<p>Yep. I've seen their "Chubby Cousins" series, which were kinda quirky in their own right.</p>

<p> Thanks J.J. I like to think at times I get a deal every now and then. I was really after the 3 Colt and the two RR knives and thought about asking the seller to keep the other two as they were not of much interest to me. After a bit of thought I figured just get them all. it was a very good deal.</p>
<p> Jan really helped with finding out what the blade is and that is part of what makes the CT706 a bit different along with the style of the frame and scales........ thanks Jan.</p>

<p> Well I kind of figured it is a inexpenseve knife. Although I did see it listed for 34.00 on one website, however it is stated that it is unavailable or should I say discontinued.</p>
<p> I'm not quite sure if the blade is capable of holding a decent edge for even a short period of time or if keeping it sharp is a waste of time. It has a fair edge on it at present (cuts paper with ease) To me it kinda looks like a short but oversize box cutter with a Damascus Steel looking blade.…</p>

<p> Aw well its different looking enough to me to add to my collection. It never hurts to have one that is unusal in the mix just for fun............. :).... Wally G.</p>

<p>I've been doing a bit more research on the Colt CT706 knife. It seems that Cutlery Corner sold this knife as the CT706 Chubby. There does not seem to be to many of these around and for me its more of a keeper item as I can't see any practical use for it.</p>
<p> The way its built is a bit unusal and its a bit small for my hand. I like the fact that its a lockback. I've seen a couple of pictures of a couple others and the pattern on the blades looks identical...... So not a Damascus steel…</p>

So not a Damascus steel blade but as its stated a damascsened finished blade....... what ever that is. That the knife is unusal in looks and the way its built makes it a keeper for me. That goes back to my addiction for bright sharp bladed things (Knives)</p>

<p> The knives I posted about arrived today. There are 5 Colt knives, 1 Colt Ct310 China made, 2 colt Ct311's with different colored scales on each side and a Ct671 then the Ct706 FatBoy. The FatBoy is the one I have questions about. As I've not heard of a Colt knife by that name.</p>
<p> I did find a Colt Chubby but its a Ct703 and quite different from the Ct706. Here are the pictures of them…</p>

<p>Wally,</p>
<p>I do know there is a CT706 often referred to as a chubby. I can't wait to see the pics and maybe we can answer a bit for you</p>
