Initial impressions? The Tribal Lock is great knife, such a handy design that’s a pleasure to carry.
Boker Solingen Barlow Expedition. Canvas Micarta, bronze bolster, and 440c steel. After seeingOldHercDude 's, I just could resist!

How's your copy?
IIRC, the bolsters are bead-blasted brass, not bronze.
They are great little knives, and fantastic slicers, and your new addition is no exception. Lovely bone. I'm sure you will be happy with it and put it to good use.I've been meaning to check out the Case Sodbuster Jr. and Collector Knives had a price that was just too good to pass up. CV steel and jigged chestnut bone. Thanks @knifeswapper!
Good call, not sure why I put bronze, lol. Fixed! My example is phenomenal! There is the tiniest bit of Micarta thread poking out from the shield that I'm going to take care of, but other than that it's basically flawless.![]()
And another one! USPS had to make a second trip to my house today because they forgot a package. Score! I wasn't expecting this bad boy for a couple more days.

That is a very nice looking Sodbuster Jr. I really like the jigged chestnut bone in CV, are the covers pretty thin?
G,day, if i may, i have 2 Case sodbuster juniors, one is a pocket worn whiskey bone, similar to Fixalls but just different bone color. I also have one in yellow delrin, the bone is just so much thinner than the delrin. I have measured them for you with an electric measuring caliper. The bone is .396 inches and the delrin is .530 inches, so you can see there is a big difference, and i call the bone thin. I hope this helps you make any decisions.

Does one I made for myself count as new?
