Sweet one Railsplitter, one of my favorite Case patterns, that's why they quit making it you know. Once I get to liking something, ain't around long.

The 43 is a winner. Slim lockback style knife without a lock to fuss with. I just finished putting a fresh edge on mine.

Here's one I got a couple of weeks ago that I forgot to post! This is my second Camillus 72, and this one is in FAR better shape than the first rust bucket I found. I paid too much for this guy, but I am very pleased!

Excellent choice Suitcase. By now you are probably finding out what a great pattern the 72 is. I don't know what you paid that was "too much" but in my world, depending on age & condition, $20-$45 including shipping is about right. JMHO

Congrats on the Bose TRiver, great looking knife. That's one pattern on my someday list. Someday when I can actually find one, if the bidding isn't too high, slow week, someday maybe.

Nice scores on those Case/Bose collabs guys! ::tu:: Beautiful MOP handles on both of those.

I just put in an "I'll take it" for the Antique Bone Norfolk on the left in this pic. My 6th Case/Bose Norfolk purchase. I think I'm kind of obsessed with the pattern.

Wow!
You guys are showing some great knives here. Very nice. Congratulations.

Here's my humble, but well made, George Wostenholm budding knife. 3 15/16" closed.
Just that one pin in the spring.
They must have the tail end of the spring stopped in the "bone" ::paranoid:: to keep the spring from pivoting.

Thanks but I'm all tapped out after that purchase. I did just help another AAPK member snag that Chestnut Bone Norfolk though. Ebony is still left.

We got ours from the same seller too. It's like a Case/Bose extravaganza!
