November 2023 Forum Members Giveaway

This month we have an extremely generous donation from third-time donor cbnutt (James Dickenson) who first donated in June 2013 and then again in June 2020 during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. James has really stepped up this time and decided to donate not one but two knives from his personal collection, both carried and used but in good shape!

First up is a Case #63032 Stockman in chestnut bone which is one of the most popular colors in Case history. This knife features a nickel silver Case oval script shield, clip, sheepfoot, and pen Chrome Vanadium (CV) steel blades, is 3-5/8" closed, and weighs just 2.5 oz.

The second knife is a Case XX Sodbuster Jr #25131 in mahogany bone with an Oval Brass XX Inlay shield. This knife utilizes a 2-7/8" Skinner blade. Stamped with pattern number 6137 CS, the blade material is carbon steel with a mirror-polished finish.

Good Luck!

Reverand's pick of 435 was 42 less than the winning lottery drawn last night but Scott was the closest without going over, congratulations! ::ds:: I guess the good karma from being the March 2023 giveaway donor is starting to be revealed. I know the Case 63032 stockman in chestnut bone and Case Sodbuster Jr . in mahogany bone are going to a good knife home. A PM has been sent to claim the prize. Congratulations! ::ds::

I arrived home late from work tonight, but had a wonderful surprise waiting for me!
James, your generosity in gifting these two knives has just blown me away - they are so beautiful!

I cannot stop coon-fingering these, the Sodbuster especially. I have an old Case Sodbuster (I used it to open the package!). I had gotten it used and knew that the blade was worn, but I had no idea how worn out my old one was until I compared it to this beauty!

I am about to post this again in the Mail Call thread.
Thank you again, Cbnutt! You have inspired me to do better in 2024 when I donate to the monthly giveaway.
