Nice lineup! I didn’t know that Cold Steel ever made a folding hunter pattern knife.

Winterbottom jigged delrin. Top one is a Queen. Bottom is an S&M

A Schrade 804 whittler, 1960's or so.

Cold Steel made a whole line of slip joints.
Well, as we know, CS didn’t actually make stuff, they branded it.
The SJ line was, IIRC, made by Camillus (as was much of their line) in Carbon V steel whose alpha-numeric name I’m no longer sure of. 0176-C?

Thank you for the info. I actually have the Carbon V Stockman, but didn’t realize that there were other patterns. My stockman is a very solid example.

Traditional plastic friends... Trying to decide on a Stockman 47 pattern that's going be a user. Looking for an inexpensive version of my favorite stockman, and came up with these.

White smooth synthetic with the stars/stripes shield, or the red G-10... Both stainless.

I have a couple yellow synthetics and I like them well enough, but not married to them. I do like the shield on the white one.

G10 probably feels better in the hand, but do I need another red knife? lol....

Any input either way? Especially if you have the red G-10 handles on anything. Thanks!

The prevailing "Wisdom" here will no doubt say: "Get both!"

Personally, I'd go with the white one. The red is "too red" for my "taste" ... or lack thereof.

And how about the original, some old celluloid.
