Here are a couple of recent acquisitions - Sowbelly cousins; one yeller Jack and one Camo Kirinite Stockman.

I bought to carry, thought otherwise once in hand lol

Usually I post antiques, but I love this newer Case, a gift from our friend Leslie Tomville!!
It has a lot of things a traditional Barlow should usually have; stamped bolster, bone (nice) handles, pen blade - the list goes on!!
Thanks Greg!!

I've went from carrying traditional knives, to carrying modern knives, and now back to traditional knives again.
When I was a kid, it was nothing but Schrade Jacks and Stockmans. Then I started working ranches and competing in rodeos, it was all modern one-hand opening knives because that's what was needed. Then as I got older and life settled down, I came back to traditional knives for the simplicity and nostalgia. The Yellow Case Trapper is what lured me back...

My only Case knives - they are quite expensive in the UK!

Case 61405 Damascus lockback

Red says Case!! Not their only color by any stretch, but they often try for the older (banned!) Redbone!! Not the same, but not bad!!! 1987 I think!!

 

[Ironbut]

Somebody mention RED?

A new one

And an old one

 

[waynorth]

Nice Red un's @Ironbut!!!
There's nuthin' like a Redbone, "Souped-up", 10 Dot Case, Low-mileage Case Barlow!!!
Unless it's given by a friend!!! Then it's even better!!!
Thanks so much Greg!!! @Leslie Tomville !!!

(Please excuse my scanner's scratches! She's gettin' pretty old!)

My newest Case, just arrived in the mail yesterday. A Wharncliffe Mini Trapper with random pattern carbon damascus blades. Model 6207W DAM from 2016. 1 of 500 which is very low production for a current production Case.

That's a looker, Ron; great bone and blades!

Not sure if I posted this amber Jigged Texas jack when I got it back in January, but I've since modified the abnormal pen blade into a clip and have used it quite a bit.
The patina is coming along nicely and with the decision to keep in in my pocket through the rest of the year it should get even better.

It sure is a great knife, if it had a normal pen blade is have left it alone but I do quite like it with my clip point modification.
