Thanks a lot Nev! The 1508 is also my favorite, and that seems to be the general consensus among others too, it's that blade that gets everyone! The 1511 is also a very nice knife, if you're thinking of purchasing any Brother knives it can't be left out!

Marco,
You read my mind. I was thinking I need that knife!! I must control my self.
Regards
Nev

Marco,
You are a bad influence on me. I just ordered the 1503!! I could not help myself I kept looking at your knives and tossed a coin on the 1508 or 1503. I decided on the 1503 in bone. I am going to have to stop looking at this web site. It's costing me too much money But you only live once. Thank you for posting I had never heard of this brand. I will post it when it arrives.

Ha, ha, ha! Nah, just keep on buyin' and repairing Nev! I don't know about you , but I'm already 68 and my health isn't the best so I want to enjoy whatever time is left. Mind you, I have ZERO financial responsibilities cuz I'm single and everything is paid off so my pensions each month are pretty much mine to do with what I please after rent utilities and groceries. I believe I read you say in one of your posts "my wife" so your situation is likely different and you must account for your spending. In any case I've never been known as one who gives out great advise so you gotta do what your heart tells you! LOL!

I don't see that as a plus.

I totally agree Jerry! Those knives either get clipped to your belt in a sheath, install a clip on them and use it like that, or just dropped straight into a pocket. I made the picture and post more for informational purposes than anything else.

I have no quarrel with the picture. I was just saying I think the canvas pouch is not a needed addition to the package.

Yep, I get it and agree Jerry!

1508 will be here Friday. 1508 in white bone will be here Friday. I am usually a patient man.

Nev! In your post about deciding which model to buy you said you decided on the 1503, yet in your most recent post you say you're waiting for the 1508, so which one did you actually get? Thx!

Marco,
Your right 1503 in white bone is what I ordered. I don't know what I am doing I must be too excited
Nev

Hey Jerry,
Your right!! Hope you are feeling better.
I can thank you for the pacing cat. I looked it up after seeing it on one of your posts.

Feeling much better but not tip-top yet.
Yeah, Felix has worn a path in my carpet on more than one occasion.

Jerry! I hate to be a nit-picker but, if I'm not mistaken the last line of the song is "and I think I like it"! I'm sorry my man, I have one of those minds that instantly spots flaws!

I just received the Brother Watchman 1503. Very nice knife. Fit and finish perfect. In my opinion. Nice size for an everyday carry knife.
I am a little disappointed in the white bone. I think I should have gotten the black micarta. From the pictures I have seen on here it makes the knife stand out more. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase. Would I purchase another Brother Watchman knife? Yes, but in the black micarta. Sorry about the picture I am not a photographer.

Looks just as good as in "Mail call" Nev! To see your pictures of the white covers I'd have said they appear to be cracked ice not bone, and I for one find them extremely attractive! And just FYI, the covers on the other model are carbon fiber not micarta. You surely needn't apologize for your pictures either, just take a look at some of mine sometime! Congrats on your new Bro'! LOL!
