  • Today marks the 24th anniversary of 9/11. I pray that this nation does not forget the loss of lives from this horrible event. Yesterday conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was murdered, and I worry about what is to come. Please love one another and your family in these trying times - Spark

Let's see your Traditional Case knives, old to new.

bigfish64 bigfish64 I think you were interested in the Richlite when it arrived?

Case Tear Drop in Richlite. Unique-looking handle material. Smooth, but not slippery. F&F is good except slight daylight between liners and spring, and a very slight blade play. W&T is about middle of the road with the other Tear Drops I have, smooth but not overly snappy. Another "not perfect but very nice" knife from Case. Happy Camper.

Beautiful Gus, that’s better than a lot of Bone Stag I’ve seen. 😎👍
I know I do, and that one is fantastic! 😎👍

Yes I was Gordon, that Richlite has a lot of “grain” to it. Very unique stuff, looks like you got another good one! 😎👍

It reminds me of the "camo" micarta on my old Al Mar SERE folder from the late '80s. The Tear Drop patterning is more random, and more matte. Both have the same smooth but not slippery feel.
 
Looking good Ed! 😎👍 Did you pick up any of those Case made Zippo knives?
Thanks my friend ! I actually haven’t believe it or not lol.
I’ve got to a point that I’ve forgot about knives I really like hidden away in the toy box😁 So now I’m just trying to enjoy the ones I have but we will see how long and how much my will power can endure lol.
