whats ur favorite stockman

300Bucks · Apr 20, 2015

One of my, will never sells, is a old Buck 303 I recycled a piece of elephant ivory I was given from a grip of an old .45 auto. The best way to say it is, the wild spirit of the tusker is in the knife. 300Bucks

This 307 is just to make Rex covet in his heart.

Yep - that did it. I'm starting to sweat.

Case 6332. Jigged bone 70s stockman with half stops, a rare bird but the best of both worlds IMO. Also has a pen in lieu of the spey.

Shhhhh... it's an undervalued gem.

Great pattern.

My favorite medium stockman is the Schrade 899 and the GEC 82 is my favorite large stockman

The only one I have, at the moment.

I love that shocking blue handle. Reminds me of an old song.
My favorite- I like the stainless steel pivot pins, among other things.

This GEC 53 pretty much trips all my triggers for a stockman. The california clip rides low in the frame giving room for the nail nick of the sheepsfoot to be on the mark side of the knife also. Plus the sheepsfoot rides pretty low itself, which I like when using the other blades in a knife. And finally, I converted the spey blade into a pen blade, which I like more.

I don't EDC this, but if I were restricted to one knife this would be it. (Tempted by the Dixie Stockman, though!)

Probably this ultra rare Schrade +jigged blue bone

The Marbles large Stockman...

I don't always carry a stockman, but when I do it's probably a Schrade.

Specifically, this frame in one of its many incarnations:

My "go to" stockman is my Craftsman 9500. I keep it in my garage and drop it in my pocket whenever I'm outside doing whatever.

Except for the beer, I mean beard.

How could you pick just one favorite Stockman???

Aurelio Corso · Apr 26, 2015

I like them all but prefer the square bolsters.

If you think about it, the "most interesting man" would carry a Case. :very_drunk:

Only if he was tested.

Inspired by Will Power, I broke down and succumbed to the ways of the Dixie Stockman.

I don't know if it's my favorite stockman, (I only have one and clearly more research is required...) but it's my favorite GEC to date.

Will Power · Apr 28, 2015

You made a fine choice Dr M.

That Osage Orange is some very nice gear!

Thanks, Will
