Comment by Tobias Gibson on March 9, 2015 at 21:38: I'm a sucker for glow in the dark stuff. The liner lock was initially added to Case sodbuster sometime back but they discontinued the locking Sodbuster and have no plan on reissuing them. The folks at SMKW took the Case model and released their work knives based on the Case. They offer the locking work knives in the same sizes as the standard and junior Case sodbusters. Here i smy tortoise shell locking work knife. But you'll find the full size one in tortoise more appealing, Jan!

Comment by Jan Carter on March 9, 2015 at 18:49: LOL, well it's not going to kill you if you live anywhere else so we are safe Tobias

I like the liner lock idea but the handles are not doing anything for me

Comment by Tobias Gibson on March 9, 2015 at 17:34: Not sure if I'm the first one on the IKC block but once again I saw it on Ebay before it showed up at SMKW!! The Trapper and the little leg is in this month's catalog.

This one is the RR1429 Glow locking Work knife; essentially a glow in the dark Sodbuster Jr. with a liner Lock! How awesome is that!

The shield on the Glow series

Comes with a warning that basically says if you live in California it has chemicals in it that will kill you! Sure am glad i don't live in California! LOL
