Is that ever a cool knife Garry. I had no idea Cold Steel made anything like that. Seeing this knife certainly explains why you liked this one so much when I posted it.

Nice colorful, useful group you have there John. Each of those blades look like they would perform any tasks you asked them to. Very nice!

NICE Iman. I like that frosted micarta with it's big, fat spear blade more and more every time I see it! Beautiful pair today, and great photo as well.

Thanks thanks thanks, Marco, always appreciate your comments. Love how the grip improves when your hands are wet. You have great taste too I must say.

Thanks John. It IS a handful of knife, heavy, solid lock-up, and feels very good in-hand. Reminds me of my Blackjack "Mamba" when I'm holding it.

Great knife Willy. Ruby is a very fitting name for that color, and it's wharnie blade just makes it special.

Thank you Mark!
And just to kindly correct you buddy, this blade shape is called a "sheepsfoot". A warnie is allot more gently sloped curve, to a razor sharp point.
But this blade is more useful IMHO. It's like a boxer vs dancer, bulldozer vs Ferrari, wrencher vs programmer, each do there own thing.

Whoops, my mistake Willy. Thanks for the correction, in the future I won't sound like such an uneducated knifer. I appreciate you letting me know.

Don't sweat it mate!
We all need a little education now and again, good for the mind 'n soul.

Camillus 70

As usual, everyone is showing some great carriers. There will be a new one in my rotation tonight if all goes well.

What a clean example. Very knice.

Old Boker from the '50s. I rarely actually carry this one, but the bone, old-style big shield, and threaded bolsters are the bee's knees. Not many knives can be treated like heck (original owner was a good friend of my great-granddad's, then it was sold to my Granddad, my great-granddad's son-in-law upon this friend's passing in the 1980s; then Granddad gave it to me a couple of years back), and still work fine. This isn't a bear trap snap knife like my modern 1990s Beer Barrel Congress, but still snaps good given how poor condition it is, it should have no snap at all.

After a little clean-up, this Camillus 717Y rotated into my pocket.

Western R2. Perfect fixed blade EDC
