I'm in love with a PIG!

Thank you Elliott.
Very sweet pattern to look at. Are those big and hewy knifes. I starting to like jigged bone the more I see of it here on traditional forums and those were outstanding jiggingpatterns. Thank you for taking the time to post them open.

No, not particularly big or heavy. About 3.75" closed. About 3+ ounces in weight.

You're very welcome.
 
I have one that I have been carrying every day for about six months. I think this has got to be the best knife that Case makes.

Which one? The stag or the bone?

Thanks for the good words. (I hope your kids aren't reading over your shoulder. :p)

I like the Stag whittler, but the bone has the better pattern, and blade size/selection/placement IMHO.
 
I LIKE that Bose, the jigging on that is masterclass stuff.

I don't own a Sowbelly but now I'm inspired to look into the pattern. Might start with a RR cheapie to experiment as I rate their old yellow handle series.
 
Thanks, Puukkoman. Now I've seen the ball in the cage, and you're right. That is cool.

vielen dank

I just got my Case black bone Sowbelly! It is a tall knife. The blades are tall and the handle is tall. It's a big ole pig!

I don't know if it is the curvy handle or what, but for such a big knife it doesn't carry too bad. Or maybe I am just getting used to carrying a bigger knife.

It feels great in the hand. About 5 minutes on the sharpmaker and these true sharp blades are as sharp as any I have witnessed. I've got zdp, and s30v, and d2 and all that.

I've been using it at work (electrician) and it seems to be holding up great.

I know you all need some pictures, I'll try to get my butt in gear on that!

Who else has and loves a Sowbelly? It's ok speak up and don't be ashamed!

Slimshaneee,

I forgot I had this, I found it mixed in with my chamfer planes. I remember getting it from SMKW almost 15 years ago. Its a Case Sowbelly I got because I wanted to do some carving. I liked the grey bone the best. I EDC for awhile, then it has been idle since I found it this afternoon. Nice find dont you think ?

Nice! That's better than finding a wad of dollars in an old coat pocket.;)
