The wear is more evident on the bolsters and shield than it is on the scales. This has been my EDC to the office for about 6 months. It's the most comfortable 2 blade knife to carry thanks to the single backspring design and smooth scales. I can also open the main blade without using the nail nicks.

Lots of peanut love today
still no peanut here.
BUT i have been carrying this little guy the last 2 days, even brought him to work in the warehouse with me
i spent a little time sharpening it up real good and its been doing JUUST fine, just have think about how I am going to cut something a brief moment more than normal, but it does the job just fine.
Although i gotta say, Got a little money saved up.
thinking of getting a case small texas jack in amber bone and cv
or perhaps a queen amber stag jack in d20. I am just sooo leery of buying a knife online...dont want the hassle of sending it back if its got gaps or wobbly blades (the last few online purchases have not gone well for me :/)

Fine Peach seed jig on that Robeson. Strange that the blades are almost the same length though?
Today, Tidioute White Owl in Ebony, again. I have the Kryptonite version too, these are really tidy knives.
Thanks, Will

Thanks Kevin! I appreciate your compliment on the photograph as I always enjoy your photographs.

I have always wondered about the main blade length myself. I have seen other Robeson with a shorter main ( like mine) but still I wonder. The secondary blade is marked Robeson/Cutlery/ Rochester.

Sure does and kind of confirms mine has been re-ground, which I always suspected but wanted to confirm. Thanks for the pic!!

Stropping the #72, curly maple base on my strop
Just these two today. I'm not usually a two knife kinda guy, but I'm really liking this combo - the peanut for regular cutting tasks, and the Vic for its tools, should I need them.
I carry the same combo!

I love it, the oldies always get me.
I had my Opinel and a Vic on me; I have been helping redo the kitchen in one of the houses my grandparents rent out to people. It is some fun work!

I have stayed away from some of the newer red bone Case knives for the reason you pointed out when you first showed this, Steve. But with the result you got, I may have to reconsider. That really does look good!
Did the Case shield come off in the process? The one on my mini copperlock did.
