NICEST 06 I've ever laid eyes on!!!My 3 latest. The micarta 72 was a gift from a great friend and the 06 was the culmination of a spectacular trade on both ends. The 78 is my favorite knife so far from 2024.

Flea market finds were somewhat OK today. I know what I have but I’ll be darned if I can age one. The Hiker pattern has the squared off Phillips with the file on the inside and a scalloped out cap lifter that is sharpened. $20 with a box I figured was worth it. The little Vic was $5 and the stainless Camillus Cub Scout knife was $10. I don’t think it’s ever been used!!!

An old one, maybe from the late 60’swhat sak has that little clip plz!
An old one, maybe from the late 60’s
I knew I had an old one as soon as I saw the clip so I was pretty excited about the condition of itthat does explain it cause I cant recall any of the modern ones offering that, i had one with a tiny spear and a main spear blade at some point
I was able to secure a #39 from a very considerate member here, and modified the long spey into a sheepfoot so I'd have a bellied and a straight blade.
So far so good, but my hands got crampy and it still needs a little more finish work on the swedge, but here it is.

ED, I really like the big honking sheepfoot on those 75s.
