Show me your River Boat Gambler (#89)

[addylo]

For some reason I'm very drawn to this pattern but I've seen very few mentioned here.

Anyone have one to show? What do you think about them?

I am drawn to this one as well!! I think I remember Boggs having some,

I have one and like it very much. The geometry of the long blade makes for easy opening even with a firm spring. The handles are beautiful red bone. And I like the combination of blades. Sorry I don't have a picture but it's like this one:

I would have preferred an Executive Whittler with the coping blade, but those are impossible to find with a main spear point, if they were ever produced.

The spear blade version is called a Melon Whittler - Google it.
