I owned one a few years ago but moved it on. I saw these being released with S35vn blade and thought of Tony, sad that he’s gone now so this will be a reminder to me of his contribution to the knife world.

Back spring is flush in all three positions, it needed sharpened but that went well and cuts very nicely now. Pull is about 5 not too bad

The knife came with a braided leather cord but a little shorter than I wanted so I used the clamp on Case clip on the paracord

Here's one I've had for awhile. I think it's 154CM. Shown with a Tribal Lock.

Gary.. Some years ago Case had an event and Tony was there.. I got to spend about an half hour talking to him. .Great guy.. I had the BP I got posted with me and Tony showed me his BP that he carried.. Kinda kool.. I got to handle it and it was a ton above what Case had!! He also had a wharncliff gent take he was delivering to a customer too.. WOW!! What a fine piece of cutlery that was..

Let me know when you're ready to move it along... :p
 
It’s funny you posted this. I pulled my backpocket knife out of the drawer and started carrying it again, just the other day! I got this one when they made the first runs of them a few years ago. I’ve used it to skin deer, rabbit, squirrel, clean fish and everything in between. I dropped it a few years ago and took a chunk of bone out of the handle. But I kept carrying it so my hand oils made it kind of blend in over time. It’s one of my favorite knives and have ALOT of knives! Too many! I know we all can relate.

Just finished up a slip sheath for this, while most will just put the knife next to their wallet but it is a bit smooth so this will help keep it in place while at the same time protect the knife too
