I’ll check back in here in a few months with my 33. It will be riding in my watch pocket everyday from here on out.

Can't wait for some of last year's GEC #14 single clip blades to be posted.
I thought they were the perfect watch pocket knife, should have never sold mine.
Anyway, there should be some out there now with some good use put on 'em.

8 years 7 months and 21 days, I’ve blown out a few pockets along the way.

I’ve enjoyed following this litte nut over the years.

Sir Stich, I salute your dedication to the legume!!!!!!

The worn jigging, the gray patina on steel, all speaks volumes of the loyalty to the humble peanut.

Here are some of my favorites, I’ll dig up a few more.

This rode in my watch pocket through high school and college. Gave it to my son a while back...

Can't show the 14 as it remains more or less pristine.

But the 25 should qualify few years ago, they were all the rage, people forming huge collections of them to the exclusion of all other patterns, same with the Peanut. Then, it's as if it all vanishes in smoke, one reason I've never understood obsessing over one pattern, becomes reductive and insular....But these odd portly knives have charm

Won this in a GAW years back and it's often been with me. You won't see much wear on these tough characters Valox and all steel construction ensures that. Very handy knife and sharp...good snap too, there's a lot to like in Buck knives as functional workers.

Between a rock & a hard place

I'm loving all the little work horses.

Although I don’t actually ever carry a knife in my watch pocket, the #25 is probably my favorite watch-pocket-sized knife. I like the #14 well enough, but I prefer the chunkiness of the #25. This is the one I’ve carried/used the most.

I like putting this one to work, too.

This #14 has seen some pocket time.

This little Richards (not to be confused with Little Richard) is a good watch-pocket-sized user.

The #18 Coyote is a good secondary knife, but I don’t really like the tiny single wharncliffe as my only blade.

Of course, you can’t go wrong with a little yeller Case pen knife.

I can help you with the knife, but not the wear. The 14 is an ideal watch pocket knife, but it mainly cleans fingernails and snips the odd thread for me.

I was lucky enough to pick up...let’s just say “several”...14s, but if I remember correctly yours looked something like this:



Maybe in 100 years it will resemble this little gem:

Not worn but the right size

Like this little brut

 

[JohnDF]

YES!
It was just like that.
I miss that little knife a lot.
I sold it, and a few others, to pay for a "grail knife" that the owner ended up not selling.
