All About Pocket Knives

RalphAlsip wrote:Scott, you sleeveboard is a nice find. Is the length closer to 3 1/4” or 3 5/8” ? Pattern 62079 1/2 is 3 1/4 and 6276 1/2 is 3 5/8.

Thanks!! 3 1/4" closed

I picked this tested era fish knife up last week from one of our members (Jdub). What a great knife it is and It made me reflect back on my time here and what great guys we have here. I'll relate that story in another thread. Thanks Justin!

Awsome knife Greg. Justin seems to come across the goods.

Tested 88

Yes a little

Wow Zach, that's as sweet as they come.

Beautiful old tested 88,some really good Green bone on it! Bill

Well the bones can't compare with that last one, but this is my humble offering to the thread. I am really liking this more and more, thing is superb all around. Love the configuration, the thin in the pocket ride, the all steel, sweeeeeeeeetest action and snap into place. Wonderful walk/talk and sweet sound of the click. like fluid. And love the bones. No flaws I can find either. I even like the stamps, just Case xx with the long tail, USA, and one x for the date. Looks cool. TB622009 over 154-CM and one that says T. Bose. Probably the coolest Case I've ever had. Definitely. Thanks for helping me get ahold of one Railsplitter, many many thanks Kemosabe.

These are premium for case! Had several of the bose collabs, good stuff! Nice knife

Someday when my ship comes in, I'm gonna get me one of them there Tony Bose/Case colab knives. They're just sweeter'n honey.

In the meantime, I kinda went overboard yesterday and now I have these Mini-Trappers waiting for Monday so the mail can get them on their way to me.

I got a Whittler and swingguard in Ebony I’d trade possibly

I like older case

Picked up this from a AAPK store. 1982 G6154, the G for green I think. The single blade trapper will find some pocket time I think.

Sweet hobo in the collection

6452 1920-40

This 3-1/8" closed Case Mini-Copperhead came in yesterday's mail. Not much to say about it except the blue Krinite handles are pretty and the knife is cuter than a bug's ear. Already had one, this one makes two, pretty sure there won't be a number three.

Wow! Really beautiful bone there ... Congrats

One of my recent pickups via trade,Case XX 1st model redbone.

That’s a nice one Bill

Tom

Agreed Tom. Good pickup Bill.

Was never a Trapper man until I traded for an old XX and started carrying it. Great blades, get real sharp and hold an edge.

Jerry

Thanks Jerry & Tom, I agree about the Blades,I have several good older ones similar to this one,They get razor sharp! Bill

Almost found a real prize at the flea market, a XX 6445R. It looked real good but there was something strange about the spear. The other 3 blades, actually tools, show no evidence of use. The bone is perfect as is the bail, not lopsided, but there is evidence in my opinion that this one must have tried to skin a hot wire. There is evidence on the spine of the blade and on the front bolster of an electrical arc doing some damage. Following this track, we could account for the shortened, narrowed spear blade, I think. The blade was probably salvaged by removing a burned spot on the blade by narrowing it and also shortening it.
It is still a fine old knife, at least 54 years old and would make a great EDC for some one who likes this style of knife.

That's some fine looking red bone on that one Phillip.
