I really like the Ka-bar coke bottle.
I bought one of the Brother 1502 last year and liked it so much, I bought 2 more for my sons. I consider it to be my gentleman's folding hunter but I carry it far more than just hunting.

As is my standard practice with new knives, will give them a clean up, will then post proper photos.

Here is the first one, cleaned the covers and flushed and oiled the joints. Then did the first of my experimental finishes on the covers, something i have been thinking about for a while. Very happy with the finish, went from okay, to really classy, look a lot better now.

Beautiful knife Cudgee! I like what you did to spruce it up! With it's simple straight lines, new appearance, and that lambsfoot blade, you sure said it, from so-so to yee-haw!

Case did a very good job on this: half stops, good W&T, excellent fit&finish.
