Trying to decide if I should dye this one red or not.

It's your knife, make it what you want. But I have to add, Case's amber jig bone is the pinnacle of bone knife handles, in my opinion. This knife is already as good as it get for bone handles.

Very nice Chris.

Thanks, Bob! Got lucky.

Case large stockman for Tuesday. Brushed satin blades and back springs and more of a semi gloss finish that I rubbed out on the bolsters.
Dyed medium brown deep canyon bone over what was bright orange. The under tones of the orange gives the brown a nice warm color.
Defined all of the swedges to give a sharper transition ........ I reckon you could say Primble custom Case.

First time carrying since receiving it from Travman . I asked for a red wine color like a 70's Case. Travis absolutely delivered. I couldn't be happier with the results. Thank you Travis. Travman

Very nice, good idea with redefining the swedging. I might give this a go this weekend.

That is a pretty nice amber color. Personally, I might try to find an ugly knife to dye. But tomorrow, I might change my mind !
Decisions, decisions !

Forum Stockman on my time off from work.



Hope y'all have a great week!

Not a pattern that I’m typically drawn to, but there’s no denying the quality build of this knife. Very solid feeling knife, in a relatively lightweight package. Factory edge is scary sharp to boot. Lance

Lance, very nice in the brown. The checkering makes for a nice grip too.

Cosimo skinner and stag Charlie lamb today.

Been going over this picture many times. No denying that the LF is mesmerising in its new Stag garb but I really think that Cosimo De Benedetto Rabbit Skinner is the finest knife I've seen on the Forum for a good long stretch. And it's rather new, imagine it after some more years Remarkable in all ways, the originality of the pattern, execution of blade, wonderful curve, breathtaking jigging and the general authenticity and mastership

Treat to see, sublime to own

Thanks, Will

Will, that is a wonderful compliment to this knife. Cosimo De Benedetto truly makes inspiring knives. His attention to detail and craftsmanship are something that boggles my mind. He did this work with minimal input from me. He just knows what to do and how to design and combine materials to make a great knife. It’s an honor that I don’t take lightly to carry and use his knives. This particular knife was a wonderful gift from Rufus1949 .
