Mark, the Seki Japan Coleman's are just splendid. It's so tempting to buy every one I see.

Good things come to those who wait. I wasn't sure I'd be keeping the 2019 BladeForums 86 but now I'm not sure I can let it go. Rich African Blackwood that is a deep rich brown mixed with black. The backspring is flush in all 3 positions. The pull is about a 5 and a little soft but I attribute that to being new. For its size it feels well balanced and I can almost feel the usefulness of the blade. And, I got TWO pins.

That’s a nice one.

I picked up this CASE TB sowbelly with G10 black and red weave scales in CV!

I’ve got to give it to Deadwood Knives. I ordered this on Christmas Eve, they shipped it out that day and I had it the day after Christmas. And that was with standard mail, free shipping. Outstanding!

Thank you sir! Not my normal cup of tea, but I was drawn to them myself.

Not my cup of tea at all but I do have to admit, it's rather classy, Cuz. You have yourself a fairly fine piece of cutlery there.

I just pulled the trigger on an Orvet Custom fixed blade. This stag looks amazing to me, excellent restoration work, Dale! I couldn't pass it up. My second Orvet Custom but first fixed blade.

Nice! I have an Orvet custom Western B/T pretty darn similar to that one. He do excellent work!

Thanks Dan :D Now if I can just get them in the display cabinet before Cheryl notices there are 5 of them. She doesn't understand that 5 RR are nothing like buying 5 CASE or GEC knives.

Miracle of miracles. It wasn't supposed to show up until Tuesday but it was in my mailbox today. The seller called the handles "Campfire Bone" (neat name) but the box says they're "Burnt Oatmeal". I have a Mini-T that was a SFO for Tractor Supply that has "Burnt Oatmeal" and I wasn't all that impressed with it. This one is better and apropos of nothing, I think it was a SFO for SMKW.

That's a nice bone handle regardless of whatever name it's given.

How do you feel about the width of the 6307 as compared to a 6207?

It's okay. I expected it to feel "fat" in my hand but it doesn't. I'm very pleased with the knife. Much more so than I thought I would be.
