See what is different?
No. The red one (can't tell if it's a 110 or a 112) is sure nice, though.

The brass scaled Climber arrived today...
As GF said, it's a cracker! :tu: Swimming, though...a pass for me.

The mail arrived late yesterday (relief carrier on duty). A big ol' box from a friend in Germany was waiting for me! Inside was a very nice and intricately detailed Böker pen knife, an assortment of other knives (mostly German), and some chocolate. He truly went above and beyond the call of duty! The knife at far right of the middle row has a UK business' name on; might any of the UK contingent recognize the location (after enlarging the photo, of course)?

They all have nail nicks--guessing designed for the European market (and others) where OHO is an no-no.

Definitely getting the nail-nick 112LT Slim Select, as I don't like the look with the stud, and it will replace a battered 1996 442 I've had since I turned 18 (bought it used).

You want a southerner like Surge or Rizio for the location thing, I'm not super familiar with London besides the touristy bits. Looks like a paint company. Fantastic haul though  :tu:

The Red is a 112 Slim Select, and all three have NAIL NICKS, no thumb stud, I like the look.  :salute:

. Good eye Cody, that was my thought as well.  Just not understanding if someone stumbled upon a few case of knives that did not get shipped.
Several w/o studs listed on the Special page.
I am digging the SSPro w/Brown Micarta scales. 
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

You are 100% correct. Below are some additional photos, the second showing the damage to the blades. One member of a die-cast collecting forum I used to frequent said he "(couldn't) stand chips, unless they have salt and vinegar on." I completely agree when it comes to knife blades.

Now that's a well loved knife! The one blade has a curious shape to it, is that the original shape do you think?

And are you going to re-edge them?

Salt and vinegar is great on many things, including carbon blades  :like:

The secondary blade was broken at some point. I'm thinking it may have been a sheepsfoot. Obviously, I'd have to have that confirmed by someone more knowledgeable than I. I'm unsure what I'll do with this one.

And yes, vinegar does a bang-up job on carbon steel.

Oh I just noticed the little pry bar protruding out for paint can lids! That's a knacky idea, and indicative of a user IMO  :climber:

Not an edc but a good deal! I absolutely love these things, and normally there like $1 anywhere, unless sometimes on sale, yet last night the Mrs looked online on Amazon and they had them for a whole pack of 30 for only $15, so 50¢ each, now that’s a steal! So needless to say she bought me a pack of them, I have a 30 pack of watermelon coming my way, those are the ones I like.. now if you like all sorts of diff flavors, they had the whole box on sale for $17, and you get 100, that’s like 17¢ a freaking lollipop, talk about a deal! But I don’t like all the diff flavors..

 Stop at nearby Rural King, visit to knife display, could not resist.
This lovely marked at under $17, so I just added it to my kitchen rotation.

Upping my hank game with more options

Annnnd after a month's delay, my Twisted Assisted traditional came in. Carbon fibre scales with a VG-10 blade and leather clip slip

I have it now and I like it! I had a 58mm in yellow already, but it's nice to see it holds up in 91mm. It does make me wonder why the hiker has a Phillips, is there a lot of Phillips head screws in hiking gear?  :think:
