Hey Tom please don't eat and drive with plastic ware or a hobo knife. Why would you go through the drive thru and worry wether they added plastic ware so you'll carry your hobo in the glove box. So instead just park and go inside and tell them what they forgot and get an extra set and put it next to that walmart piece now you can invite a guest hey Toby.

It's only a matter of time before I buy a Hobo.  I will get zytel when I do because it will be a pure user.

I have about 5 Case Hobos the older fork and knifeones and one amber bone with spoon have a old Colonial, and also the one I like the best is the all Titanium Knives of Alaska Hobo, but tommorow I am going to hit WalMarts and pick up one of thoes Ozarks at 5.00 I will throw in in the Glove compartment so next time I go through the drive throw and they dont put any silver Plactic Ware in my sack I will be able to eat my food LOL

LOL!  OK, I have to admit all I do with my Hobo's is look at them.  Donnie does have one he takes on the annual fishing trip, says it is perfect for getting Vienna sausage out of the can

There you go again, Craig.  I was just about to put my Rosewood Hobo in the ole ALCE pack when you start talkin about looks.  I guess I will have to get the Zytel one and leave the Rosewood one in the display.

I LOVE my Case Hobo, and think it would work great for me....IF I were to use it. But, it's too nice for me to get the nerve! LOL!

Randall, please don't take my last post as a personal attack.  Also all of you Case fans, please understand I also love Case knives and own several.

Actually Randall, I think you're wrong.  Despite its bulk, the fork and spoon are already too small for easy eating!

The Ozark Trail  (Walmart Special) Hobo has a good size fork and spoon that you can actually eat with easily!  Unfortunately the knife is one the spoon half .  But for $5, it gets the job done.

I own several hobo knives but when it comes to backpacking and even my bug out bag, I decided a long time ago it made more sense to just toss in a tea spoon and a salad fork held together inside a small.  When I was in the Army, I usually put them inside one of my canteen covers.

Again, I like Hobos and own quite a few and have often been tempted to get a Case Hobo.  I'm guessing eventually I'll buy the BSA one in Navy Blue Bone but having held it and looked at it at SMKW a year or two ago, I considered it more or less useless for actual eating.  Great concept but poor execution.

I have one I keep in a backpack when you break it down to use I don't think it is to big if it were much smaller would be hard to eat with

Tobias...

I agree on the size.  But it is a Case and this will be a collector for sure. I like the whole package and would carry it in my rucksack.  I guess I will vary from my swing guard fetish and get one of these bad boys.
