I picked these up back in 02. Shepherd Hills offered them as a sfo. Does anyone know how many patterns were made in this run? Thanks Mike.

XX, that Russlock is sweet!!! I'm a russlock guy, that is my carry around knife. Not the m.o.p. just a red bone cv. So that count puts us at eleven. I would like to see the seahorse, If anyone has one. Thanks, Mike

My friend actually just messaged me from a gun show, he found me one! So I'll add that to the collection

I doubt it, but if u ever part with the elephant toe! Let me know.

And If u don't mind me asking how much it was? Pm if u can. I found one, the guys wants a lot of it. If it's fair I might buy. Never seen one for sale besides that one

That's a fine looking set you have there, XX & mgdel ::tu::

I have a 2002 MOP Seahorse, but unfortunately, with a different shield.

Q, that seahorse is a real beauty. The more I look at them, the more I like them. I'm a big fan of M.O.P. and abalone handled knives. I just think they are cool. Thanks for posting that picture. I have been to Hawaii twice so far, but never to the big island. The three that I've been to did'n't seem to have any places to buy knives!! Lol. I guess you have a secret spot!!!! Mike.

In the cracks of eBay, labeled "case knife" complete luck finding it, $500 ouch

I only need the tiny hunter and baby Butterbean to finish the set.

It's been a rough week, found two pre ban Ivory case knives I couldn't pass on and a mammoth slimlock.

I've got a 3-1/4 inch #079 in my pocket right now - small MOP sleeveboard. Really nice thin knife to carry when wearing dress pants. Perfect "during the week" knife for me ... weekends is when the larger stockmen, jacks and Saddlehorn get the call ...


Question for the Case guys - did Case ever make that #079 pattern with conventional bone or stag sides ? I love the MOP, but can't find any reference to a model number with bone or stag to search eBay for one.
