Free choice #1 this week is this Case amber bone mini trapper that came with a cap lifter, but @black mamba had @glennbad swap it for the spey blade of a Case sowbelly stockman, creating the Beerbelly :D! Jeff was kind enough to send me this "byproduct" of the transformation.

Free choice #2 is a Rough Rider white bone canoe with scrimshaw (thanks, Rachel):

That's a great paring, Joey! Love that pickle bone and that popcorn stag.

Had a day of Americana with baby girl today: Waffle House, voting, and a 3-year old's birthday party. It's only 6:30 and daddy is pooped out already. My dyed Case Beer Trapper helped with the waffles this morning.

Today's two totes are a pair of old pen knives; a slim Cattaraugus and a peculiar Canton Cut Co (1879-1927) with highly touted "Car-Van" steel.:)

A copy of the old "Car-Van" steel advertisement.:eek:

And I thought "super steels" was a recent invention :D:thumbsup: Wonderful old knives there, but please refrain from testing it by driving it through a bar of 1/2 steel stock:eek:

Shawn, are Jack and Vince on the right track in proposing Joker options for you? I thought you meant something more along these lines; say, slip joint vs. lockback:

Which of the four Jokers is your favorite, Shawn? ;)

Oh, man, what a tough choice! ;) I believe the models I ogled were NA111 and NA112, which look to be the two that you've posted, although your's may be the larger versions. I think I've settled on the lockback version hoping for a lighter pull. Could you shed some light on that for me? Is the pull on the lockback significantly lighter than the slipjoint?
