Throwing down the Gauntlet!

[combatjiujitsu]

Alright guys and girls in the red corner the Case Stockman CV & in the blue corner the Buck 301c....which one gets the pocket time....BEGIN!

 

[Rsmith_77]

I am going to have to go with the Buck!

 

[Grateful]

The Case in CV is my choice.

[johnny twoshoes]

Thats a tough one for sure.
Right now I'm EDCing a Buck 301,so I would go with the buck. I EDCed a Case Stockman for years, but I've lost that first love with it.

 

[Flying Guillotine]

Well I've never had a Buck, but I do love my cv Case stockman. I guess that counts as my 1¢

 

[Sword and Shield]

Got both, the Case always wins.

 

[Peter Parker]

Both good knives but the Case for me too!

 

[thesouthernguitarist]

I say Buck probably. They are really good working knives. I like Case alot tho, so it's a toss up.

 

[ms3902]

Gotta go with the Case on this one. Something about that CV steel that just begs to be used.

 

[Karda]

I gots a pocket on both sides of my pants........
Boy, that was an easy one.
Next question, please.

Well...the only Case stockman I have right now is an Amber Bone and for some reason I just can't bring myself to carry it. I know...I know...but it's just so darn puuuurdy. . I think I need to get me a yeller stockman in CV. Now that one...I would carry without a second thought.

I have been dropping a 303 in my pocket almost everyday here lately, and although it isn't a stockman, I picked up a 305 Lancer earlier today (I'm amazed at how tiny the Lancer is). I really like that Buck...it's just the right size so it doesn't feel like I'm carrying a brick and it isn't so "nice" that I don't want to carry it. I feel that it's just a good all around working knife. I also have a yeller 309 coming in the mail in a few days.

You may just have to drop one of each in either pocket for a while and see which one you seem to reach for the most. That would be the one to choose.

I carry an Amber bone Stockman everyday, But in the opposite pocket is an Amber bone Canoe. So I can not carry a buck.

 

[sappyg]

OK... I'll pick the Case. But, I am biase

I am pretty much with him. I do lean a tad to the cv, but the 301 is just as good of a knife. I often have a 305 in one of my pockets. One of them is a standard Lancer and the other has scissors instead of the smaller blade.

Sappy, i think you better look up the definition for that word!
The word you are looking for is Biased

 

[Spydiefan04]

I'd call it a draw between those two, but I am more partial to the Case CV Medium Stockman and the Buck 303. To me that Case feels better in hand, but the 303 carries better in pocket.

 

[Zidfeldts]

I have plenty of both brands but I am always drawn to Case cv.

 

[jackknife]

Wow, tough choice.

I love my Case peanuts, but as far as a stockman, a hard working pattern if ever there was one, I have to go with the Buck. I carried one from '67 to the mid 90's and have too much history in too many places with it. In two and a half decades of steady use, I threw everything at it that a pocket knife could be expected to deal with, and it never failed me. Can't turn my back on that!

[knarfeng]

I've carried Buck knives for so long that engraved in my head is a picture of a Buck stockman attached to the term "pocket knife".

Like Carl, I spent a whole lot of years carrying one knife every day. In my case a Buck 303.
I've got lots of others these days, but I still find myself carrying a Buck 301 more often than not.

 

[rarreola]

case is my choice.
