Case Congress

Nice find Randall! Good looking knives!

Why thank you Doug!

Nice find. I've never seen a Russlock in person. Waiting to get you impression. I'm a fan of lock backs.

If I can find it on the computer, I'll post a pic of my Case Jack knife. I bet you didn't get the Kabar for $3.50.

Thanks Bill...

Yeah, don't I wish lol, just add 16.50 to that plus shipping ... still not a bad deal. The Queen was $25, which was a steal for the age of knife and condition of knife. :clapping:

Looking forward to getting that Russlock, it's an older Sheppard Hill limited edition

Okay... now your just showing off :laugh:

Now we know that you've been holding out on us

 

[Gone2Three]

You've got some beautiful Case knifes Bill, have you recently acquired them?

 

[BillR]

These are from "The Collection". The Copperlock was from the first batch and the other two were from the second batch (same time you got yours).

By the way, the Jack was $37.50.

There are two of the same vintage on eBay now for $175 to $249. I didn't do too bad either.

That's exactly why I didn't post them before. I didn't want Y'all to think that. :cxtv:

...nahh we wouldn't do that :laugh:

That's the "point" (pun) of having them .. you show em!... and sometimes use them too

 

[Gone2Three]

Every time a new package is delivered and Michele says...what is that? I tell her its a gift from Bill

:laugh:

This knife thing is good. I did pick up 2 knives for me, one for the brother in law, one for the son in law, one for the future in law. Pictures to follow. Still have not found the buck knives, maybe soon.

Buck knives you own and can't find, or a type you're wanting to buy?

 

[desertclassic]

Find the ones I own. My guess is the x son in law has them. Buck 303 cadet, buck 110 with leather case, buck 118, leather case. Bought in AK in 1974.

If I don’t find them I will go looking for used ones.

 

[Gone2Three]

Wow, I had to search for this thread, seems like it's been a little while...

Come on Jim, I know that there's a few that you want to show us

Bill??? ....







Well with my day off and the majority of my honey do's done, my attention turned to my treasures...

So I wanted to give you my first impression of the Russlock. With the unique opening lever I found it challenging to open it one handed. I thought to myself, what's the trick... and turned to YouTube for the how to. After some practice I can do it, but found my own way after trial and error.

It's a beautiful knife and a really nice addition to the stash. Here are the pictures out if the mail. I've got to polish the engraved bolsters, other than that it's ready to go.

My other father's day gift will be a show box for all the bargain knives I've picked up over the last month from Ebay. Michele is tired of seeing them lined up on my dresser, and they do get dusty from being out in the open. Found a cheap one on Amazon, and it's on the way.

Nice Case knife Randall. Never saw one of those.

 

[consitter]

Very nice Randall.

 

[Gone2Three]

Nice Case knife Randall. Never saw one of those.

Thank you Doug!...neither had I until I was looking at the Sodbuster's one night after Jim posted his. I came across this one and it's lever open caught my eye.

Very nice Randall.

Thanks Scott! I really like it, and love the look of engraved bolsters

 

[BillR]

Damn, that's nice. I love the color and the engraving.

I know you said it was a limited edition, but I don't remember for what. Is it really practical or just novel?

Looks like a liner lock. It wouldn't be good for a lefty. Wouldn't you have to use the right thumb for a one hand close?

 

[hogcowboy]

Nice looking knife but I'm not a fan of that kind of opener though. Guess you got to take the good with the bad.

Thank you Bill, it's a 2013 limited edition (#28 of 100 ) production run, antique jigged Brazilian cattle bone with etched bolsters.

Is it practical? ....probably not, it's definitely not a southpaw knife. More like a love it or hate it deal

The lever protrudes when closed so it looks neat but not pocket friendly I suppose as for an EDC.

Yes, the liner lock is a challenge when closing with one hand, therefore I use two and it works out for me. The thumb is a little sore from the pressure needed to close, but it's a new knife, with use I'm sure it would be a little easier.

Just a neat knife to play with... (Nod)
