How about this, nothing to crazy from me this time.
This pattern would be at home lending a Hand to a cowboy or a rancher.
For Will Power:
This knife too has an equine affiliation.
Sorry folks, but no go...
How about a clue or two.
This pattern doesn't get the attention it deserves.
It has a rather shapely bottom.
That's a Bingo!
I would like to see a head to head, best user type test between a sowbelly and a saddlehorn...
Maybe once I have both I can make that happen...
Equine, horse.
Bovine...cattle.

Sometimes things just slip your mind.
Ha! Wait until you're 64; then you say, "Sometimes things just stay in my mind" because that's the uncommon occurrence!
OK, sorry I had to work late after guessing NJBillK's last one correctly. Here's my new (and kind of lame) puzzle:
This small (2 3/4" closed) serpentine single-bladed (clip) linerlock is now made in China. Whenever I hear/read the model name, the first line of an old song goes through my mind: "Here I come to save the day..."

redsparrow, that's pretty amazing that you have the answer but can't fill in that last blank!!Wow GT, talk about memory fade... I have a Schrade with liner lock and can only remember "Mighty______ . Oh well hope that helps someone else.![]()
Not an Imperial; as revealed above, it's a Schrade, another once-USA-now-Chinese-Taylor-owned brand. Since redsparrow has given us Mighty ____, I can probably say that the song reference is to one of my favorite Saturday morning TV cartoon shows 55 years ago, "Mighty Mouse".I've seen the knife in smkw, and I know that's it's an imperial peanut with cracked ice handles but have no clue what the song reference is.
redsparrow, that's pretty amazing that you have the answer but can't fill in that last blank!!So the puzzle has changed to a "fill in redsparrow's blank" contest!- GT
Do (did) you like your Mighty Mite? I'm quite impressed with mine. I'll insert a photo of it here:

So your riddle just requires us to fill in two blanks? The correct answer will be "blankety blank jack" where the first blank is a nationality and the second blank is a body of water? For example, Mexican Mudpuddle Jack. (I doubt if that's correct, but let's say that's my first guess.)
- GT
Indian Ocean jack
American river jack
