I rest my Case (lockbacks, that is!)

I really like that black handled one in the OP! Good looking knife! I'm also interested in the mini-copperlock. That could be a real nice one.

Here's a Vintage Stag Copperlock.

I enjoy the mini and full size copperlocks quite a bit. Here is a thread I started a couple Christmases ago. I ended up doing three of these, the one that ended up being mine was gifted to good ol' Gary Graley for helping me out with a knife.

Indeed you did and she rides with me most days, I gave the bolsters a brushed finish which is a little easier to maintain, but she be sharp!

I found this one today in an antique store.

Gary, what did you use to get the brushed finish? I really like that. I have been getting a lot of the Carhartt branded patterns because I like the as ground blade and the brushed bolsters. I would prefer to have a Case badge on my Case knives though. I have a caramel bone trapper with the as ground blade, which is nice. Even if the color is more red than brown...

Thanks, just used a small thumb sized piece of fine sand paper, about 1000 grit or so and just rubbed straight from bone to end, keeping it straight as you can.

More nice Case LBs!

Woodrow F., you have a good eye---the black 21051 in my OP really is nice. I wasn't familiar with the model till I saw a pic somewhere online and then hunted one down!

BTM, I like your sig line.:thumbup: ("Few friends better than a good dog and a good knife.")
