That is a stunning knife! Just beautiful. I don't understand the cattle knife connection. Cattle knives don't have serpentine frames. They just don't. But wow! That's a beauty! Oops! I was trying to quote on the Kroo but I dropped the ball. Sorry.

Here’s some pics of this K’roo, Keen Kutter/Diamond Edge Cattle Knife Tribute. I was thinking of a spear main which would have made it more cattle knife and less of a stockman but I have a spear on my Ritchie Cattle Punch. And I liked the punch on that one enough I got one on this one. And a coping blade too. I like horn so Willem put on some Blesbuck Horn. I know Willem likes this frame. Me too.

Thanks. I like the Blesbuck. Shapleigh Diamond Edge Cattle Knife had that frame but with a spear. But they also had the usual frame. I’ve seen Bose Cattle Knives also with a spear and same frame. I read he liked a clip better. And here comes the Case/Bose Cattle Knife. There are a few pages about this all somewhere in this great thread. Someone said it’s a Cattle Knife in name only. Stockman. I think so. When I see that frame I think of Diamond Edge Cattle Knife though. But I get stuff wrong often especially when I think I know something. I might be less reliable than AI.

So I mentioned my Richie Cattle Punch knife. Same DE frame with a spear and a punch. Glad you like the K’roo.
