I just got my Case Sodbuster Jr Stainless black with some etching on the blade. CVost me $21. Ok, blade is not fully centered but no blade play and scary sharp out of the box. Feels good. Will not definately be my last sod buster. Will get more of them next year... I need to get one with yellow handles and carbon steel ^^
 
Got 4, all told.

2 Bokers, one yellow in carbon, one wood and stainless. The carbon one is my general EDC, and cuts exceptionally well. There's also a Case Jr. in stainless, taken to a near full flat grind on the belt grinder. Cuts like a demon.

Last is my father's 1970 Case, black in CV. Thick blade, sharp, snaps like a bear trap.
 
Funny I should run across this thread. I just found a yeller Jr. in Walmart parking lot. My son and I are going to rescue it.
 
The orange one is a Knutbuster made by Kerry Hampton in D2 Steele and Orange G10 scales
 
Just the two...given as I love this pattern I would think I would own a few more but the 1 dot Case has been in service for 20 years and has always down whatever I asked of it and the German Bull Stag was a Christmas present last year from my father. As I now have a full sized and a Jr what else could a man need?

Campbell,

Did you reprofile that Case? It's a bit pointier than other Case soddies. Looks like a useful modification.
 
Had this one since new. Skinned lots of elk deer and coyotes.Love this one.

I mostly use carbon steel Stockmans but i've been wanting a sodbuster for a while.
And the Sodbuster pattern is one of a few slipjoint types i don't have.
This video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnl3HFtWfjk also has me lusting after a lockback Sodbuster,lol.
I'll probably get a Case Cv Sodbuster Jr. eventually and/or a Boker Large Sodbuster.
The German Eye Sodbuster lockback in the video is sweet but i want to try something a little cheaper first.
Anybody try these cheaper Boker imports yet?
"BOKER PLUS SODBUSTER (lockback)"

Any feedback on that model?
I might try the above Boker import lockback first just to see if i'm meant to be a Sodbuster guy.
 
This is not my knife and now my friend thinks I'm strange for wanting to take some pics of it but he did oblige! Just the other day he takes this thing out of his pocket and cuts some wire....I said hey, hold on, let me see that sod buster! He said he has had the knife at least 20 years. He carries it and uses it all the time. Its a Case XX five dot. I just thought some of you would appreciate it as much as I did. Pretty cool stuff!

Time for him to get another one. ;)
