I'm not a huge fan of Ebony, but that collection is pretty sweet.

I get that. I am thinking of maybe looking for at least one or two in brown or chestnut. I sometimes wonder if I should have mixed it up a bit

Nothing wrong with Ebony IMHO, I think I have 4 or 5 traditionals with Ebony, just not high on my preference list.

It does make for a cohesive theme, and easier than tracking down all the things for a complete collection...

As large as the Old Dog is, I have to say that I’m really enjoying carrying this and love how good the handle feels. I especially like the fact there is no half stop on this, it makes deploying and folding the blade a real treat. I do wish it was 4 instead of 5 inches but never the less I’m enjoying using this a lot. I think I’m beginning to prefer single blades over multiple. Going to have to add a Wilfred lock at some point And a tribal spear if I can find one.

Do any of you own every issue of the Case Tony Bose Collaborations? If so that would be quire the collection that I’m sure we’d love to see in one glorious picture. I do not aspire to collect them all but there are still a few more on my bucket list.

I like it, how’s the pull?

Pull is very smooth and a bit light. No half stop which really works well on this.

I haven't bought a Case in awhile. Just curious what folks think. In your opinion, are Case in house made knives better quality than the ones they have made for them? I know the Classics were made by Queen in the day and are pretty sought after. But recently, it seems they are hit and miss and I was wondering which ones are in house vs outsourced.

Love the Case Bose Coffin Jack. Wish more companies did this pattern. I did pick up a Winchester Black Box version (2921), which is pretty sweet. This Case version is never far from my rotation.

I don’t believe Case outsources their product. The Queen made Classics I think were 30 years aago.

I heard that Blue Grass was making quite a few. But finding any info is virtually impossible.

Nice! You don’t see those lockback whittlers often. How do you like it?

I really like it, it’s has a bit more heft than I realized but in a good way. I love the wharncliff main,

They are great. Lock up is like a vault.

Definitely at the top of my list to get my hands on. Would love the V1 over V2 but either would do. Beautiful bone on that one!
