Re: Newest Case Pick-Ups
Tested 6247J LP
And I love it.
This will probably be my last nice one for awhile, had to sell most of what I had to down size to a select few.

Re: Newest Case Pick-Ups
Well you have certainly acquired some nice ones XxTestedxX. Quality over quantity is a good strategy. It's much easier to take care of them. I am trying to move in that direction as well.

Re: Newest Case Pick-Ups
Thanks for the kind words/encouragement. My knife momentum is slowing down. I usually go in spurts. I do have few coming in, nothing incredibly special.
Some nice "rough" peanuts.
- greenbone xx 6220, it has the circle C shield. thought it would be neat to have.
- Slick black peanut, also with the circle C shield.
- Pearl xx peanut, a bit of cracking on the handles. Did they make an xx era pearl peanut? I couldn't find one in my book the other night.
I got those 3 on a trade, not overly invested.
also a Case Bose collab muskrat/Hawbaker, Traded for this one as well. (I love to trade)
I have maybe 7-9 Bose collabs now, I'm very happy with the ones I have gotten, but I have heard a few members with no such good luck.

Re: Newest Case Pick-Ups
Don't have any my books but I don't believe I've ever seen or heard of a XX era pearl peanut. I'd be willing to bet it is actually a 3220 that had yellow comp handles that gassed out. Some of the XX yellow comp was pretty volatile. In fact I had a yellow comp peanut that was mint so I pried the handles off before it destroyed the knife. Still need to have handles put on itXxTestedxX wrote:Thanks for the kind words/encouragement. My knife momentum is slowing down. I usually go in spurts.

Zach, get that pearl nut in yet? Wondering if my thought on what it was born as is correct.
