Case vs Buck Creek .

:D

Hey, I have enough trouble finding the TV remote control in the middle of the night, let alone a knife in my coverall pockets when working outside in a snow storm with my frozen fingers. :D

When you do find the one Perfect EDC, let me know or better yet start a thread. Because, there are a number of us BFC members who keep throwing our money at knives looking for the perfect knife.
But really, that is half the fun, isn't it. :D:):D

Ha! To be honest, I carry a Para 2, a customized carbon steel Opinel #8, and a Leatherman Wave in a pouch. So I'd venture to say the perfect EDC is however many knives you can comfortably carry!:D
 
Well i've read all these posts and i will buy a Case Trapper and then down the road a Case sodbuster. Thanks

A working man needs a knife he can open with gloves on, in some cases.

I think some are confused and im not only responding to you.

The OP asked for an opinion of a Traditional knife brand.

The Case knife I referred to is part of their "working mans series"

I was not implying these are suited for every modern working man ( or woman). The name and pattern refers to a style of knife used for years by working men.
I know the benefits of one handed openers, this working man owns about 100 of them....

Good choice... not to confuse you, but when you start shopping for a sod buster, check out the AG Russell Rancher and Cowboy knives. He designed a sod buster style knife with a wider blade.

* note.. not all Ranchers and Cowboys use these.

Actually, the Case knife you referred to has been around a long time. The Workman handle material seems to be a pretty recent addition, in 2010. And you did say "you can't get more of a working man's knife than that" to which I posed the problem with gloves, so...

...no need to get snarky. ;) I was simply providing a more useful alternative to what I consider beautiful but antiquated classics.

What I said was a pun on the name Case gave the series, I actully own one and I know the history of the slimline trapper. I forgot I wasn't posting in the Traditional Forum ;)

If the OP asked whether we thought Traditional knives were antiquated, I would have said yes they're only good for cutting things....

I agree, come on over to the traditional section. Plenty of men and women that have done a day or two of work with their knives.
