Case Sowbelly

This guy is smooth all the way through.

I really like the stockman version myself. It's beefy in hand, yet dissappear in the pocket. This is my first, but I got another one on the way.

I'm a fan of the Case Sowbelly in stockman trim. Got a nice older one in Midnight bone that I had Glenn modify: the original "Beerbelly."

That is freaking incredible!

Everytime I see one, I kind of wish I would have known about them before I got my medium stockman.

I really have to quit following these threads. I already have too many knives and then I see that clip blade and I'm like a kid in a candy store.

If you ever have the desire to add a second stockman, I think the sowbelly is the highest quality regular production knife Case makes.

Case sowbellies are great knives! Easy in the pocket and very comfy in the hand, Love 'em.

This is my CV Stag Rancher stockman... no half stops

and my SS oak stockman, also no half stops....it appears it's becoming unanimous....

I wish Case would make all of their sowbellies with the option of CV steel... I like the sycamore, but I would prefer CV. I bought my oak just because I got it at a good price, and it takes a really nice edge, as do most of their SS blades.

Here is one of my case sowbelly.it started out as a yellow Derlin cover in CV steel. Thanks to @jsdistin it now has OD canvas micarta covers with a bullet shield. It is in my pocket everyday and has no half stop

Many days in my pocket.

That Mod is awesome, Case should do that.

That’s one classy Sowbelly, the bullet shield is a nice touch

Nope! No halfstops.

I believe it is Red & Black fiber weave. The blades are CV. There are still some out there.

My favorite Case knife to date, F&F near perfect, only thing I did was take a little off the back of spey blade to make it a little more pointy. I really like the dye job on these covers as well.
