Anyone get their Norfolk yet?

I'd like to know as well. Would appreciate a proper photo as I can't decide between Chestnut Bone and Antique Bone. Thought it was going to be out in June, now it's August....

I don't have one yet. But on a side note the Chestnuts are great lookers.
 
They are starting to show on evil-bay.:thumbup:
 
I'm rather surprised that nobody seems to have got hold of one yet.

Usually, the collab knives generate a lot of interest and pictures,has there been some kind of delay?:eek:
 
I can't believe one has not popped up here. It looks real nice. I was just looking at one in the Shepared hills catalog. (sweet catalog too!)
 
Arrangements have been made. There will most likely be an ebony in my future. I will most certainly show it off when I get it.
 
I was fondling one at the Blade show and I was thinking to myself that I had to have one....then I saw the price tag.....I pass.

A buddy of mine over at Case Collectors forum has his posted.....NICE!!:thumbup:
 
I'm awaiting an ebony Norfolk myself. Last I checked Case was behind on the anticipated delivery, but I'm told I'm right near the top so I'll definately get one. Cool.
 
I'm sure we'll hear about it when they begin showing up.
 
I managed to snag one in bone (not from the usual source) and I love it. They did a great job putting both blades in a slim package. Lot of swedge work too keep the blades from rubbing.

Still waiting on the package deal for the usual suspects. ;).

I'll get pics up once the rain stops and I get a chance to breath. This new business is a little time consuming to say the least. Have not even had time to get to know the knife better yet. :).
 
Looking forward to those pix Gus, when you've the time.
Still can't make up my mind between Antique or Chestnut Bone....
 
It has been raining and gloomy all week here so I shot some lousier than usual pics inside.

One of these days I will take a few hours off and build a lightbox.

Might just be the nicest of all the Case Bose collaborations. Lots of detail went into to this. I think it is also the first one with blade steel of 154 CM. All the rest were in ATS-34 unless I have lost my mind.

Anyway. The swedges on the Norfolk are pretty darn deep, sweet and crisp. The pen blade is very cool. And the main blade is well done also.

I have not carried it yet, but I think it will end up finding it's way into my pocket soon. It is a one back spring pattern and neither blade has much wiggle room when they are folded. Mine nest in their resting spots quite well and open without rub. Nice job on a narrow knife.

I believe last yrs, the '08 Arkansas Hunter was the 1st one in 154CM, but regardless, the Norfolk is really a nice looking pattern & I really like the Wharncliffe main blade. Very nice.
 
Youch! That's a pretty little thing. Pretty slick how tightly those blades are nested without touching. That can't be easy to do. I can't look at or think about that thing much longer, or I'm going to end up with one.

Congrats on your score Bastid! You have some nice knives, sir.
