What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Case Knife of the Week is an amber bone mini trapper that started out with clip and cap lifter blades, but @black mamba switched the mini trapper cap lifter with a sowbelly stockman spey blade to create his legendary Beerbelly Stockman, and generously gave me the resulting clip/spey mini trapper :thumbsup::cool::

Cool mini-trapper! I have to ask, GT, what happened to the cap-lifter?

Back to my newest edition for today. Still genuinely impressed with this one, though the way they machined the blades to get them to fit instead of the normal kinking is a bit odd.

That's the same kind of beautiful jigging Moki used on my B&T.
I don't know what it's called, but it seems like it may be popular with the Japanese makers ?

Yeah I’ve seen it on a few different Moki-made and Japanese knives at large. Seems like it might be intended to give the feeling of stag a bit more(?)

I do like it quite a lot, but I do wish the bone was a little lower profile. The knife is already thick, but then the bone is raised a bit as well.
Very comfortable in the hand, but a bit bulky in the pocket 😂

Katz. (I have one.) Designed in Canada, made in Japan. AUS 8 blade steel.
I love stockman knives with offset blades. Of course I also like knives with one spring per blade. Either way, each blade comes out straight from the handle, which makes them easier to use.

Todays carry is a Buck 301 made in 2010 with "comfort craft" yellow covers. Instead of having a flat surface, the covers bulge out just a little That makes them a tad friendlier in the hand.
