Thanks for looking friends!

Looking forward to seeing you post pics of that baby. Wow, those are some fine bones. Color is fab and condition even better. What a cool old knife. Congrats. You should sleep on knife pickups more often. It works.

Nice find Dan!

bighomer says these China made Mables knives are really good knives so I finally found one I wanted to add to my EDC's. Actually I found a few that I liked. The other two were Stockman knives. I already have a number of good Stockman EDC's so I decided to get this Rams Horn Canoe with pinched bolsters.

My other two Canoe's are from Case & are showcase knives. Looking forward to checking out this Marbles Canoe!

One thing I'm not crazy about but can live with is the fancy nail nicks. I prefer either the "Plain Jane" nail nicks or long pulls. And my favorit type is the "Long Pull Match Strike" type.

Thanks for looking friends!

Congrats Dan and Tom.

Nice pick ups, Jerry, David, Dan & Tom.

That Canoe with rams horn is very nice looking

I can see why the Peach Seed drew you in, David.

The 'pipe' knife is very nice, Jerry. I like that blade too.

(considering looking for one for the same reason as you

)

That's a nice looking green, Dan.

Atlanticknife has more than 10 available -- https://www.ebay.com/itm/124307628506?_ ... 0031673590

I sure like the guitar shield on that Michael Montgomery Trapper.

Thanks, Tom. I'll post better photos when it arrives.

Thanks for the heads up on the pipe knife, Jerry. However, I don't do the bay anymore. That's a great price for it though.

And...if you haven't met your $$ quota yet for June, better hurry up and get that JMM trapper.

Thanks for the kind words, y'all!

Jerry, Tom, David, and LJ: all great pick-ups. We as a group are on a major hot streak!

Saw this Rough Ryder Barlow with the Denim Micarta handle and decided to order the series from SMKW.
Should be here by the middle of next week. That used up my knife budget for this month.

The silver one in the clam-pak is #438 (gross exaggeration to make a point) but I just can't seem to resist them when they're listed at fire sale prices. I won the auction for the black 422 by the hair on my chinny, chin, chin. The RR was bought for the shield & the main blade & the handles.

Why do I feel like I have to justify my purchases?

All great knives there Jerry. But that Pipe Doctor though......love the looks of that one. As Marcel Ledbetter would say, you about to fling a cravin' on me!!

I don't blame you David. Gotta love the old peach seed jig. Beautiful find.

Great minds think alike Dan. I've got that same knife, same color, on the way. Tracking says it's supposed to be here Saturday.

I believe you will like it. Marbles and Rough Ryder have really upped their game on quality compared to a few years ago.

Go for it. There are plenty of them out there at what I consider a decent price. If I had my druthers, I'd druther it had a pen blade instead of that pipe stem poker, but as my mother would say, "wish in one hand and spit in the other and see which one gets full the quickest"

I just pulled the trigger on the Buck variety pack!

I figured 110s are like potato chips, you can always have one more.

I’ve been thinking about a 119 forever, now I can think about something else.

The Decatur is imported, so I wouldn’t buy one by itself, but in this case I’ll give peace a chance.

Sharp looking rig! (no pun intended)
If you burned up this months budget, you have more time to systematically hunt down your prizes for next month!

Got an email for a free BUCK KNIVES hat with order of 100 or more.

Gave me a reason to pull the trigger on this beast I've been wanting!!

I'm sure that will get plenty of use. No room for slackers at the Scott casa. Next you need to get the matching camp ax.

Thank you!

I'd prefer the camp machete actually.....the poll on the axe is too wimpy, you need something that seperates the wood!!
