The Sowbelly

[Kaminski]

I mostly collect custom slipjoints, and have only recently become interested in the Sowbelly. A Case came up for sale, so I thought I would give it a try. I quickly fell in love with the pattern.
Let's see how many Sowbelly fans there may be out there. If you have a custom Sowbelly, I would love to see pics.

I've been thinking about picking up a Case sowbelly in CV myself, I'm not generally a fan of knives with more than two blades but it's a real looker.

Recently saw a Case sowbelly in a single blade version.

This thread has some really nice examples:

I find the pattern very visually appealing, but for some reason it never makes it into my EDC rotation. Maybe this thread will revive some interest!

I don't have a custom but have a Case in jigged chestnut bone that is a great knife.

I have one, a "black box" Winchester, and it's my favorite knife. So much so, I no longer get excited about a knife that isn't a Sowbelly!
