Today, I have a brace of Case....

The '83 model 6292 big Texas Jack in real jigged bone, and the '73 model 6244 in fake jigged bone.... the '73 pen knife is a single spring, and it just practically disappears in the watch pocket, yet it has big enough blades to be very useful... almost like a "crossover" between a large knife and a watch pocket knife.... it's sleek....

Just the opposite at my house... I'd be the one napping. 😁

The first 30 minutes with this knife were an utter disappointment. The action was HORRIBLE. It has a half stop but was so gritty it had to be pushed to full open and full closed. I considered returning it. I put some oil in the pivot and worked it open and closed for about 10 minutes. There was a lot of grit in there. Now it has a very nice walk’n talk. Snappy action with flush back spring in all 3 positions. The bolster to cover feels seamless. Very glad I gave this one a chance. I compared it in size to my GEC 15 and it’s slightly smaller. I suspect it’s in line with the size of a 14, but I don’t have a 14 for comparison. Really like the Sherman Damascus.

Very nice, glad you gave it a chance. Several of my Bokers have arrived that way but after a flush they end up with fantastic action. Ironically, my Sherman arrived with awesome action and required no flushing.
😊👍
 
So this happened this morning, sitting outside with my beautiful wife having a cup of coffee and watching my birds. Saw my first hummingbird on the feeder, house finches were out with their fledglings and momma bluebird was still sitting on clutch #2 ( they started hatching this afternoon) when this girl flies over the fence and to the woodpile. Clearly not from around here. I approached with a handful of seed and she jumped right up. If I can’t find the owner in next couple of weeks I guess I’ve got a parakeet. Blue 78 seemed appropriate.
