NICE WORK, IVORY

Many thanks Junebug

Gave these knives a workout today,a Grip,a Christy and a Wave with a new Lansky 25°edge.My older Wave will get 30°just to see which angle I like better

A Small Saddlehorn designed by Bose for Case. OH

Bruce that knife looks like it would lay just perfectly in the palm of your hand while in use. It's a handsome knife as well.

G D I'd be interested in what your conclusions are on the two different edge angles.

It varies a lot, but frequent carries are a Hen and Rooster, a CRKT Two-Timer, and my newest EDC, a 70's Case 6392

It is a nice handling knife Phil - I particularly like the blade shapes on it. Thanks, OH

Steelmyheart - that is one fine looking 6392! OH

Thanks, OH...it's a nice knife with minor blemishes. It's on top in this pic. Bottom 6392 I'm pretty sure has never seen the inside of a pocket, pretty much Dead Mint. Only upgrades to EDC on my winning the lottery.

That Bose is sweet OH Thats a great 92 Steel my heart

Wireing heavy transformers today with my Bucks.

Think I'll pack this Canal Street 4 inch stockman.

2006 Cheetah Cub Bone Stag lock back. 6 1/4 open 3 1/2 closed. Smooth, sweet, crisp action and click, good lock up, solid, flush, right. Great size for the pocket.

Thanks Joe. I just went over to the dark side and got an iPhone. I found they take real good pics, and let you edit them to make them even better.

There's some real fine looking knives here boys.

Nice knives gents - I see we have Canal Street, Great Eastern, and Case on display - all the current big names in fine quality American cutlery. I'm going retro for the weekend with a Schrade USA 34OT medium Stockman. Hope you gents all have a great Fourth of July weekend! OH

Ps Somebody needs to pocket a Buck so we don't leave that great American knife out, maybe I'll drop this in my watch pocket!!

Headin' down to the big city with my only Robeson in my pocket (and it's probably a Camillus). It's a great carry when you don't anticipate too many problems along the way .

CRKT Ed Halligan Slip K.I.S.S. Drop point. 6 open 3 5/8 closed, very thin in the pocket, amazing snap and half for just a skeleton frame. Only thing that concerns is the nylon washer/ring around the pivot bolt. How long until the nylon wears out? Wouldn't worry about the metal, but nylon will wear out, and then the pivot might be botched. Until then love the drop point and thin carry and funky look. One side edge grind only.

Very Nice! Wish I was Camping this 4th of July Weekend! Would be nice to have a few beers around the old Camp Fire at night.

Last night I decided I'd let the baby boy, 4, pick my knife for the day. He picked his current favorite a full size Case Sodbuster. It's a real workhorse and is developing a real nice, almost black patina.

I still couldn't stand not having a Stockman so I decided to take this one on its maiden voyage. It's a 4 inch Wards Stockman. Perfect bone, great snap and travel, but I've just never got around to packing it. Pete Cohen said it's a Camillus, others have said a Winchester. I just know I like it!
