Thanks. Yep almost two years and it serves me well. I use it everyday. It might look small but it performs big. I know it is just a basic model and has delrin handles but it is a great knife and it is MY knife. My kids were so proud to present it to me on that Christmas day and I am just as proud to use it and show it off here on the porch.I love seeing that peanut pop up from time to timeTrapperMike
Hard to believe it's already been two years!
My small 2-3/4" traditional pocket knife.
Case 52033 SS, single spring pen knife.
Mark Side...
Pile side...
Comparison with GEC #15...
The current Case catalog shows a few of both in bone & stag, hope you find one they are great little knivesThat's really nice! I've never seen a '33 in bone -- being a small knife fan I went looking for either a 6233 or 6333 recently but all I could find was the brown synthetic, which I didn't care for.

Your right they always take notice when I use the peanut. My son often asks if I have been using it. I tell him it goes wherever I go and it cuts everything I want to cut. He now enjoys using a peanut That I gave him. It happens to be just like mine.If they were so proud that Christmas Day, think of the re-accuring pleasure they feel every tine they see you using that knife! It's always going to be daddies knife that they gave to you. Such a heritage is priceless.
Put a Victoinox quatro or Sear's 4-way keychain screw driver and a P-38 in your wallet and leave the SAK in the car glove box. The greatest honor to your children is to let them see how you' ve totally committed to the 'their' peanut they gifted you.

Totally outstanding father and son bonding over something. You're making something that will last a lifetime.
That's a five thumb up score!
Nicest #25 I've seen yet.

That's great. Kids really appreciate their parents actually using a well thought out gift. Your son should be using that peanut for years to come. I started with the little ones and then moved up in size as my hands grew larger. Now I'm a lot older and my blades have been getting smaller to reflect what I actually use them for. Seldom do any power cutting anymore that requires a full hand grip on a slippie.Your right they always take notice when I use the peanut. My son often asks if I have been using it.

It's a joy watching him use his peanut. He will whittle a bit and cut this and that. I really haven't had to give him to much instruction. It's like it came natural, here's a knife I need to cut something. Lol. Of course I know he has watched me. He likes to hang out with me in my shop when I am working.That's great.
