2 Finn.
1965-1980, by the tang stamp. I don't know when they discontinued the 2 Finn.

This one is a Classic, I think??!!

Wow I feel stupid. Until the last two post I never realized the whittler was built on the 47 frame. I’m not sure why I guess I just never gave them much of a look.

The whittler has been built on almost every frame/pattern you can think of!!
Equal End, Serpentine, Sleeveboard, Wharncliffe - - -on and on!!!

I have a delrin sodbuster jr. And I do love it, but boy is it thick. A work knife for sure. Not that the bone variants aren't work knives. The patina on yours proves that! I just think I would carry mine more if it were a little thinner and disappeared in the pocket a little more.

It's a good backup knife or for going out on the town (here we're more and more controlled and it's a fine and a criminal record if you're caught with a knife).

I'd like it to have a cm longer blade so I can use it more often. But it's very beautiful, the color of the stained bone is subtle and changes according to the light.

But we all have enough knives in our drawers to find the right one when we need it.

that's a cool color with nice deep green dye, but is the blade modified on one of them.

I like mine. It's my newest Case with patina just starting. But I have XXL hands. I'm used to carrying knives that size or sometimes a little bigger, like my old peckerwood friend (Copperhead). And it's much the same size as the SAK Spartan that's in my other pocket right now.

If you want something that will disappear in your pocket, I'm going to recommend slim trapper. Another dandy if you ask me.
