Your newest addition:traditionals of course!

It took me a while to decide between rosewood and olive handles when I got a Setter recently. Decided on rosewood, and liked it so well I got an olive to go with it.

Thank you, CW, Jack and OH. I have wanted this one for quite a while and have been pleased with items from the Buck custom shop.
 
One of my latest knives a 2021 Case SS Sod Buster Jr. with black composite covers. Notice I said/typed 2021 and according to the label on the box (1/29/21) it is but the tang stamp on the knife's tang (10-dots) indicates it's a 2020 build. It just illustrates what Mike knifeswapper knifeswapper from Collector Knives has pointed out in the past - Case will continue to use previous years tang stamped blades until they are used up - waste not want not so to speak. So, what year is this knife from? 2020 as indicated by the tang stamp or 2021 as indicated by the box label? This is a good example of why dating by tang stamps should be done tongue-in-cheek so to speak.
