Got my new Gray Bone Case Mid Folding Hunter in the mail today! It is a Christmas present from my wife (actually I just bought it for myself and told her what "she" got me!) Anyway, I am very pleased with it. The bone is beautiful,a nd the fit and finish is great. It doesn't have the pocket clip, which I knew about before I ordered it, but I'm fine with it, I don't think I would have used it much any way, and it feels much better without it. I wouldn't mind finding a "pocket slip" or "pocket pouch" to keep it in, any thoughts?
I have a question for ya'll.Does the tang stamps on the fixed blades represent the same dating system as the folders. Example, Case XX USA for folders is 1965-1969, a fixed blade with the same tang, will it be dated 1965-1969? Thanks.
Craig, not yet. I'm saving up for a Stag Scout Jr. I'll get the orange G10 later. Hoping Case gets around to doing it in Real Tree Camo. It seems like a no brainier to me.
They have a pretty big selection of knives of various brands. Pretty good prices too. I can't find any reference on any forum of people buying from them. Strange. Who wants to be the guinea pig? HEY, let's get Mikey......
In all they have it with three different blades - drop point, caper, and up-swept skinner Comes in Rosewood, black Zytel, and Real Tree Camo Zytel. Zytel handled knives come with a nylon sheath.
Thanks Billy and Jean. Of course I wish it was my picture. Peanuts always stalk me. I tell them I'm done with them, then they sneak up on me, grab me by the collar and say "BUY ME!".
I picked this up at a flea market a couple of weeks ago. All I know is that SMKW got a thousand of them and it a humpback stockman with stag handles. I called them but could get no info other than that. Will post more pics.

Hi,
You should find another Xmas present at TSA :

I don't know which size you need. Hip pocket sheaths are great, but I like the protection given by absolutely ugly Sack Ups silicone pouches ;=)

A nylon sheath might work for the pocket or belt.

Toby, I need to get one of those Scout Jr. sometime. Maybe in Amber Bone.
Hog, southerntackle.com has a lot of knives, and pretty good prices. I was wondering if anyone knows how good their service is.

I've been wanting some fixed blades. I'm seriously considering this one. A VERY classic looking fixed blade.
