Lockback Love

[CheckSix]

yep! That's a handful of folder! I have 3 folders that I can think of that are 5-1/4" closed.... a Schrade 225OT, Camillus #26 and a #6 and I know what they are like to handle. That 6151L blade is a gorgeous grind but like mentioned elsewhere... it's the mixture of green bone, bomb shield, swedge and condition.

Cattaraugus by AG Russell. Great knife.

That's a beauty Ivoryman!

Case Mini Copperlock. New issue when I post now, half the pictures are upside down. Rotated them on my phone, on my computer, but I post them here and they're upside down again. Anyone know how to rotate here?

[Grump01]

Jerryd's OCD will kick in and he'll rotate them.......

[Ivoryman]

Thanks Grump, good to know, I couldn't get it.

[Tsar Bomba]

I definitely need more lockbacks...

Too heavy for comfortable EDC, but I sure do love the fat stag and blade profile on this Parker Eagle. Very solid knife...more handle than knife, actually...feels almost like a motorcycle handle grip.

A few more I stumbled across in the collection:

Aww, Don. You know I have no control over that.

I admit I don't know what causes that. I just know how to fix it.

Seems to be the metadata of the exported photo, or the orientation data telling the uploader how to orient the photo. I don't know enough about phpbb's guts to say for certain. I always make sure phone cameras are oriented correctly when taking photos, but in Android you can tell right away if the photo is sideways once you see the thumbnail.

I think it has something to do with the way iphones write the metadata versus the rest of the world but that's just speculation. My advice is to always make sure everything on the camera app is "facing up", if you're leaning over or tilting the phone.

Jerry, you da man, thanks tons, didn't think anyone noticed, but you did man, great job, thanks again, hope you're having a good one, you deserve it. Gracias.

AG Russell Smooth White Bone Drop Point Lockback Hunter. (Made in China) Fit & Finish is classic AGR; solid build with attention to every detail (including a striker pin that keeps the blade from hitting the back spring when closing). A very well-made knife.

Nice Q, I like the liners and lever being the same metal. Also nice bones and shield.

[philco]

Excellent knife.

Tony Bose LB whittler in honor of 53 years to the day since the coup de' etat in Dallas. RIP JFK.

[Tsar Bomba]

That instantly-identifiable Bose swedging is so awesome, and that bone is outstanding. I understand Case went to great lengths to reproduce Tony's designs with extreme precision and F&F. It really shines through on those collabs. What a fantastic whittler, Ivoryman. Have you had to put that 154CM to the stone yet?

[Ivoryman]

Thanks, appreciate the compliments. It's a cool knife and great color I agree, but that plus it's overpriced taste in my mouth makes me real squeamish about touching it with anything, much less something as harsh and apt to mar it as a stone or any kind of sharpening apparatus .

[garddogg56]

WOW that Bose has it all

[Ivoryman]

Thanks Gdogg and Tsar. It's a sickness.

Sweet !

Love the wide lock back release on this Tony Bose / Case Lock Back Whittler

~Q~

[Quick Steel]

The Bose of course looks very fine. But I must say that Weidmannshell really draws and holds my eye.

[Ivoryman]

Great bones on the TBLW Q, very cool variable color.
Thanks Quick Steel, solid little knife.
