I'm still fussing with the Tidioute #73. They did a fantastic job on the 1095. Silly thing out-cut both my Schrade OT and my Cold Steel Stockman. Dennis Strickland had said that the GEC 1095 was primo. He was right.

Here is a very, very old (2) blade Jack Knife I've had in my pocket since Friday, last..
I'd been negotiating with my friend Vince for a good while from the week or so before and finally scored her.
After a few stropes on either side of her blades with leather she was cutting like a champ..

Rick Menefee modified wharncliffe The blade shape,IMO,is the best all around for a single blade knife.The 3-7/8" size is just right for me
Top knife

Schatt & Morgan Harness Jack and the first non SAK slippie that I can remember buying. I like it.

Welcome to the dark side.
That is easily some of the best looking bone I have ever seen.

Yikes! That Halfrich is a real knockout, Elliott. Great color, and I love his slim double-bomb shields.
Thank you both, Rick and Mark. Means a lot coming from folks with your fine taste. :thumbup:
Check this out if you get a chance...

I agree with you, Greg. It's a great knife for carry/use and it takes a nice edge too.

So thats where she went
Very good score my friend. Shes a beauty..I almost had myself convinced to pull out a little red bone to try and do some swappin, but I couldn't bring myself to get rid of any of it...
She went to a good home. Enjoy

Thats a dandy Elliott. I don't recall ever seeing any bone done like that. I like it :thumbup:

Boker Large Sodbuster
It came yesterday from online auction, for a price I couldn't pass up. It was a little gritty on arrival, but after a little cleaning and oiling, it opens up nice and smooth. At 8 3/8 open and almost 4 3/4 closed, it's a handful and pocketful of knife. High Carbon steel came hairshaving sharp.
Comparison shot with a closed Case Jr. and open with a Kissing Crane and Case Jr.:
Sorry for the pics, but I am awful with the camera and my scanner is even worse, but it gives an idea of the size for those who haven't held one.

Thanx Gentlemen,
Very much obliged for the nice comments.. I can tell you that I really like this old Jack myself as well!. Letting you all know she cuts like a champ is quite the understatement too.
