All About Pocket Knives

I was thinking the same thing Garry.

Like the look of that pattern. The slanted, threaded and pinched bolster Trifecta is pretty cool also.

Good looking knife!

Now that's what i'm talking about Bighomer
Imperials need more pocket love then what they get.
Fat Schatt geo Good stuff
That is a very perty Camillus
Good stuff guys
Case again bouncing around harrowing this morning. Back out again right away.

I keep staring at Ivoryman's Camillus, but thanks Quick Steel, Jerry & Willy. Here's a shot of the S&M beside a bone-handled Camillus 72. The S&M is chunky to say the least but I really like it. The extra width of the S&M is obviously not in the blades & with only two blades & all that room I'm a bit disappointed that it still has a little blade rub.

Terrible phone pic but this Case Humpback

Wow, interesting top view. I am not a Cutler but I wonder why on earth they have two spacers on both blades which centers both blades and crink them hard. That is a wide well for sure. Still a pretty knife.
You would think they could use a single spring with one "off setting" spacer on each side which would provide a narrower well with a possible minor blade crink (and maybe minor rub also) on each blade. Kinda like a CASE 06245..
Be interested in knowing the reason if anyone knows.

Forgot I had a 32 stockman in my EDC pile.

CASE XX USA 1975' 6332 Medium Stockman
CASE XX USA 6111-1/2L Swing Guard with early USA font model stamp.
Hard to get good pics today but you get the idea.

Great bones Zp4ja, excellent pair from an excellent era. Eye candy.

I agree!

Thanks iman and geo! Those two are fun and handy carries.

Regards, Jerry

geocash, I appreciate your comments on the fit and blade rub. I would really like to see more people comment on the qualities of either their edc, or whenever they have a new acquisition. Sort of a minnie review. While a little, emphasis on little, blade rub is not a major defect it is an irritant to me suggesting inattentiveness to detail.

IM that Camillus is a beauty!

Couple Colonial Rangers.

EBRO& CAMILLUS

Ulster and a Kershaw for today

garddog, I like that blend: modern and traditional. One of the few brands I have never tried is Kershaw. From everything I've heard they make a fine product.

Got this one out to pack around a bit. Big knife.

I likes steve

Thanks, Jerry. I hope to find a 6392 in my mailbox some day.

And a question on the side for anyone: Was Camillus the only maker to stamp Keen Kutter? I assume they made mine but it seems like the more I read the less I know.

I sharpened up this new to me schrade walden 861 and it's in my pocket today. Great work knife.

Tote'n these.
