Your newest addition:traditionals of course!

It’s beautiful Jim, nice find, love mine too. Isn’t the action, especially to half stop fantastic?

Thanks, Todd. Couldn’t agree more—the W&T on mine really is fantastic.

I've been looking to add a Eureka Jack for a while now, and was lucky to find this one. I think the Elderberry Jigged Bone is just beautiful. I see a lot of pocket time ahead for this one -- what a great pattern!

Boy that bone is great!

Fresh out of the mailbox... Case #47 Stockman

 

[Jon0385]

This one got to the Post Office on 1/29. I just picked it up this morning. A Victorinox Scientist. I've been looking for one of these ever since I became aware they existed. I have a couple of Waiters and Explorers that I intend to use as donor knives to make one, but haven't got around to it yet. And I've never disaasembled two knives to make one, so it remains to be seen how successful that endeavor will be. But I digress.

Its a little beat up. but all the parts are there and everything works. Even the ink pen. I think its been carried a lot, but used little. All the pretty ones I've found for sale were priced way beyond what I was willing to pay - hence the, thus far unrealized, Frankenstein Plan B.

I'm extremely pleased View attachment 1738771

Those are hard to come by for sure. Congrats on the find

Nice John, I really like the clip on the 47.

Jon Jon0385 sent me a Coast Guard Challenge Coin from his Chief's Mess and I thought it appropriate to pair it with a Navy Chief's Challenge Coin. Although the Coast Guard and Navy go back and forth about who's the most important, it's a draw. The Coast Guard doesn't just patrol the inland and coastal waters of the United States but participates fully in actions alongside the Navy in many foreign actions. Further, I've included a Navy Sowbelly to make this an on topic post.

I agree with you on the elderberry, and, if you're like me, it most definitely WILL see a lot of pocket time.... congratulations on your new Eureka!

I got sidetracked, and almost forgot MY new addition.... I guess I'll add to all the guys that have new 82's... I finally found a stag 82... I've been keeping a weather eye out for one for a while, and... here it is. I'm jazzed....

Have curtailed my purchasing, trying to reign in my spending. But when to quote a famous movie line " Someone Makes Me An Offer I Can't Refuse ", what is a knife guy supposed to do. This was an offer to good to pass up, considering what i accumulate. A Sheepsfoot, and 2 Lambsfoot, at the correct pricing, eg.-cheap. .

Well done Leon! Now it’s time for a full report, with pics!

Going to clean them up first which is always my standard practice with a new purchase, but strictly between you and me, and no one else, because we can't discuss purchasing on Bladeforums. . These cost me delivered into my hands, a lot less than a GEC delivered, so you can see why i could not pass them up.. Nothing to see here, move on.

Elderberry Jig is certainly very worthy stuff, have a Dixie in that but the star has to be a Dixie Stag. You landed a fine example there and I'd say well worth the wait too. For a big knife these are so sleek and the blade arrangement original and practical. Well done

Thanks, Will

I thought it was time to spend excess cash on a 5 blade knife...

Looks like ole thousand legs! Great looking purchase!

The Case color palate sure has evolved recently and I love it!

And this, kids, is why you don't leave your knives laying too close to the oven.... they will wrinkle up, and never be the same....



actually, I had never seen scales like those.... I like them a LOT! Very cool character. Being a Buck, is that ebony wood, I wonder?

Lol. Thank you good Sir.

It's "Scalloped Cocobolo Wood".

Nice John, I really like the clip on the 47.

Thank you, Todd.
I like having a full clip blade on my Stockman knives.

Nice addition, it's a beauty!

Nice new flock, my friend.

I agree, and thank you.
