Sowbellys, typically Stockmen, but occasionally other blade configurations, are neat knives.

Good looking group of Sowbelly's.   :like:   The five bladed one's have always caught my attension. Had a Case five bladed one back in the late 80's it was full of issues. I used  it anyway for awhile then it got put away for years. I finally gave it away.
What? Enablers! Are you serrrrious? Where? I dont see any.

Case and Hen&Rooster make Sowbellys in the $60 and up range. Rough Rider has a variety in the $8 - $20 range.

Did you check out Shepherd Hills Cutlery? Go into the Patterns thread.

http://www.casexx.com/

Also ebay. Search Case plus the pattern.

Be aware that Case bone color is highly variable. Also Case knives are one of the top collected knives in the US, and there are a fair number of questionable characters dealing in them.

My only sowbelly: an American Blade Co.,"Life Knife". This was given as a promotion if you purchased a life membership to the Blade magazine. Five blades with handles made of two pieces of pearl and one of abalone.

Having a bit of a thing for green micarta couldn’t resist this Rough Ryder at the price…not bad at all, good snap, no wobbles, sharp enough to remove arm hairs, hesitant to say razor sharp but pretty darn good :tu:

You definitely can't beat the price! Mrs R has gotten into giving Rough Riders as gifts.  I like that green.

I like that yellow Powernoodle!  Most of my Cases are yellow delrin.  I like how it wears and its visibility.
