Here is a couple of my Clasp knives. I really like them and may start collecting and useing them. I really don't see why more collectors don't collect this pattern. I have seen them with fancy blades and handles, and a veriety of everything else. I just ordered a Rough Rider and a Schrade to add to my little collection of Clasp knives.
Tobias, that is a very interesting aspect, "size". The tactical knives have been on a larger trend for at least a few years. I find it very funny that the traditional collector has not followed suit. You may note the popularity of a good many models, made by some of the top Tactical knife brands. I think, we should get the opinion of some of our Tactical knife collector members and see what they have to say. I will try and do a little research on this, anyone that wants to join in this discussion, with more info, please do.
I'm going to go on a limb and say the reason not too many people collect them is the size. They are enormous and take up a lot of space. They are also a real pocket full!
I'll post some pictures later.
Yea guys, that's the pattern I'm talking about. I don't know why there's so many different names for it. There is only a few brands that make it but they all seem real nice. I like the ones I have, I don't understand why more collectors don't have them.
Despite the size, its a good solid build. The blade opens smoothly, Nice walk and talk, It stays open with little or no play. Razor sharp and very comfortable to hold. It would make a nice back pocket carry.
That white bone looks good! The only Bulldog/Deer Slayer/Clasp I ever had was a Case with pakka wood handles. Don't know why I never bought any others.
