• Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I hope that you all have something to be grateful for this year and for many years to come
  • America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

    Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

Nice Kimber! Is that Officer size?
I have been busy getting some things done the past few days. I toted my 65-69 redbone Mini Trapper the past two days.
Case changed the blade types on this model (6207) in the 1970's, as far as I can tell, keeping the model number, yet going from a clip and pen to a California Clip and Spey blade.
Some say it was called a dogleg jack before the blades changed, not sure I agree with them since it does not have the true dogleg shape.

Nice red bone on this AND today’s Copperhead.
I had this is my pocket when I got another mess of crappie today. Getting ready to go in the kitchen and fry up a plate of them; this time of year I have a one track mind.

Catch a plateful for me!
I like that one even more I think JJ, it certainly pairs beautifully with your vintage CJ Barlow :cool: :thumbsup:

Thank you my friend :) :thumbsup:

I'm just about to hit the hay here in Yorkshire, but heading out for a hike tomorrow :) Have a great Saturday everyone :thumbsup:

Have a great hike, but remember~ no windows or birds!
Will - I try to think back to the Case hardware displays in the 1960's, when I was a kid, and I don't recall them ever calling the knives a pattern name, as we do today, seems like they would have a pattern number above or below the knife in the displays. Many of the old catalogs I have (not Case Catalogs) just show a pattern number and no pattern name. Of course, back then, most everyone knew what a jack knife was and what was a Barlow. Wish I had some older Case catalogs. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔😇 Very nice Queen, BTW.

This Cattaraugus knife is a true dogleg pattern, in my opinion and it has a compound curve or, as the old saying goes, is "crooked as a dog's hind leg" 🤣.
Your Queen and the Case 6207 pattern has only one. :

Schrade and Jeff would likely call this a Serpentine Jack, which is not incorrect either. ☺️
Beat me to it!🤙

Top o’ the day to All🤩:thumbsup::thumbsup:
Great choice for Shradeurday, Gus! Is that from the series that also had the trapper called the Miner, or am I mixed up?
 
Not much going on today. It's suppose to start snowing in an hour or so and we're thinking of going to the Brass Rail for supper tonight - lamb steak !! Thought I'd give this Remington Lumberjack a place in my pocket today. It'll come in handy watching NASCAR Xfinity this afternoon.

A pair of Victorinox Swiss Army Knives, (and not shown, a Mora Number 1, which lives in my rollator's shopping/tote bag) from Sweden.
The "oddball" is a Leatherman Charge+ TTI, from USA. (pronounced "US-ah"?)

I hope everyone has a great (and safe) remainder of the 2000's.
