Thanks guys, this is my 5th #72 and I'm excited to finally have a clip with carbon steel. It feels like it's been my knife forever, it's just been waiting to get home.
I looked at the stag ones and I passed on them, not sure why, but I just wanted to wait. Bob has one that I got to see at the Pittsburg show and if I get rollin' in the green, I may end up springing for it if it's still around.
Good choice, Johnny, I waited a long time for the 72 lockback to come out. I had a genuine stag on oder for a long time and it finally came out. It's a great pattern.
Good job Johnny. Send pics when it is home and safe.
Well Robert, it's not a new to me pattern, but It's a knife I've wanted for a long time. I got another #72 on the way, this one with a 1095 carbon steel clip blade and frontier bone scales.
A couple years ago they had one in the store at the rendezvous, I looked at it and decided not to go with it and I have kicked myself ever since. I finally found another one and it's coming home where it belongs.
Ha Ha, well let us in on it. I know you probably picked a good one....
Well, I ordered a new one today!!!!
Right now it's Dogleg Jack, but I'm thinking about maybe trying a new knife. I've been through a few of my other knives in the last week, but nothing is sticking yet.
YEA!!!!
They will be home in no time. Gives you an opportunity Johnny to EDC some of those other knives that are calling out for your attention :) What will you use next?
My knives have made it to Titusville and are out for delivery.
They will be in good hands soon.
I'll have to do that Robert, I'll be looking for your recipe.
