Hope the wood is happy...could have become kindling at my house!I tried to study but I was attacked by a piece of basswood and forced to defend myself.

The '47 Case might even be my favorite stockman. For sure it's my favorite of what I can buy new now. And the individual stainless springs give it an edge over the older ones I love. I also have about five '18s, which I also like, but the '47 manages to deliver more blade with very little added bulk, or so it seems to me.Are your 47s 2-spring models (older) or 3-spring models (newer)?
A remarkable example of one of my favourite CASE patterns, svelte, snappy and superCase 6318 always in the pocket no matter what else I am carrying.
