The two blades with the single spring on a pattern that’s comparable in size to a 86/93/47 is a real joy for me. I love slim knives and single blades usually so this fits right in and it’s great to have that extra blade!

What I enjoy most on this knife though has to be the fact that it doesn’t have a half stop. It’s a joy to use and very fun indeed and my KOTY for so many more reasons!! 😃🤝

No etch!

It's a catch 22, hate to see it disappear but love to see some patina/

It's my knife of the year at the moment. The only thing that could possibly knock it off would be a lamb...maybe with some kind of flat cap like jigging :D

I’ve temporary stopped cutting fruit with mine cause I’m not ready to let go of the patina yet 😆

I’ve been hearing talk of the mythical Charlie Lambs making a comeback!
The 93 pattern was my first GEC and what started me down this path and it is one of my favorite user patterns without a doubt!

To own one with a lamb blade that is much more pocket friendly than the sheepsfoot would be something I’d enjoy experiencing!

If these knives are really happening I’m going to have to try my best to score one 😃

The etch has prevented me from using a handful of knives, I have certain knives I'm collecting for my son using different criteria, the bone and jigging on this makes it one of them,infeel the etch is part of its identity,now if it just said Northfield meh,I have 3 knives that came from the factory with out an etch including the latest 32.but truth be told 2 of the knives from my son's collection have been put in the user pile because I ain't getting any younger,so maybe the city stock is next lol.

I agree 100%. I was absolutely and overly thrilled when Charlie’s City Stock showed up in my mailbox.

There are so, so many things to be appreciated about this model. Size, cam tangs, long pull, two blade single spring, shield, blade shapes and fit and finish is superb. The color hue is fantastic, too!

I’m a slim knife fan as well, and generally only buy single blade traditionals (exception of the 62 pocket carver which is awesome thin for 3 blades).

I don’t even think a Lambsfoot would take KOTY for me. I have one of Charlie’s Lambs and love it, but the City Stock is really something special.
 
A flood of kind and appreciative words from everyone!!
I Thank you all!!
It's true; the City Stock is as easy to carry as a single blade!! And I was sorta sorry to see the etching fade, but it's worth using the knife in so many ways!!
Many Thanks, my fellow Porch Dwellers!!
Oil the Joints!!!
 
This knife is ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!! It carries so well with the slim frame. The bone, color, and jigging are as good as it gets. I usually prefer half-stops, but this one has such smooth action that I really like the cam tang. Well done all around.

I agree. The action is phenomenal. And the style of jigging and the finish just feels warm in hand. It’s been in my pocket since it’s arrival.
