I've seen folks mention the White Owl, but I don't think I've seen one, or if I did, I didn't make the connection. I didn't realize it's that similar in size to the Churchill. What frame is the White Owl on and what's the secondary blade, if you don't mind me asking? Because I'm sitting here, looking at my Churchill and wondering if it's too soon to start hoping for a Churchill with a spear point and it turns out it might already exist. :)

Don't mind a bit AlwaysTomboy.:) The White Owl is built on the 68 frame, it is a single spring and has either a spear or clip main with a pen secondary. At 3 1/2 inches closed (1/4 inch shorter that the Churchill) it feels substantially smaller to me than the Churchill and other medium size knives. I don't think it's too early to start hoping for a Churchill with a spear main especially since White Owls (from what I've heard) are nearly as rare as hens teeth :eek::). Hope this helps. :thumbsup:
 
Thanks kindly. *tips hat* Spear main and pen secondary seems kind of redundant, maybe? Probably not; I'm just not used to multi blade knives. I dig the idea of a spear main, coping or sheepsfoot secondary, though. Thanks again. :)
 
I like the 83 pattern, lockbacks should never be too big or they're no longer pocket knives, who wants a folder in a sheath or a paving stone in your pocket? Not me anyway!

That particular one is exceptional:thumbsup: Bear me in mind if you feel compelled to rid yourself of it;)

Thanks, Will
 
Thanks Will! I agree with your assessment of lock-backs. I have a couple that are an integral part of a certain brand I previously collected but they never get carried (being far to heavy). If ever I choose to let an 83 go I would certainly contact you first my friend.:thumbsup:

hamsco hamsco - The 55 was my first GEC and of course it's one of my favorites. For some reason my camera doesn't photograph the red bone well (???) so I have never been able to get a good picture of mine. :(
Which is probably why I so appreciate this post of yours, it perfectly captures the rich color of a beautiful knife... (love the arrowhead too). Great Photo hamsco !!!

Here's a cousin to the 55, Dogleg Jack
