here's my third knife of the day, GEC #73 trapper with amazing looking walnut scales. it is stainless steel rather than the more common 1095 carbonsteel. the finish and everything on this knife is perfect.

I got this A G Russell sodbuster (or 'rancher') today. its in black micarta or rucarta. finish on it is perfect, and the snap on it is also perfect, it opens completely smoothly, and is completely solid in the open position, then as you close it, it is like it is being sucked back into the scales, if that makes sense. Same price as a case sodbuster, very good value for money.

That is very pretty.

Jmora - Those are just

! The walnut on that trapper is gorgeous!

Al - I keep getting to the point where I'm about to pull the trigger on one, and back off for some reason. How do you like it?

Early day yet Tom, but my first impressions are HERE. I carried it at work today and almost forgot I had it. Quite light for such a large blade. Certainly going to be seeing some use from me, though the large size is no very people friendly so I'll need to be careful where I carry it

Yeah, that can be a problem for me as well at work. I keep a smaller slipjoint in my pocket in case I have to cut anything when customers are around.

Another easy-open Jack...a Camillus this time.

jerseydevil · **Reply #1478 on:** July 12, 2012, 04:39:43 AM

VERY nice! I can't wait for my easy-open to show up. Hopefully Friday.....

My collection so far...

Waterlander · **Reply #1480 on:** July 13, 2012, 12:33:48 AM

Scagel slipjoints (with halfstop). 1095 Carbon steel.
The smallest one on the right is my user(spearpoint blade). Nicest pocket knife allround I have handled.

Jmora · **Reply #1481 on:** July 13, 2012, 07:41:02 AM

those scagels are

nuphoria · **Reply #1482 on:** July 13, 2012, 12:06:02 PM

Indeed.... very

Waterlander · **Reply #1483 on:** July 13, 2012, 01:23:55 PM

Splitting another two blade scagel in half (with less nice stag)....leaving two single scagels!

(Once a friend from down under made me the blue bone with clippoint, I made him the orange bone with the second blade)

AimlessWanderer · **Reply #1485 on:** July 23, 2012, 11:44:50 PM

There are one or two others, but for the most part my array has condensed down to this ...

Thanks, there are a couple of shops in town that used to carry Nieto knives (fixed blades mostly though). I'll have a look around, maybe even find something locally

I think the Case Seahorses are a really nice pattern, and that wharncliffe blade is brilliant

Waterlander · **Reply #1494 on:** July 25, 2012, 07:09:39 PM

Wicked blade! Excellent pattern, perfect ergonomics, great build! tu:

Mine was made by a forum friend as a gift (with padouk scales and nice filework on the springs).
So I like to keep it a bit pretty. Otherwise I would put it more often in my pocket, it is great for daily carry. Hmm..I should get me another user! Something in blue..

AimlessWanderer · **Reply #1495 on:** July 25, 2012, 08:22:30 PM

VERY nice

Marius · **Reply #1496 on:** July 26, 2012, 09:11:32 PM

A humble contribution here with two of my smaller knives. A Boker mini lockback in staghorn scales and a brother in rosewood. Nothing special, just (very) small and nice:

Mmm I really like little lockbacks with bolsters! (Treebrand isn't it?)

But, Marius my friend, those ain't slippies in my book!
