Lookin' for a "toe"

I'm looking for a good EDC toe/sunfish. Bulldog or any other non Chinese. Not really interested in Case stuff. Would prefer one with double pulls on the main blade and no etch on the main.

If you've got one with some "neighborhood" on it and think it needs a new home, gimme a shout.

I've got some stuff to trade if you know what you're after or I've got a few $$ to play with.

Just hate to pay the $$ they want for a PRETTY new one and mess it up using it.

Thanks,
W

I've got a toe I'll sale you Willie, even got a thumb too if the price is right. My toe is 100% USA made. It doesn't have double pulls, it does have one wart, a callus, and a hang nail though. It doesn't have an etch but it does itch a lot. Don't know how long you could stand to tote it around everyday with the way it smells. :mrgreen: J/K

Willie it seems like most of the non-China, and even the carry worthy only toe pattern knives gets put away in collections regardless of condition and use. Maybe you can find one with cell handles that's gassing that someone will let go of for a reasonable $$ price and you can get rehandled. Other than that, and illuminating all the cheap China junk, the cheaper jigged wood handled Case toes seem to go for the least $$ from what I've seen on the bay. Everything else is usually pattern collectible, vintage/age collectible, tang stamp brand name collectible, or handle material collectible and hoarded up by collectors. Good luck and I hope you find something you like.
