Your newest addition:traditionals of course!

Thanks! I was curious which company put such great stag on which knife.
That is great stag. And the GEC Wharncliffe trapper is a great knife.

Congrats on the new knife!
Thanks. It was definitely something different from what is usually offered. I bought it as a back up because I really like this model.
 
1st post and 1st purchased Barlow. I think I figured the pic posting out. Thanks for your patience.
I love the peach seed, great choice.

Here are a couple of new (to me) Ohtas

And pile sides

Judging by my Moki folder, I can only imagine the F&F on those two.

Happy to add this 2 blade congress to my collection. My first Boker. The GEC 13 whittler got me started on congress knives so I figured I'd try something new. It's definitely small but that makes it all the more pocket friendly. I like the nice snap and nearly fully sunken joints. Despite my impatient sharpening technique, it sharpened up very well.
Best of luck on your first Boker. I have several new and old that are favorites. It's good to see this old world manufacturer still at it.

Beautiful smooth bone. Is it camel by chance?

Just came in the mail today, my first Northwoods. I can't tell you how thrilled I am with it.
That red is killer!:thumbsup:

After missing out on two used ones I popped for a NIB. It's a diminutive knife, fitting nicely into dress pants coin pockets. Nice F&F is marred by the (apparently not unusual for Case these days) off-center blade. Not bad enough to rub, but not pretty either. Time will tell how it grows on me.

Nice to see you back from Austria Tom . We will be heading over there before too long .
Your new Case looks very nice and am quite anxious to see how you like it long term .

Thanks Harry. It was a bit of a whirl wind trip. My wife was to come with but she is still laid up with her broken leg. So, I just went for the business part. How long will you be there?

Sure sorry that your wife is still laid up . That has been over a month now .
We will be driving into Austria after a trip up the Rhine and will be in Austria for 3 or 4 days . I have been there before , but Nancy has not . I will be looking for something made in Austria while there .

Bugdoc Bugdoc That is a nice look. Too bad about the centering but I guess it is what it is. I've had my eye on one of those too. Nice score!

Thanks Alan. I had hoped for better QC even on this one, the least of the Case/Bose collabs. I bought it online from a tool firm, so I don't think they'll be to keen on working with me on this. I might try Case. I don't get too bent out of shape ;) about this sort of thing, but this one is a little special.
