEAD]

I don't know how many patterns were done but always liked them BTW that is the first Toe I have seen in it though

[XxTestedxX]

I have the..

large trapper
cheetah
canoe
muskrat
peanut

XX, that Russlock is sweet!!! I'm a russlock guy, that is my carry around knife. Not the m.o.p. just a red bone cv. So that count puts us at eleven. I would like to see the seahorse, If anyone has one. Thanks, Mike

My friend actually just messaged me from a gun show, he found me one! So I'll add that to the collection

I doubt it, but if u ever part with the elephant toe! Let me know.

And If u don't mind me asking how much it was? Pm if u can. I found one, the guys wants a lot of it. If it's fair I might buy. Never seen one for sale besides that one

[mgdelpriore]

XX, e-mail sent.

[XxTestedxX]

Replied! Thanks, I sent you a picture of the whittler as well! Take care

That's a fine looking set you have there, XX & mgdel

I have a 2002 MOP Seahorse, but unfortunately, with a different shield.

Q, that seahorse is a real beauty. The more I look at them, the more I like them. I'm a big fan of M.O.P. and abalone handled knives. I just think they are cool. Thanks for posting that picture. I have been to Hawaii twice so far, but never to the big island. The three that I've been to did'n't seem to have any places to buy knives!! Lol. I guess you have a secret spot!!!! Mike.

[XxTestedxX]

I bought a pearl toe, set me back a lot.

[mgdelpriore]

XX, where did you find that, If I may ask? Mike

[XxTestedxX]

In the cracks of eBay, labeled "case knife" complete luck finding it, $500 ouch

I only need the tiny hunter and baby Butterbean to finish the set.

It's been a rough week, found two pre ban Ivory case knives I couldn't pass on and a mammoth slimlock.

[QTCut5]

Wow, XX...hope you have enough $$ left after the divorce settlement!!

~Q~

PS...how 'bout some photos of your new ones?

[XxTestedxX]

I only have pics that the seller supplied, they don't do justice, but I will post Monday or Tuesday when they arrive

Oh, heck.. Here is a taste

[XxTestedxX]

My justification to the wife is I sold several to buy these, but now I have to sell some more lol

[QTCut5]

Sweet! ~

[mgdelpriore]

Good work XX, some real nice stuff!!!! Mike.

Good work XX, some real nice stuff!!!! Mike.

Thanks guys, hate that I spent so much at once, all the good ones came up at the same time. Time to recover lol

I'll post better pics this week

I've got a 3-1/4 inch #079 in my pocket right now - small MOP sleeveboard. Really nice thin knife to carry when wearing dress pants. Perfect "during the week" knife for me ... weekends is when the larger stockmen, jacks and Saddlehorn get the call ...


Question for the Case guys - did Case ever make that #079 pattern with conventional bone or stag sides ? I love the MOP, but can't find any reference to a model number with bone or stag to search eBay for one.
