[4ever3]

We had lunch at the Saltgrass Steakhouse and I use the clip blade on a medium rare steak I had.

Thats what I'm talkin' about right there.

Got this one today

Thanks y'all! The California clip blade does ride pretty low. We had lunch at the Saltgrass Steakhouse and I use the clip blade on a medium rare steak I had. The big steak knives they supply just rip up the steak rather than slice off thin, juicy pieces.

The entire knife is very pocket friendly with the round bolsters and the somewhat flat sides.

Elliot,

Mighty fine jacks! That ol' Winchester is a real beaut!

What's your technique for cutting on the ceramic plates? I've always cut the meat almost to the plate then either lift it with the fork and cut it, or if it's thin enough it just rips off the steak.

Nothin' worse than the feeling of a sharp blade hitting that hard ceramic.

I do it like this...

Cut 1/3rd of the steak off with the steak knife, then prop the end of the remaining 2/3rd's on top of it. You can then cut through the top piece of steak using the bottom piece to protect your blade from the plate. :thumbup:

When I saddle up for work in the morning this:

will go in my left front pocket.

It's a China built 885UH that my co-worker gave me because he couldn't sharpen it. He sure did scratch up the blades trying!

I CAN get it sharp so it works for me.

I'm JONESIN' for some Case with CV and Amber Bone!

I'm still carrying this knife with others, this one seems to stay as a daily user because of the ease of maintenance. It's main use is for Food, rope, cardboard, wood projects. Mostly for work what I call, clean work (NonToxic). This knife is great because clean up is easy and I never worry about rust. For clean up, I just throw it in water and clean it with some Dawn. Even the joints seem to go without oil longer (Mineral Oil).
And sharpening is a piece of cake which can be 2 or 3 times in a day of hard use.

I think this one (carried in a Fenix AA belt sheath) is gonna be with me tomorrow:

The one in back. As the one in front is in front left pocket.

I am NOT the one who scuffed up the blades on the Stockman! It was my co-worker.

That one Peanut that is not like the others is VERY nice!

I've been carrying my new Mike Alsdorf Doctor for a few days now. I can't say enough about the fit and finish on this beautiful little knife. One day soon I might even have the time to take some of my own pictures. This is Mikes:

Is the CASE Muskrat a single spring knife? It's a pattern I don't own but I've been wanting to test them out.

Thats a beauty of a peanut Rob.

 

[hunterfisher808]

No its a double spring. Its my first knife in this pattern and don't know why I waited so long to play with one. Having a slippie which is a mirror copy end to end, and side to side was something that never occurred to me till I got one. Neat concept
