What are your favorite sodbusters? I'm assuming there will be plenty of yellow handled Case sodbusters, but along with the Case, what are your favorite brands?
 
I only started with the Sodbusters. I am sure with the "OCD" I have, I will end up with a multitude of colors and brands. There are some "Queen" I believe with Red and Green and I think Blue scales. I would like to have some of those. I just stated that I will be asking Mr. K R Johnson to build me one of his Beautiful Custom Sods!!! But for now this is what I have...

A German Eye and a Casexx Jr. w/CV Blade...
This German Eye with Solingen Steel is a Cutting Machine!!! I don't know what I like better, Cutting with it or Sharpening it? It takes an edge so well!!!

Hm, I like the color on the German Eye more than some of the other yellow delrin handles. I think I'm going to go ahead and order one as my first sodbuster.
 
Brutus, just so you know, (fwiw) the Boker color is a pale yellow and not that bright cartoon color as indicated in the image above (which was copied off a vendor site).
 
I carry a yelow handle CV Case or black handle SS Case every single day. I have for years. My favorite pattern.
 
I have had one or the other in my pocket since I got them. I can't say enough good things about these knives...
 
I alternate with the Case 2138 and the German Eye-Brand cs. ;)
Nice Soddies, everyone!

Sodbusters are handsome knives. But what makes a knife a sodbuster. Is it just the absence of metal bolsters? I dont know if bolsters is the proper terminology.
 
Is there a such a thing as a fixed blade soddie. I was handling my case (black) and i thought it would make a sweet fixed blade hmmm i might just have to do that...
 
I like the Eye Brand sodbusters. The small one is available in both yellow composition and dark wood (I have both) and the large one is available in yellow composition and stag (I have the stag version with the saw).
 
I only own a yellow Case Soddi Jr with a CV blade, but I love it. It has an amazing snap to it, moreso than some if it's more expensive brothers and sisters.

Elliott - I really like that Queen Soddie you've got there, what is your opinion of it?
