All About Pocket Knives

Doug, that mini-copperhead looks like it's about the same size as the peanut. How long is it closed? Love the Wharncliffe blade.

Thanks Jerry. The mini is 3 1/8" closed, which makes it just 1/4" longer than the peanut closed. The main blades are almost identical in length, with the clip of the peanut measuring just 1/16" longer than the wharncliffe.

Even though the mini is a single spring, it is only slightly thinner than the peanut (0.3125" vs. 0.375" of the peanut).

Going to carry these this weekend,Case,Scallion and #14

That TB is sweet Gino and that Shapleigh Hardware is to die for singin!

This ol' dog still goes for a walk with me occasionally.

I wish Case would make more carbon steel blades!

Boy that's a solid older Jack right there Charlie, is that a 35?

This Jack is keeping me company.

Sweet knife Caleb!

I love this one after having it with me all day today for the first time. I really dig this knife. I have been into GEC's mostlty the last year or so but this Case blows most of them away! Tony Bose knows how to design a knife. Case hit the nail on the head with this one, its quickly becoming my favorite and its my EDC as I write. It also cost less than the last 12 GEC's I bought. I still love GEC's but this Case knife was like a old friend returning. Anyone get what Im saying????

Gino, there have only been 3 knives in my life that have really blown me away as a new knife. One is my Northwoods made Cotton Sampler 1 of 7 Tortoise, then a custom made Bruce Bump HJ that Charlie got at the show last week and finally a Tony Bose Jack that Sunburst had gotten a few years ago. You can not beat the quality!
I've been switchin back and forth between these Jacks, Schrade Cut/Ulster and the Shapleigh Hardware

I'm not sure, singin. It was in my grandfathers "knife drawer" when he passed. Of course the knife drawer was left to me. I cleaned it up and found one hair-line crack across the bone on the back side of the handle. Other than that it is in perfect usable condition with good snap and half-stops on both blades. As you can see the only tang stamp on the knife is CASE over XX which dates it between 1940 and 1964 but I haven't nailed down the exact model number yet. It matches up well with the 62035 1/2 patterns pictured in my books but how can I be certain?

Absolutely! I speak that language. You have corrupted me though. I'm adding a new carry to my line up as well but going in the other direction right now. You've got me hooked on GEC. This White Owl looked good in the pics but when I got it in my hand I was completely taken with it's feel, fit, and finish. It will ride in the LF pocket today while I give the Victorinox SAK a breather.

I have this one set out with my monkey suit for "Sunday-go-to-meeting" duty tomorrow. It's a veteran that has been with me for about 16 or 17 years.

Thanks John, I also found that I like the size of it too. I never carried one this big before but you cant even tell its in your pocket.

GO PENS!!!

Tim

Tim, thats a beauty, one of my favs!

Thanks Gino,

That was a gift from our member 'little nick".

He said he was tired of seeing my German stag knives so he sent that one.

So for those that are tired of seeing my German stag ,......take note


Tim

I like the plan and the knife!

In between knife reviews of pocket clip knives (Kershaw Clash and SOG TWITCH II) this Camillus EDC makes it on my pocket lip.

Thanks Perry

Yeah, nothing. I tried to be very careful when I cleaned it but if there was ever anything there, wear and rust have erased it.

This one has been on my belt since I got it. It's breaking in very nicely!

Still trying to wake up.

Have pockets so I MUST have a light and a sharp.



I generally treat this nice. No change rattles around with it. And it is RR Sharp!

I LIKE it Dave!! Real nice!!! John
