Who still carries a Case Knife?

[Digger Stubble]

A Stockman from the 70's. Shield came off while stag has been sanded and polished.
Started carrying and using it for edc and small kitchen tasks again. Hasn't been that sharp for a while.

Very very nice.

Thank you kindly.

Ahh, the 47 pattern then! I should've known from the clip. But, the 47 is just like a larger 18 basically Very cool!!

Thanks for the help.

May I ask what pattern and color? At first I thought an 18 but then the main blade has me second guessing that. I’ve seen you post it several times and really think it’s a nice looking shade.

It’s the 6318 Pocket worn burnt brown.

I like the 18 pattern a lot. Fits in the pocket nice. My only 18 pattern has a pen instead of a spey. How about yours? Pen or a spey blade? The bone is very nice!!

This has the Spey but I’d definitely rather have the pen as I feel it’s more useful

I am sorely lacking a punch across my entire lineup of knives, not just my case knives I'm trying to keep my eye out for a harness jack as I don't own many jack knives either!
The punch on a stockman seems like it would be a very useful secondary. I personally don't see much difference between a pen or spey secondary. And I use both very little. I almost always find myself using either the clip or the sheepsfoot on my stockmans. So, having a punch on a stockman would be a welcome addition!

Beautiful knives and great pic!!

Teardrop pattern looks great! Which handle material is this? Color and texture seem very nice.

Thanks
My favorite combination in a stockman is clip, sheep, punch. The third knife from the upper left, amber bone, and the fifith knife from the upper left, brown bone, have speys instead of the sheepfoot. That's why they ride so much lower. I filed the kick on one of the black, synthetic ebony knives to lower the sheepfoot.

The 18 is an excellent pattern

The red one? Smooth Old Red Bone. They've used it on several patterns now. Canoe, Small Swell Center Jack, Teardrop and a Kickstart Trapper that I can recall right now.

I've been down on Case for the last few years after getting several examples with very uneven quality. However, this Trapper is the third knife in a row in the last few months which is close to flawless. As nice as anything I've seen from competitors. If this is an indication that Case has picked up its game, that's good stuff indeed.

Thank you! Yes, the red one.

You're welcome.

I like the material, feels nice in the hand IMHO, and looks nice as well. I hope they keep using it.

Yeah, I’ve noticed what appears to be an improvement in the last several months. That would be a good thing
