What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Amir Fleschwund]

I've been totin the little 12OT Jack in the coin pocket of my jeans, even though I usually forget to take a pic of it.
Yesterday, during physical therapy, I'd been on the bed/table doing bridges and leg lifts with ankle weights before moving over to the leg press machine. Abby, my PT came over with the little Jack and asked if I'd dropped it. I thanked her for not swiping it, and she said "I wouldn't know what to do with a knife anyway".
No more knives in that little pocket anymore, just a couple of flossers, since now I know how I lost one before.

It’s big (4.5”) but light, sharp and well made with a smooth opening and an easy to close lock.

It's been a long time since I've bought a traditional knife that wasn't a SAK, and even longer since I've bought a Case knife in good ol' yeller Delrin.

Despite liking Case knives, I've somehow never owned an example of this classic pattern. I went with the 47 Stockman over the 18 because I thought the slightly larger size and deeper-sitting sheepsfoot blade would suit me better, and I was correct. I also liked that it's a three-spring pattern; that's just neat.
