Sigh. Yeah, that's a beauty. Be like hunting hen's teeth to find one at a reasonable price in today's market.

Soon, this Imperial "Longhorn Steer" pocket knife, will be joining the others in the zoo. I'll give it the once over, take some pictures and post them in the appropriate location(s).

I usually pick up a few Winchesters during after Christmas sales at Tractor Supply and Walmart. They are very well made for the money. For me, they are mostly workhorses and beaters. I especially like that OHO/lockback design. Does it have a pocket clip?

Bought this Case XX 2007 Tiny Muskrat last evening from AAPK's Sanders Knives. This brings me one more step towards my goal of collecting 5 Case XX knives to represent my family. One in correspondence to the birthyear of each family member.
I now have 4 of the 5 I need to reach my goal. Last one I need is my son's birthyear 2001. ::tu:: :D

Here are the pictures from Sanders Knives. ::tu:: The blade etch reads "Central Kentucky Knife Club" & "2007 Show Knife"

VERY nice Tom. ::tu::

I just obtained this for best offer. It is another Imperial "Longhorn Steer" pocket knife. It is my first "Longhorn Steer" in this particular pattern. When I receive it, I'll check it out, take some pictures and post them in the appropriate location(s).

I just bought this camillus 69 because it looks like it has bone handles; we shall see. Wasn't much money.

I just obtained this pocket knife. Another Camillus 72 (72Y Yello-Jaket), yellow handles, 3 blades, swelled center, "whittler." When it arrives, it will get the once over, but it looks like it's in very decent shape. I'll take pictures and post them in the appropriate location(s).

I won the bid on this'78 Delrin 6235 1/2 on EBAY last night. I probably paid a little too much, but i like it.

I woke up this morning to an email telling me I had won an auction I had set a snipe on several days back and forgot about. (gives new meaning to "set it and forget it" :lol: ) I bid because I see it as an oddity. It's a Rough Rider five blade Mini-Trapper. Case made one but I would rather experience one at Rough Rider prices.

Seller's pictures of course. Duh.

I'll recommend one to you, Collector Knives (CK Net) has some, but I don't know how many - the run was from 2017 and I was actually surprised to see any dealer still had one. Could be due to his rating of the pull as a "4" on his website. The knife I received has different pull on all three blades (6+ on the Clip, 5 on the Sheepfoot and 4 on the Spey). The Walk & Talk on all three blades is positive and snappy. OH

Jerry, That is cool and I like cool but different things. I've thought about buying a five blade Stockman for some time (for the same reason) but want one in a Case brand (6592) and they are old, rare, and pricey! Been waiting on my PDL method to kick in but it hasn't yet. Maybe I should check out RR - never owned a RR but I read good things on AAPK about the quality for such and inexpensive knife. OH

Ps Jerry, when you get it in the mail (and fall in love with it), check out this listing from one of our AAPK members - the original version from Case! OH

Colonel, that's a fine looking knife but a little bit stiff for my pocketbook. Ergo my RR purchase.
