Mark, the knives you collect are outstanding! Two more beautiful examples ... Many again!

Got a different style fish knife from the Bay in the mail today, to further feed my appetite for Japan made knives.
Good deal at $13.49 w/shipping & tax.
Valor Wilderness K-12 ... 4" closed
The sheath I don't believe to be original, but the knife fits very well.

As a beer drinker (mostly bottles), I see that knife as indispensable and a great value

I can see that ... and to cut some bait with also. Thanks TopDog!

The July Give away knife came and it's absolutely gorgeous. The pictures don't do it justice.____Dave

That's a beauty, Dave, congratulations on the win.

I scored this beauty from Mark of SSK. Canal Street muskrat. Thanks Mark, stellar customer service as usual. It's my 4th purchase from Mark and the 5th is on its way. Buy with confidence. I'm a sucker for ACSB.

Wow! R+R+R!!! That is a beautiful KNIFE!

[Sharpnshinyknives]

Glad you like it Rick. ACSB is an absolutely beautiful handle material. Canal Street had some of the best.

[RedRaiderRick]

Truthfully ACSB is the prettiest in my book although there are some Mammoth scales that blow me away too. Even as nice as some stag is, ACSB is the bomb. I mean look at this Moki, also from SSK. I just sit and admire it!

John & TopDog "Back In Blue", and looking good!

[Reverand]

I got this Western Hunter in the mail today, fished out of the shallow end of the Bay. It has obviously outgassed, and someone plugged the lanyard hole with JB Weld.
My first thought was to use the Clip blade out of it and redo this Western that I finished a few weeks back, which had a broken main.
But the blade on this new one has been shortened, and the tang stamp is completely worn away.
I think that I may just do a blade delete and rehandle on it instead. Or I have some Schrade folding Hunter blades - I may just create a Frankenknife.
Any suggestions?

Now that's a good looking knife, John, right down to the color and my style blade, is it too much to hope it has only the single blade?
So simple yet truly elegant, congratulations on being the owner of that beauty.

There's that knife again, Dog, seems to me you said it was "Bombed" to you, yes? If that's the case, you gotta know somebody out there likes you.
Never get tired of viewing that stunner, buddy.

Marble's Saddlehorn D2. Shown next to a full size Case Trapper for size comparison

[Corn Creek Cutlery]

Fine looking Case Dave!
RDN ... I like the Case and the Big Marbles!

This one came yesterday:
Rigid RG14 ... 5" Closed ... 8 5/8" OAL ... Made in Japan
This knife features a unique liner lock. By sliding the thumb tab on the bolster up, as pictured, the liner lock will be free to move. Next, you depress the shield inward, which moves the liner over to disengage the blade. If the bolster tab is in the down position, the liner is locked, for safety while using. The shield will not depress. These and the RG15 model were also made with "Operation Desert Storm" on the blade, and were serial numbered.
