I have never been into this design but lately I have been intrigued. Stop doing this to me......and my wallet.

I had this Tuna Valley Railsplitter for just a few days before the wise folks here on the Porch recommended sending it out for repairs (it had significant blade play). After three long months at Queen, it came back to me today! Hardly a week went by in that three months -- and it was a busy three months! -- that I didn't miss this knife.
Given its long absence, I'm counting it as new again. And from a repair perspective, it is new again -- Queen did a bang-up job eliminating the wobble, and they managed to preserve the feathered buffalo horn covers that drew me to the knife in the first place. It's one of my all-time favorite knives.

Glad to hear about the positive outcome, Dadpool. You picked a fine looking knife there. Those white swirls are very pleasing to the eye.

Seems as though I remember seeing Tip Top Tobacco for rolling your owns. Was the Tip Top a Promo/Premium or was it a Brand??

This thread has some info. Looks like Tip Top was made by Camillus in the '40s.
