Lovin' the orange soddy, John!

(If only the blade had a black Titanium Nitride coating...I'd be buying my first sodbuster. )

I've promised myself not to buy anymore knives for quite a long while so I thought I would go out with a bang.

2015 Case/Bose Cattle Knife straight from the mailbox.

I've said those words and said those words and said them, but I lied them. Good luck with that though. And what a beauty to mark it. See how long it lasts.

You're so right. I tried it a couple years sago and only made it about 2 1/2 months. My goal was 12 months. I even attended a knife knife show during that time. I didn't buy anything there but sure enough, a couple months later I saw a knife I just had to have.

Funny thing is, right now I don't even remember what that "had to have" knife was.

I believe knife acquisition qualifies as an addiction. (being serious for a half a minute)

Wow that's some pretty bone. Reminds me of Giraffe on the Northwoods, but I assume it's Zebu. Love the splotchy dye hits and misses. And great color.

Oooooohhhhhh my...........that is a beauty!!!!!

[jerryd6818]

Yeah ~Q~, that's a good'un no matter how ya cut it.

[QTCut5]

Seems like every time I decide to stop buying knives for awhile in order to give my budget time to catch up, inevitably, I'll find a bunch of "must have" knives.

Here's another one that I just had to have. (Looks like The Monkey will have to survive on beans and rice for the rest of the month!)


2006 5207 Stag Blue Scroll

Anyone know what the letters 'BW' & 'KP' hidden in the blue scroll stand for?

[jmh58]

Thanks, guys. I have really fallen for that Green Bone on the earlier Case knives. If you can find it at all, good examples don't come cheap, though.

And not to be a Nitpicking Negative Nelly, but in the interest of full disclosure and documentation for posterity, I should point out the unfortunate fact that this is the second knife in my very small collection (6) of pre-1970 Case 6207 Mini Trappers that has a proud secondary pen blade.

Great bone, sweeeeeeeeeet warm glow. Wow. I wouldn't mess with a beauty like that but it's so easy to fix. I've carefully ground down several blade kicks to make the blade sit a little lower when closed. Two minutes on a wheel. No issues. Congrats, that's the kind of bone.

[jerryd6818]

IMO well worth the wait. I love it.
The picture sucks. It's much better in hand.

I just noticed. Is Case bringing back the "new grind"?

I believe that is the grind used on the Tony Bose patterns...which is about halfway between the Regular Grind and the "New Grind" Case used in the early 1980s.

Top: New Grind
Middle: T.B. / Case Grind
Bottom: Regular Case Grind

Today I add these two pocket knives to my collection. They both are CASE XX (2005), 6207 SS, 2 blade, Orange County Choppers, mini trapper pocket knives. They both came with their tins (not pictured). They didn't need any cleaning. I took some pictures and here they are. All the pocket knives in the last picture have orange handles. A couple just appear to have yellow handles.
