I forgot to post this one yesterday. Normally I would just let it go but i like this knife and it deserves its moment.

:thumbup:

So many wonderful knives roll by; sometimes you have to just step back and really look, all over again. What a great knife, in lines, bone choice, execution.

-- One of many (many) in this thread that catch my eye for a variety of reasons. This is a great time to love pocket knives.

Mine today, in addition to the horsecut #25 featured in yesterday's post:

Very, very nice! I love the long pull, rattail bolsters, shield, and the ebony scales. :thumbup:

 

[Gevonovich]

They do make a great pair and compliment one another well. I use the 15 for food duty. Thanks again, Zach! Hope you are doing well, my friend!

I love this one. It's the perfect combination of tools IMHO. It's surprisingly slim for all it packs.

Please tell me a ton more about this knife. If it was an equal end, I'd say it was a #53 Buckaroo, but it appears to be non-equal-end.
I LOVE the Stockman (cattle) pattern knives, and this one does the pen blade so much better than the next best (Queen S&M Cattle Knife).

Looks like a #79 Workhorse Whittler. It's called a whittler, but it's actually a 3 spring knife. It's a 3 3/4" sleeveboard pattern.

You can see the tang stamp on the clip blade. 79231 then another digit, probably a 2 or 3. The first two digits are the frame, so you know it's a #79. The next number is a designation for the main blade. 2 is a regular spear. The fourth number is the number of blades and the last two digits are the year it was made. Hope this helps.

Sure is!

You can see more (than you possibly ever wanted to) about this pattern/knife here.

A great pattern that lives up to its name. :thumbup:

Oh boy... I've been reading through this and I have to find one now. I always find the perfect pattern a few years later than they are released. This is such a perfect knife, like they designed it just for me...

One more post about the 79, then I will post my carry for last week...
I see a few varieties (Montana Workhorse, Workhorse Whittler, something about an uninteresting 2-blade version, Etc.) mentioned in the other threads. What all models should I look out for? This knife has become my grail knife almost instantly. I bought a few Stockman patterns lately looking for the right one, but I didn't know something as perfect as the Workhorse Whittler:

It's rare that 3-blade knife is made with such an amazing spear blade and absolutely perfect "Lambscliffe" blade in the same knife, however for good measure GEC decided to throw in a near full-size clip just to make sure it was the best knife ever made.

I will save up for one of these and hope they're still available, I just have to pick out which one...
