Beautiful stag on that one! That knife has lots of character.

I like the solid look of German camping knives

Philby · **Reply #1802 on:** March 06, 2014, 09:53:03 PM

The only problem with these knives is the price! I got this in good used condition off ebay for about 1/3 of what they cost new. http://www.heinnie.com/Boker-Knives/Folding-Knives/Sporting-Knife/p-116-970-3263/

NutSAK · **Reply #1803 on:** March 06, 2014, 10:09:29 PM

Yeah, they are expensive. Usually about $150 here in the US. I would easily take that one for 1/3 the price though, especially with the pouch and chain.

You did good!

Well, this thread got me thinking I hadn't gotten a new knife in quite a while.

So to remedy that I decided to pick up a Rough Rider Trapper (in yellow).

As anyone who has had a Rough Rider pocket knife will tell you; the quality is very good and the price is even better.

Not utterly flawless, one scale has a tiny gap, but still represents unbelievable value.

As a small aside I would question just how easily it falls into the 'reason free' UK category. I say this as the cutting edge is right on the money at 3", which is what the Law stipulates, but measured tip to bolster it obviously breaks the 3" length. So while technically OK (in my opinion) I am also not sure I'd like to have to argue the Legal nuances with a Police Constable on the street corner. $:-\$

I like GECs but I wonder if anybody at QC tried opening some of the older ones before selling them..

What's a beartrap backspring?

beartrap means too strong; able to chop off a finger when closing and really hard, to impossible, to open normally, Kirk

Ok...just thought it was a lock system I'd not come across

Kind of like Arkwrights till?

I want that Barlow on the right in that top pic. I'm carrying a Case jackknife of more recent vintage today, a 62032CV.

I consider "beartrap" springs to be stiff and snap open/shut like a beartrap. They're hard to open, but I have tough nails and like the springs this way--especially with halfstops. I can understand someone with weak fingernails disliking them, however.

I like the bone on that jack JD!

Here are a couple of closer shots of the barlow, to show the bone a bit better. I've always liked bone that shows the marrow groove like these.

...and here's my favorite "user" GEC, a 66 Tidioute Stockman w/paper micarta scales. I'm carrying this one today.

Love that 1973 6214 Case Terry.

kirk13 · **Reply #1821 on:** March 20, 2014, 10:17:18 AM

Another Case

A 32087 pen knife. Not sure about the Delrin scales,but liking the pattern a lot!

NutSAK · **Reply #1822 on:** March 20, 2014, 02:13:46 PM

That's a great start to a huge Case collection!

That CV pen is very nice!

+1 I love my 32087. The yellow Derlin is a classic, no-frills look to a knife like that. I've got five or six yellow handle Cases in my collection. On a user they're great.

Now you need a Peanut, and a Sodbuster, and a Slimline Trapper, and a medium Stockman, and a ......

Very nice Magnum jacks! Unfortunately, I've never been much of a fan of gunstocks.... $:-\$

It is still an interesting and unusual shape, for a collection.

bmot · **Reply #1828 on:** April 23, 2014, 05:11:36 PM

From top :

SRM H02
Vic pruning blade (or something like that)
Vic floral knife
Spydie Pingo Pin
Spydie Bug

It's really hard to believe hoe sharp that bug is. A REAL knife, even with it's tiny size
