Let's See Your Most Stylish Stockman!

[Augie]

This stag Case is my favorite, just the overall aesthetics are so visually appealing to my eyes.

 

[Jolipapa]

Queen for Winchester. So sleek.

black mamba That black widow is awesome, can you tell me who made it?

Good call on the Dixies, very stylish. Charlie, I can see you are "awl in" with that deeply saturated red bone!
Tim, I love that CC, uniquely stylish for sure. And Ed, I'm envious of those gnarly German stags with my favorite acorn shield.
Thanks to all for participating, you can never have or behold too many stockman. A bonus pic of my favorite Delrin stockman,
a mint Camillus #89 from the mid '70s.

One of mine also. Great pic!

Got to agree with Augie, my absolute favorite stockman is this 65-69 Case Stag 087. It has the most amazing walk & talk for a 50+ year old knife.

One of my most stylish in my opinion is a Queen or S&M Reverse Gunstock. This one is a Rigid that I think was made by Canal Street using S&M components.
Followed by a Queen #9 in what I would call red Winter Bottom bone. Then a small Henklels. Camillus Sword Brand on the bottom.

Well, if stylish is what we're going for, this Oeser is only missing a cummerbund...(the rest speaks for itself, imho).

That’s a beauty Blues , love Jared’s traditional knives, wish he still did the occasional run of them.

Case 75

Case 75

One of my favorite patterns.

 

[JC972]

Not real stylish but one I’ve had a long time. 7 dot Case. I spent a lot of hours on cold winter evenings sitting on my bed and sharpening this while listening to classic rock. It’s almost embarrassing to see how I scratched it while still learning sharpening as a 14/15 year old. Very good W/T and smooth pulls. Case could’ve modeled their Pocket Worn line after this one!

 

[JC972]

Looking much better and many more years of sharpening experience later… Father’s Day gift from my daughter when she was 2.

I only own two stockman.

The GEC 81. One of my very favorite knives. I like every thing in this knife. A pleasure to use.

The GEC 66. Though it's a bit small for my hand i often find myself using it for thorough works.

Dan.

Tremendous knife that 81 you show Dan Osage Orange? You might like to try out a Böker Germany Large Stockman too. I think they have some wooden versions, not sure.

Thanks, Will

Yes Will, osage orange. I've an eye, since a good while, on the Boker Germany knives. As American brands are now hard to get, this might be a good alternative. Thanks for the advice.

Dan.

I suppose this is my most stylish:

But this has to be my most stylish Delrin stockman:

 

[black mamba]

WOW, Elliot, I didn't remember that one, simply gorgeous! Neal, that Rigid is awesome, and nmcbride, the Black Widow was a Frank Buster Fight'n Rooster prototype from 1978. Will, I dig the deep "bear claw" jigging on the Boker. Another favorite, this jumbo S&M with the killer pen third blade. This knife has the strongest pulls that I still consider to be smooth, a marvel of tight fitment.

Ever since I got my Case 6332, I've had my eye out for more reverse gunstock patterns. This S&M is near the top of my list. A little bigger than I'd like, but a fabulous looking knife nevertheless!!

I don’t know about stylish, but this Bulldog is one of my favorite pocket knives. I bought it back around 2010 and it went straight into the pocket. For several years it seemed like it was about the only knife I carried.

I like the stag, the long pull on the main blade, the swedge on the main blade. It takes a good edge and is easy to resharpen. It cleans up pretty good. Back in 2010 I was on a camping/survival class and it poured for several days. The blades rusted from being in my wet pocket. But they cleaned right up.

Last picture is pile side. Sorry for all the pictures but I do like this one.

Wow! Can you tell me about this one?

 

[pistonsandgears]

I guess I'd have to go with this Case/Bose for most stylish

This old Buffalo/Shapleigh isn't bad either
