My pleasure Ray, love all the 15 cap lifters. Posted these before someplace on BF … the lifter on the 2013 Boys Radio Knife is my favorite as it has a longer cut out for opener than the 2014 Radio Jack/Crown Lifters, 2015/2016 Beer Scouts or 2016 Crown Lifters which places pry point at rim of bottle, not over bottle mouth. This allows for a cleaner lifting of cap (less bending of cap). Good luck in your hunt!9EE21D7C-8E19-4A63-B9B6-65002087E989.jpegF7C22D70-BAB0-450C-9D9D-DD77B9B07E80.jpeg

but for safety it is better if the pry point is not on the edge of the cap, above the glass.
this would make it easier for the glass to break.

Here are a couple of new arrivals.

I'm partial to GEC's India Jigged Bone, so it's nice to see this red variation on an H30...

And, here is an H40 in "Ocean Blue" Jigged Bone. Honestly, it could just as easily have been called "Turquoise" Jigged Bone -- just a gorgeous shade of blue...

Another vote for the Spring Street #86 Barlow. That is just a perfect knife to me. I'm a huge fan of the #86 pattern in general, and that one's one of the best!

probably gotta be one of my favorite releases in the last three years. managed to add more of them than 77s.
 
What do you think the longest missing pattern number is?
For instance, I don't think they've run a #76 pattern in like nine years. Anything longer than that?

A #55 maybe? I wanted to say French Kate, but website says they were in 15 last time.

Talking about which, I always wanted to know why are those two both in the same pic? Was that a set like two-in-one-tube?

these models you guys mention are certainly nice, but they are niche. theyre not like the bread and butter models like the 15s, which are perennial favorites. They can make those for months and we'd never still get enough of them.

That's true. But I personally would prefer them to Coon Skinner, or that 88 novelty thing (yeah, right). Especially a 26 or a 45.
 
I wouldn't mind a #45 roughneck. I use a pipe wrench daily and feel like I need a pipe wrench shield lol. I know it probably would be hideous to some, but I've always thought the oilfield jack should've gotten that shield
