There it is. No reason to ever buy another knife. Perfection.

I’m carrying this one today. Courtesy of a very generous GAW by R rishma and a thoughtful nomination by 315

Thanks men.

Very nice knife. Great size and the build quality rivals anything I have. Simply thrilled.

Top stuff! Superfine jigging.

I pulled this monster out today.

Unless you have steel fingernails... Its not going to get much use. Almost need a sling to carry it.

Need something for scale

How big is it?

Need something for scale

How big is it?

It's 4 7/8" closed. It is a bit comically oversized for a stockman, in my opinion anyways!

Regular 3 7/8" Camillus, Case 4 1/4 large stockman, 4 7/8 IXL Schrade and an old really abused Buck 110

Whoa! That's a big one alright Reminds me of the Remington R4243 camp knife.
With a Buck 110:

Nifty! Just a little larger than the Schrade Old Timer 858OT Lunberjack Stockman. (4 5/8 inch closed.) A real beauty you have there.
I wonder if all of the IXL's require a steel fingernail or other tool to open it.
Makes me cautions to seek one out. I have never seen any sense in fighting my knife to open it, or to carry a tool to get it open.

I certainly can’t argue with that, I take it you are looking yours as well.

Yes it's just a bit bigger in every dimension from the lumberjack. All of the blades are wider and longer. It's overall a bit thicker and longer.


The pull is getting better. I've oiled it a couple times and have been fiddling with it all day today. When it got here a little while back, I don't think anyone had ever really taken it out of the box. It was just stuck in the same half-open position for years and years. The sharp nail nicks don't really help, though. Still, it's not convenient to open.

Mine is no more difficult to open than this similarly sized Case whitler. I like mine just as it is. T-A

I have been enjoying carrying this Case/Bose from 2015 since Thursday. I think this knife was happy to get out of the box finally. Happy Sunday to you.

Beautiful example, I'm glad it's free from its box but my Envyometer is off the scale

Thanks, Will
