Gem ! That redbone singsI saw the old Case XX 6207 with snapped tip and had to have it. I could have easily used it as it was but I like a fine tipped blade. After a few minutes with the belt sander its very tippy once again, albeit a wee bit shorter. a very fine knife and a pattern I fancyRe-tipped, sharpened, oiled and lightly cleaned up.

I’d have to take out a loan to afford shooting off a round!A Stockman for Saturday... Case Medium Stockman
Can I just be put in my canoe, set on fire, and pushed out in the lake? Head in a jar creeps me out.Nice finds.
Another wonderful old knife.
I'm carrying a couple newer knives that could be someone's wonderful antique find in 100 years. (assuming we aren't all just heads in jars by then)
Nothing fancy? Solid user?
Does Case call it a Serpentine Jack, like Schrade did with the 294? Either way, I fancy it as well!I saw the old Case XX 6207 with snapped tip and had to have it.

Thanks Jeff, it's a mini Trapper with a pen vs spey blade. I've seen people (the seller) call it a dog leg Jack as well. Serpentine Jack describes it best in my bookI’d have to take out a loan to afford shooting off a round!

Glad you gave it new life.
Thanks Jack!!!
Another great assortment of wonderful outdoor cutlery; very cool mosaic pins on your Scandi FB, too (good luck with the weather, BTW)!
I think someone made it from an O1 blade, but they did a good job, and it came in a decent sheath. Takes a razor sharp edge too Thank you, Jack. That's a cool looking modded Opinel.
I just had an idea for seasonal slingshot targets! I have these three with me today - all similarly jigged and all very well made. The Lambsfoot was the 2019 KOTY for me and is arguably one of the best knives that GEC has ever produced (obviously, that is my opinion). The M&G is the finest knife that GEC has produced so far this year (again, 'tis only my opinion) and the Conductor is a neat little knife that I have not taken the time to fully appreciate yet.
A beefy German stockman and a sleek Italian slicer for today's totes.
Meeting the chickadees.... a rite of passage for my knives

Jigged black bone sounds really cool, would love to see it!
Thanks a lot JJ, I have had that knife a few years now, and it cost me £8! I have a friend who buys and sells second-hand tools, and it was in with a load he had bought. I didn't know him so well at the time, and he thought that I was only interested in folders, so he didn't set it aside for me. The first I knew of it was when another feller picked it up, and was having a good look at it. My mate told him it was £10. I said it was a bargain, and advised the bloke looking at it to buy it. I told him that if he didn't, I definitely would. He looked at it some more, then said he wasn't going to bother, as he reckoned he could always make a knife like that. I told my pal that it was worth more than £10, but he wouldn't even take that off me
Thank you Dean, great pics from your hike my friend
Terrific trio Dylan, I was going to post up the 2020 thread (small bonus giveaway this year) today, but I'm finding it very painful to sit at my computer due to my latest bad back misadventure
Pretty and practical pair JJ, I've had a few of those Maserins, and they are great slicers
Hope everyone is having a great weekend. I had a good hike yesterday, but injured my back getting over a broken stile, so no pics today I'm afraid, as sitting at my computer chair is painful. Carrying my Hartshead Barlow and Charlie's Black Jack. Have a pleasant Sunday folks
Great knives, HF!The bottom one, pikku-tommi (small tommi) by Mauno Keränen. From top to bottom:

And the one I mentioned first.
And by the way, it is the independence day of Finland today. Because of covid 19 most people are celebrating it in their own homes, as I am with my family.
That’s funny because my real brother’s name is Jeff also! I love the Case Barlow, went a bit overboard on the vault run of them, 9 or 10, and I think a few on the way for Christmas!Nothing fancy? Solid user?
We could be brothers!
I’m with Dewey, Cheatham, and Howe Attornies At Law. Who owns this broken stile that caused your unfortunate injury?
Sorry to hear you’ve done it again, old chap!
That stile looked like it had been in a dangerous state for a long time I wish I'd taken photos 
Really nice festive picture.
Great photo!!!
Best looking Opinel I've seen.
One of my favorite Case patterns, the Dogleg Jack.
I know, ammo prices have gotten ridiculous.
Nice Case Whittler.
That Schrade jack is wonderful.
