My favorite Case pattern.
The first dark red cv Case I bought was a mini copperlock. I was expecting a dark, merlot color and got a bight red knife. Put me off at first, but the mini is such a great pattern I carried it anyway and it grew on me. A lotI generally prefer a single blade and looked hard (more than once) at the Black Sycamore before deciding on the Dark Red two blade Copperhead.
While there is no real rhyme or reason to my "collection", I settled on the Dark Red mostly because I already have a Case Medium Jack in Dark Red ... so matchy matchy LOL
It’s convenient that she could buy you and the knife at the same store… I’m sure that saved her some time!![]()
My wife surprised me with this on our honeymoon. She bought me looking at it at a outdoors store, and bought it when I went to get the car.
Hm, I had to Google the Victorinox to see what you’re talking about. Pretty cool! Had no idea that even existed. I can see how it would be handy. That Angus is a little over cooked to my taste, but it’s a well done knife for sure!![]()
I still could be bad at math!I just thought you were bad at math![]()
Paul, for having come from the same maker, they’re very close. But while the Craftsman is close to virginal, it’s a nail breaker to open. The Schrade has seen a lot of use, but was very well taken care of.The 804 is a great pattern Jeff. Which do you prefer, the standard 804 or your craftsman branded 9554?
Very cool opinel handle David, way to put your spin on it!
A little patina going on this 881 to get it back on the right path. Perhaps I will carry it for a while.

That 'Like' was for the knife, not the weatherBeen raining here now for 24 hrs and it looks like rain for another 7ish days.

A pair of super sweet slicers today Jack; beautiful bone covers on both, but those slabs on the Needham Lamb are seriously stout!'m carrying two knives gifted to me, a few years apart, by my dear friend Duncan 'The Legend' [IMG alt="Campbellclanman"]https://www.bladeforums.com/data/avatars/s/196/196289.jpg?1492197537[/IMG] CampbellclanmanThe first is the 2011 Traditional Sub-forum Knife, which Duncan took out of his pocket to send to me. For me, that kind of gesture represents what The Porch is really about
The second is a Lambsfoot made by Needham Brothers, which Duncan obtained for me with the help of our beleaguered Man of the Hour, Barry [IMG alt="gunstockjack"]https://www.bladeforums.com/data/avatars/s/297/297156.jpg?1520561884[/IMG] gunstockjack . Thanks for all your kindness over the years Duncan, and good luck Barry!
