SODBUSTERS... bust 'em out, work 'em hard and show 'em off

[DaveHS]

When did Case make a sodbuster with crosscut micarta scales?

This is an old Soddy jr, customized.

Good catch! I saw the liner and assumed it was a Crossroads model, but it now it looks like custom scales.

Correct! A skilled buddy named Josh Francis recovered all these in micarta for me. Had to lose the bolsters on the trapper!

I know this is an old thread but as a retired Builder Chief Petty Officer I was wondering if that awesome USN Case knife was a regular production run and if so what year? Thanks!

Carbon steel, "honey" G10, vintage ivory micarta, and vintage Westinghouse liners. 6-7 pull, dead-center, stupid snappy action with a stout half-stop?! Pfft!Gimme dat!

One of the first knives I bought that I still use. I’ve been carrying this sodbuster JR the last few days since I made this sheath for it. To me it’s a lot more comfortable than having it in my pocket.

Here's mine. I love these Crossroads sodbusters.
