DO YOU........................CANOE ?

[QTCut5]

Really like the "New Grind" on that 1983 second cut stag, Squach. I wish Case hadn't discontinued that...it's so much more graceful and aesthetically pleasing than the straight line 90 degree shoulder grind, at least to my eye. Beautiful stags & horn.

Thanks Q.

Here's a shot of the Tidioute Yellow Awabi Looking Glass canoe that does the handle scales justice.

Nice pic, Charlie! Really shows off the covers.

Thanks Dan.

I used a high intensity LED flashlight for lighting. I had taken other pics but none of them looked as good as the knife does in hand so I tried a couple of different lighting methods to see if I could catch the colors and fire in the awabi (abalone). This pic caught the colors well.

I'm still canoeing .......

[Tsar Bomba]

Those two are outstanding. What's the top, the "antique green" jigged? I think I have a doc's knife in the same pants.

[Sasquach]

Case lists the color on the Homecoming Canoe as olive green.

How about some "evergreen"?

[Sasquach]

I still have a few I haven't posted.

How about some more butterbeans?

[Sasquach]

And some more beans......

[bighomer]

Charlie that's fine eye candy.

[Tsar Bomba]

A wonderful collection of 'beans, Squach. Some real nice stag in those last two posts, but I love that (burnt? second cut?) bone Case Collector 'bean most of all.

[Sasquach]

Thanks Bighomer.

Here are a couple more beanies.....

Charlie (Squach)
WOW
You have the most beautiful Canoe collection I have ever seen.
Have you ever thought about putting these in a book form?

[Ivoryman]

Old Folder, that's a great pair, especially like the striped green one. Very cool.

Thanks Ivoryman;
One of my favorites also.
Soothing eye candy.

[Sasquach]

Thank you kindly, Old Folder!

I love Frank Buster and the Fightin' Rooster knives. That pair you posted are outstanding!!!!

I'm with Ivoryman, that green striped canoe is real eye candy.

I only have two Fightin' Rooster canoes (so far)......and I might be reposting one or both of these...not sure.

[bighomer]

Old folder those sure are gorgeous, Charlie's as well. Hope that cell stay good. It scares me to death to think about what that stuff can do to a piece of steel.
