Any respect for the Case Russlock?

my sons russlock... like has been said earlier it's not for everybody but i think its a neat pattern, has the look of a friction folder

Not really my cup of tea. Always reminded me of Woody Woodpecker...whom I have never been a fan of.

I think "Pterodactyl" when I see one. I have one, just because I think they are an interesting piece of cutlery history. They certainly do work as intended, as a one handed opener. Aesthetics and ergonomics wasn't as important as function when it was designed. I can live with that.

I've never been able to connect with that knife on any level...

in my time on bladeforums this pattern probably elicits the most clear cut love it/hate it! responses... nothing wrong with that. to each his own
I will say that once open the ergos are fine for my hands (rather large) so its a decent usable size. I'd Love to pick up one in CV in the future:thumbup:
for me at least it's not a trapper
cheers

I always thought the opening "tail" on it gave it possibilities as a non-lethal SD impact weapon; which wasn't the reason I carried it, I just found it an interesting notion. To me it always made it look like a straight razor, which I rather like.

I suppose that I just had magical jeans when I used to carry it all the time, as I don't remember a pocket ever being worn through by it. I will admit, though, that once or twice it would end up in exactly the right position to discourage careless bending at the waist.
