Some new knives for the collection.
Case in jigged Rosewood, very nice offering from Case.
Some new Eye Brand Sodbusters (99jr)
group shot of all Eye Brand/Olbetz made knives
A few knives generously gifted to me by DaveK14, a Coal Miner made in Germany and Two Bron Mules, one produced in Germany and one in Itlay.
Last but not least my newest beauty!! This one I'm pretty excited about. I have user Glenbad rehandle a Bullnose in Snake wood and it looks fantastic! Maybe GEC will see this and think they need to do a run of some wood handle Bullnoses

That snake wood is beautiful! I just got my first sodbuster not too long ago and I love the thing. I'll definitely be getting more.

You guys are true enablers. I have a drawer full of knives, two of them soddies already, and have another one on the way. This one will be a Sodbuster jr., though, and I don't have one of those.

Got my yellow Sodbuster jr. yesterday. I'm happy with it, and not nitpicking, but it wasn't sharp out of the box, the blade isn't centered when closed, and it has a bit of side to side play. All of that can be fixed, though. Just thought I'd report on what I found. Pics to follow when I get a minute.

I got a Carl Schlieper stag handled Sodbuster at our local show, but recently noticed a "Bump" on the back spring about 1/2 inch from the pivot pin. I figured out that it is there to contact the tang of the blade when closed, so the sharp edge does not hit the spring. I have a large and small, yellow handled Schlieper and neither of them have this nice feature. Does anyone else's Sodbuster have a bump on their back spring? John
