Always appreciated, GT, the RR sowbelly is a great pattern, a little slimmer than Case and Queen make 'em.

Gary, I don’t mean to misrepresent the history of a knife pattern. To the best of my knowledge, there is no connection between the political party of the Civil War era and the knife pattern. I have been led to believe that the name copperhead stems from GIs carrying them in Vietnam clearing tunnels. I can find no history on this Case with the miniature Lincoln head penny mounted in cover.
Fascinating pic, Ken!I had no knowledge of the Civil War era Copperheads, nor had I seen a Case copperhead pattern with the penny inlaid in the bone. Thanks for doubly expanding my horizons!

Thanks, Perry & Jeff & Dean; they're sure interesting knives.Jeff, I've had that horn-handled lambsfoot since about November, I think, and I've most often posted it in this thread as part of my quartet that I carry literally every day, regardless of what my rotation schedule dictates that I carry. Dean, I'm up to five knives with lambsfoot blades now.

Thanks, Jack.
Makes you wonder whether someone is celebrating or suffering when he says, "Make mine a double."Beautiful twin lambs, Jack!

Earlier this week, I posted a pic of the Uncle Henry stockman I'm carrying this week. Stainless blades, of course, but I'm always delighted that the springs are carbon steel:
