For about a year now I have acquired all these knives. The buck stockman was given to me by my grandfather. And my deceased grandfather gave my dad the camp knife and the single blade peanut knife, he gave them to me as he could care less about them. Out of all of these I'd have to say the Medium Texas Jack is my favorite. Thanks for looking guys.

Nice spread of knives there, blazerman! I really like that single blade peanut. Hammer brand, by any chance?
 
Nice collection. I recently aquired a Buck 703 stockman like the one you have (even missing the shield). The sheepsfoot blade on mine is the thinnest blade of any knife I have, almost as thin as my Henkels straight razor, and almost as sharp, too! That thing scares me, but it sure cuts nice, although the springs are a bit weak.

Thanks for sharing!
 
Looks good, you've got an eye for knives especially older knives. I really dig the Amber bone CV jack knife it looks great with a very good patina, pretty cool for a newer knife.

Actually I've been told that that knife is a piece of junk lol. It says STAG and Ireland on it. It was my grandfathers that I never knew so that'll always be a keeper. However I really do not know much about it.

It's hard to keep that one outta my pocket. The point on that knife is the sharpest I've ever seen. It's a great knife really, and it's one of the more carried ones.

That knife is absolutely perfect. It feels like it's custom built for me. It's between that and the peanut for my most carried knife.
 
Good start, I like the looks of that Texas Jack the most, too. Which one of these was your first knife? Mine happened to be a Buck 110 about ten years ago.
 
Well, nice knives at all! It´s a good collection for the beginning, but not for a beginner, I think. If you were a beginner you would have bought some cheap, blackcoated and cool looking tacticals ;) ;)

But that´s a quiete qualitive collection. I also would like that Texas Jack. :)

Kind regards!

I believe that Buck stockman was my first. My grandfather gave it to me and it was carried quite frequently when I was younger.
 
Nice collection!
I just got a yellow Peanut, what a great little knife. Before I started hanging around here a pocket knife had to be at least 3 1/2, ever since I bought my first Peanut I've fallen in love with knives <3" and I'm on my 4th Peanut now :D
 
You have an excellent start with all a few of the great ones.
A nice Buck 110 and a 302, a Case Peanut and Sodbuster. I think your collection is starting off strong.

I see a love for yellow, maybe you should get a GEC with Yellow Rose scales, very pretty. :thumbup:
 
A very wise start! The path to greatness beckons...

Three knives there I particularly like: CASE TJ, CASE Slimline Trapper and the Buck. All authentic and good to use patterns, you show promise:D
 
I love Case Slimline Trappers in yellow(I have 2). I have just about worn/sharpened out my first one (it is 36 years young) I only occasionally use the new one. It's long but just the right size and shape for everything. Nice collection overall! :cool:
