Any thoughts on the new sodbuster that case is releasing? Has amber jigged bone handles with a shield. I know a lot of folks have been wishing that case would bring out a bone handled soddie. The only down side is, I think they are just available in Tru-sharp.
 
I like the looks of em. I haven't got any quarrels with stainless in general, but find tru-sharp to be decent. Even at that, when it comes to Case, I really like it when I can treat myself to some CV. Heck I bet they could sell a more expensive Sodbuster, with stag handles, maybe in the "Rancher Stag" series paired with CV.
 
Case also bringing out some new stuff this year. Now I like the new looks of the handle material used in their carhartt lineup too. My local dealer said this is going to be a big year for case; introducing new handle material and patterns. He also stated that gec is making them step it up.
 
Man they have some nice looking knives coming out! I love the look of that bone Sodbuster Jr but dangit only the regular SB is CV, the Jr is SS! I still may have to have one, that bone looks good and that Granddaddy Barlow....sweet! But alas its SS too...:confused:

Found this pic on their website. Looks nice, but I'm not completely sold on it. My black Sodbuster Jr. came a bit rough from the factory and that's fine because it's supposed to. If they're gonna make it pretty with bone covers then I hope it has better finish.
 
I've never been a fan of the Amber bone. It's nice to see them coming out with more new stuff. If they offered the Sodbuster in Chestnut bone and CV, I would be all over that one...
 
Aw man..... why not in CV? I'll probably get one, I'm a big fan of the Sodbuster Jr. Still, wish it was CV.
 
I'd be all over it in CV. Glad they weren't tempted to put a bolster or two on it.

So true in every point of view, Owen.

I really like the look of it and a Case Soddie Jr. in Bone and (!!!) CV steel would make a pretty nice addition for the rotation.

Might be a nice project to swap a CV blade into one. :thumbup:

Alex, I agree. But on the pic posted above the pivot pin doesn´t seem to be a large/wide/broad than on the regular Case Soddies... But it would be interessting to see how it works... ;)
 
They're a penny shy of a 50-dollar bill. What's not to like? Yep, for now, they're only available in SS - works just as well as their CV. I haven't decided whether or not to pick one up. I've already got several Sod Busters. Still a nice knife all-in-all - worth thinking about.
 
I like the idea, but they must up the QC on a model like this, it aspires to be something more than the basic Sodbuster. I'm 50/50 on carbon or stainless.
 
I carry a sod buster as my edc. the amber bone is nice,but imo smooth bone or some type of wood handle would fit the bill a little better.
 
I like the idea of using bone for covers. I'm not really a fan of the shields on this and the CF version, though. Even if the purpose is to class up the pattern a bit, it just looks out of place to me.
