Comment by Ron Cooper on October 23, 2012 at 2:03: Do any of you own a "Courthouse Whittler?" And if you do, how do you like it for whittlin'? I've only seen pictures of them but for some reason feel the need to own one. I would love to hear some thoughts about them. Anyone?

In Memoriam Comment by Robert Burris on December 11, 2011 at 15:39: I just missed a great Fight'n Rooster whittler on Ebay...so sad.

In Memoriam Comment by Robert Burris on December 7, 2011 at 18:52: The more whittler patterns I see, the more I want to collect them.

In Memoriam Comment by Robert Burris on December 7, 2011 at 12:47: I mean those that have whittler as part of their name.

The big task is to try to find all different blade variations, frame styles and backspring configurations.

In Memoriam Comment by Robert Burris on December 7, 2011 at 10:08: Ivan, anyone that knows of some of the patterns can list them. I recently learned of the Ballroom Whittler. A favorite of mine that is seldom seen is the Cotton Sampler Whittler.

In Memoriam Comment by Robert Burris on November 27, 2011 at 16:08: Someone in this group that is knowledgable in the whittler pattern could list all the different whittler patterns might get some fire going in this group.

Comment by Jan Carter on October 11, 2011 at 18:42: Ken,
