[black mamba]

Home from work and pocketed another Queen stockman, this time a medium (3⅝") in swamp grass smooth bone with 420HC blades.

As Jack Black was carrying the knife I bought him in Albacete yesterday,I am carrying the same model (different covers) I bought myself at the same time (and why not).

I thought that MM looked pretty sweet sunknife

With that date and bone, it is definitely Queen made.

If memory serves, in 1999 Moore Maker carried both premium and less premium knives. The lower end Moore Maker knives were made by Camillus. I agree that the bone on that looks like it came from Queen.

Meanwhile, new knife day. A Boker Anchor Sailor's knife. Ebony and stainless steel. And excellent fit and finish.

Thanks for the replies, gentlemen. Very much appreciated.


Have the Moore Maker in pocket again today along with a Boker Club Knife.

When my first granddaughter was born, I decided to get knife etched with her name and date of birth. Her eyes were blue so it had to be a blue knife. I've continued that tradition and just received the knife for the most recent addition to the family. Yes, 3 girls all with blue eyes. I have more expensive knives but none that are more valuable.

Excellent Engineers knife!!!


I'm headed to the Adirondack mountains tonight, for a few days of recreation. @ sgbeskin recently got me thinking about my old Remington R4 saw scout, so it's headed into the woods with me.

It’ll do the job!! Make sure to take pics. Have a great time!

This knife stands out among the all of the 2024 Blade Forums knives for having the most impressive factory dye job.


Just kidding. This one came from the factory with a lighter/washed out look. Nathan gave this one the look it needed. If you haven’t seen his dye jobs yet, then check out his work.

Thread 'Custom Dyed GEC’s by Nathan & Travis'

Aug 31, 2023

I’m so happy with the dye job on these two GEC’s. I have always loved deep red dyed bone on a pocket knife. However, many red bone GEC’s tend to lean towards pink. I have tried dyeing knives in the past, but was always discouraged by the corrosive action of dyes like RIT. These two knives were dyed by my Bro-in-law. He uses an industrial lacquer based dye that is non-corrosive and does an excellent job of penetrating deeply and not leaching out. I’m excited because I have often turned down red GEC’s because of the white to pink edges around the bolsters. We should be able to fix that issue...
