I don't think so. I'ts too small.

Back lock of the main blade.

Thank you Chris!

Delivered by FedEx moments ago....
a little Primble and a big ULSTER

I like them both Scott. That little one has pretty bones.

I like it!

Was worried I'd never get my hands on one of these. Buck 301 SFO in elk.

Picked these first two up off the bay earlier this month. Took so long to get here I was afraid they were lost forever. I had even stopped checking the tracking number because it was driving me crazy. But finally they're in hand. Now this last one was a huge surprise to me. I was bombed by my beautiful bride to be after she caught me drooling over this the other day. Will be posting more pics in the German Eye Collectors Forum shortly.

It was a good day.

Tony you bingo' d on that obne, Wow! Love that elk.
Rotten, bayed and bombed and all in yellow! Excellent.

Got this little 2nd generation 72 in bone from our own rexstubbins. Thanks Doug.

Looks like ya scored another winner doglegg, nice bone on that one.

I had two Case knives arrive in the past two days and one I picked up a few months ago but have never shown here.
-1973 6232 medium Texas Jack in chestnut bone from Knifeaholic's store here on AAPK. Even prettier in person than in the pic.
-2018 Mini CopperLock in amber jigged bone. Bright, shiny and sweet.
-7347 SS whittler with rosewood handles that I picked up a few months back. I'm pleased with this one as well.

Case has been under represented in my collecting, these 3 have now doubled my number of Case owned knives. There will need to be more added.

Greg, I gotta tell ya, the bones on that Copperlock are just yummy. Really like it a lot.

Thanks Greg and Wow! 3 beauties you picked up there.

Thanks Jerry. I had been looking for one recently but didn't want to buy without seeing the exact knife I would be getting. This one popped up with pictures from a reputable seller I had bought from before and I jumped on it. The fit, finish and function are all very nice, my 1st Copperlock and I'm pleased.

Thanks doglegg.

Wow..some beautiful knives fellers. ..I found me a old one hidden in a lot the other day when I was surfing..35 bucks for some history, it was a no-brainer..the Camillus hawk local..I want them all..hehe

Mr Jporter, you did good.

$35 for a Case Bros Little Valley stock knife with full blades and warm wonderful old stag (or is that some faint leftover jigging I see on the mark side) AND a Camillus #1??



I'm thinking of placing him under arrest because he done STOLE it.

Outstanding acquisition! Don't bury the lede, though...which one bit yer thumb?

Hehe..the little ebony keen kutter was hungry..I don't know if it's in the picture but he is sharp..and ugly..had to think about my last tetanus shot.. ::dang::here's the whole lot with the hawk~Jon

JP those other knives ate up the 35 dollars, that Case was free. Thanks for showing the other ones. No POS canidates in the bunch.

Bravo Jporter, fabulous Case bones. The knife is sweeeeeeeet and great investment.

Here's The mail basket for the week.

Jon, the Case Bros Little Valley knife is super nice. It looks like it would be a 5345 if the handles are stag like they appear and the length is approximately 3 5/8" closed. Pre-1920 45 patterns are very scarce, and pre-1914 are extremely scarce.

Oh yeah, that case is a heck of a score!

This one came today. It’s a 2007 Rigid brand knife. According to the seller this was made by Canal Street w/ Queen parts. Only 100 made. Rigid attempted to up their game and have knives made in the USA but the effort quickly failed. These were sold on Kniveslive by SMKW and sold out in minutes.
This is one of best looking knives I have now. I am very excited about the quality, fit and finish and looks of this one.
The seller has another one and I am tempted to buy it too.

Thanks Kevin! That little Ulster just kind of spoke to me. I'm like you ,I never really liked barlows until I got one. That will be a user,nice and slim.
