All About Pocket Knives

I found two Remington Sowbelly in my collection this weekend. One is pocket worn and the other is pristine. I saw a couple other mentions of the Sowbelly and I wondered what people like about this knife.

What an awesome knife!! I love the crooked frame and the shield is really an eye catcher. You are a lucky man to have 2 of them.

What’s not to like? From the days when folks carried a knife to use it. Big enough to actually do serious work (more than cleaning fingernails and opening the mail!), with different blades for different jobs.

Like Ken said, a blade for every occasion. Love the hourglass shield too.

Wow, that one is a beauty!
I love the way a sowbelly knife feels in the hand when using it. It is very comfortable to hold and use.

Here’s what my second one looks like.

Another great looking knife.

That is a great looking knife. I have been bitten by the sowbelly bug having recently acquired my first one.

It's rarity.

Your sure fortune to have 2 of them. I would have given a thumb for one in worse shape when I used to chase remingtons. Very nice

Not for a knife but acouple of times whittling I almost gave a thumb.
