The dogleg I had was O1. I don't know why but his knives are seriously underappreciated. They don't seem to trade like some others do. That's a loss to those who think that way.

I couldn't agree more. The Dog Bone I have is the most solidly built slippie I've ever handled. Thankfully I think I'm going to be able to withdraw it from sale and keep it in the rotation. It's a little big knife.

I just picked up this Rough Rider #106 split-back whittler and I'm looking forward to making some wood shavings with it. This is my second copy of this knife. The first one has a really light spring -- so much so that I found it annoying to use. (Trying to pivot the blade off the opposite thumb or putting my opposite thumb behind the blade to give a controlled push, the blade would start to fold. :mad:) This one is just about right.

Bought this'un on the way to the job this morning, after realizing due to being in a rush I left home without a pocket knife :eek: Doh! 34OT, this is the first Taylor Schrade I've gotten that has minor flaws. Things that nobody but us knife nuts notice. The main blade spring is a teeny bit proud, there is a burr on the delrin on one side where it meets the bolster. The biggest "defect" is the sheeps foot has a tiny amount of wobble. But these are all very minor nit picky things imo. For a $15-20 user working knife its a great buy I think. On the plus side the clip has the finest most acute point I've ever seen, good for pesky splinters;) think this one is going to reside in a pocket on my tool bag, for a back up.:thumbsup:
 
I haven't bought a new (current manufactured) Case in quite awhile. I did learn of a pattern here in the Traditional Sub-forum sometime back that I was unaware of - the Case 27 pattern penknife in the Stockman pattern. Finally saw a 6327 this past week in the Case display at a small engine repair shop (they have a very nice selection of Case Knives). At any rate I have one now to pair with my Case 6333 (same size/configuration penknife but with square bolsters). This Case 6327 is virtually identical in size and configuration to the old Schrade USA 108OT. OH

I really like that one. Thanks for sharing it as I was unaware of it too.

Went into a pawn shop beside where I ate lunch, they had this 110 in the case for $29.95 which I thought was a pretty good deal. But when I asked the guy to look at it he hands it to me while I was CE&CF it he says " I'll take 15 for it", I said "I'll take it" lol.
Its a 2012 but still new with a factory edge still. Only odd thing is its nearly completely black on one side and shows good grain on the other. I think its cocobolo. Never had cocobolo before so I'm not sure.
