This one has the factory edges. A good solid knife I would carry without hesitation.

Huh. Looks pretty good in pics, fooled me anyway. Nice one.

Thanks buddy. It fooled me too when I saw the pics and couldn't make out the stamp. I foolishly assumed that if it was coming from Bulgaria it was Bulgarian built, but no such luck. It was inexpensive enough though to make the sting very minor.

Does that minor sting mean it was made in China?

LOL! Yah, I'd have to say so considering the "Minsheng" stamp on the blade!

Very nice Tom! I really like the little lockback with the bail and attached cord!(The LB1? ) Sweet!

Nice one!

I have a slightly smaller Jack that looks quite a bit like it.

While Utica for me are hit or miss (and those with woodgrain Delrin handles usually tend to be quite poor), they do make some good knives quite often. They also tend to be cheaper than Camillus or Schrade; while quite a few can match their quality (with which my Jack is one of those). The majority of my Moore Makers are Utica products.

Thanks Buddy! Yes, Schrade LB1 (Lock Back 1).

Excellent lineup, TPK!


The mailman visited me today! Wasn’t expecting this one for a few more days, I guess the post office can pull it off once in awhile. GEC 86 in oily creek bone. This rounds out my set of Tidioute 86’s. Now to fill those holes in my Schrade lineup…

Sweet!

Double Sweet.

Will wonders never cease. The Schrade (China Made) Land Shark showed up today, actually a little ahead of schedule. Pretty well made. Now if the other one would stop running up and down the IL-WI-Mn corridor...............

Sweet knife Jerry! I have this Taylor Cutlery "Elk Horn" model that was built in Japan. Cool little knives, huh?

Mine's a Taylor "Bear Creek" (don't know where it was made, but I would guess probably Japan).

Nice little group you have there, Tom! I see you getting a lot of use out of the little LB-1.

You did well, too! Sweet shield and covers on that one.

Thanks Buddy! I just love that little LB-1 ! I'm a sucker for knives with a bail I guess.
I like the bail, the lock, the wood, the brand & the size. I'm sure it will get a fair share of pocket time. Starting yesterday.

Jerry, Marco & Q those are pretty cool knives!
Surrounded by Sharks!!!

Q! Your tang stamp reads, "???sport, Tenn.", so on top of your stag model definitely being the nicest of the 3, it's the only USA made model as well!

Thanks guys for all your great comments, I know I appreciate them!
