Thank you! These are great jackknIves - the two essential blades (for my use) in a Medium Stockman frame. Both blades are straight because its not necessary to krink them as would be done adding the third blade. You can find them in this finish and in the open stock finish. OH

The Wrangler has been with me (on and off) since this thread last saw the light of day - Saturday's carry - opened a package of bacon and has been cutting packing tape as we prepare to move. OH

This model has been on the top of my list forever. By far my favorite knife I don’t have. This paired with the Blazer is a pair made in heaven.

I’m still looking for both on the big bay but there is a shortage of sellers willing to send over the pond. One day though!
 
Moving into another home, so I'm building shelving in the garage and shed and improving workbenches in the garage that had already been installed by a previous owner. My 12v DeWalt driver/drill has weakened to the point it will not drive a 3" deck screw into treated yellow pine and struggles with SPF grade framing lumber. I got a new 20v DeWalt for Father's Day, put it through some paces today - wow it has some torque - used my Schrade 93OT to open the packages and trim splinters, etc. OH

Man, moving is a LOT of work! Good way to downsize out of “stuff” that we can’t bear to toss out, but never use.
I’d offer to help, Bruce, but you’re a long drive from here.

Great condition on this antique!

Schrade nade Craftsman (I hope you don’t mind me posting it here, Modoc ED Modoc ED , but I love my Crafstman knive made for them by Camillus and Schrade)
The Schrade 165 Woodsman was always on my want list. I have their other big belt knife, the Deerslayer, so not counting any they, or Camillus made for the military, these two are their biggest, I think.

This year’s Badger Blade Show in Wisconsin, it was the first knife I inspected at the first booth inside the door. The guy’s name is Mike, and he had to “pay his dues”, and bide his time to get that spot for his tables. He always has tons of old knives, and he is not a dreaded Fluffer ‘n Buffer. His knives are not always cleaned and polished~ he leaves that to the buyers if they so choose.
He has gotten most of my little Knife Show budget in the past several years.
I picked it up, recognizing what it was by the shape of the sheath. I did look at the rest of his booth, but did not move on til I’d given him my $60.
I’ts been my car knife, jammed down between the driver’s seat and console, but I think I’ll put the Buck back in the car, and the Woodsman on my belt.84ED1956-29F4-417B-8B55-4CCC7C3F6256.jpeg
