Wonder why Case doesn't make more liner locks?

I like Case knives - the fit and finish and almost unending color choices. I like to carry two knives with me - a smaller knife that snuggles unnoticed in my pocket until it's needed along with a much larger, stouter knife for cutting heavy stuff, stabbing boards, and fending off bears and such. Nothing huge, just bigger - something in the 3.5-4" range. The larger knife needs to have a locking blade.
I find Case lacking in that area. I like their Trapperlock, but that's about all that turns me on. Their Mid Folding Hunter looks like a platypus.
I'm eyeing the Queen liner lock teardrop as an option. Case needs to step it up with the locking options.
 
HI NativeCraft, here's the Queen teardrop. You might also consider the Case Russlock.

Another :thumbup: for the Queen #06L linerlock. I have three of them in bone, and they are just great knives.

Oh, now y'all are teasing me. Wanna sell any of tem?
The Russlock with that abomination of a flpiper makes it a no-go for pocket carry for me.
 
Russlock, Mid Folding Hunter, and Trapperlock are the only liner locks they make. Their other locking knives are all back-locks. You can always contact them and recommend they make something different: http://www.wrcase.com/support/contact/

The Queen Teardrop Jacks are available from a few dealers.

Sorry, Gary. Please delete my post if necessary.
Just curious - why so strict around here? It seems like every other thread incurs a correction or reminder from a moderator about something. Not complaining, necessarily, just wondering.

I left you a visitor message, so we can keep the thread on topic.
 
The Traditional Forum is the most heavily moderated forum on BF. Always has been. The moderators, both past and present are of the opinion that a forum with a requirement for genteel, polite posting leads to a better experience for most people who like traditional knives.

We could moderate using infractions and official warnings. We prefer to post in the thread and via PM or VM for most things. It reduces the repetition of corrections.

There are a couple of stickies on Traditional Forum posting guidelines. If everyone spent some time familiarizing themselves with them, Gary and I could just hang out and not have to fuss at folks.

In that sticky is this paragraph:
We don't want to see the forum become an extension of the "Exchange". In line with this, please do not make public offers or inquire as to the availability of another member's knife which has been posted within our threads.
