Gerald,  Back in 2010 I believe I saw your collection of Slimlocks at the Case Reunion.  The circular display was amazing and it prompted me to purchase my smooth redbone slimlock which is one of my most favorite edc. Thank you! 

Congrats Lee, two great looking additions.

Bill that was Charles Montgomery's collection. He has 2 that I don't have and one of them is a 1 of 5 and the other is a MOP one with a MOP desk knife that he bought at the 2010 reunion.

Thanks Gerald for the update on Charles M.  Even missing 2, that would make one outstanding collection.  I know that your mammoth handled Slimlock is one of the coolest knives around :-).  

Bone Soddie is here!!

Yes, I know.

Go for it Craig...You know you wanna.

I hope there's still some around when you guys can swing it.  It's THAT nice.

Now I want it even more!

I have to wait until the third Wednesday. I'm old. I'm on Social Security. It's not nice to make old people have anxiety attacks. I'm tellin'.

Craig, my Social Security doesn't come until the FOURTH Wednesday!  And my TVA pension doesn't come until the LAST business day of the month!  Plus my two annual club member knives that I ordered over a week ago haven't come yet.  I have been going to the mail box two or three times a day since last Wednesday waiting for them.  You are right.  That kind of anxiety is not good for us old codgers.

Some of us are still workin and old!

Growing old is mandatory....Growing up is optional. 

Now where's the mailman with my new toy?

Yeah it isn't fair. I'm 12 with an old body.

He who dies with the most toys wins.

To your point Craig,  George Bernard Shaw once said Youth is wasted on the young. LOL

ordered this last night. Sure wish it would get here.

I have had two Case knives on order for over a week and they didn't come today.  Bummer!!

They are the Junior and Regular Member Collectors Club knives.  I ordered them online at the Collectors Club website on June 1.  Since today is the tenth, that is nine days ago.  They sent me an email receipt for each knife and did not say anything about them being on back order.

When I ordered the New Members knife it came in just a few days.

Charles,

I think they ship the Club knives later in the year.  At any rate, their disclaimer is that all knives will be shipped by December 30.

Howard, you are right.  I just looked at my Case Collector which came today.  It would appear they probably don't even make them until all orders are in so they know how many to make.  I didn't notice any of that when I ordered on line.  So instead of waiting days or even weeks, I am going to have to wait months!  Next year I will wait til near the deadline to order so my money isn't tied up and I don't have to wait so long.

I feel your pain, Charles.  It's a tough wait for the club knives, but worse is the quarterly raffle when you don't get chosen for the opportunity to buy a matched set of something you really want.

When I order new Case CCC blue bone peanut knife. Just a week later, It arrive my package that i get it. It have no problem

Charles they usually make a number of the Regular member and Junior Knives early for the people that just order those knives, the Lifer sets knives usually take a little longer because they are put in line to have the Lifer number engraved on the set.They have a fairly good idea of how many they can make and not have extras.

Those new member Peanuts have been made for a couple of years so they were on hand. Check the tang stamp and see if it's not and earlier year.

I just checked the tang stamp on my New Members peanut.  It has three dots missing so it is a 2013.

Charles... same mine too

Wow Lee, that pearl looks great!

Woo Hoo, Woo Hoo, they are coming!  I just talked to Case.  The Junior Member Annual Knife for my grandson was shipped today.  My Regular Member knife will ship tomorrow.  Also while on the phone I asked if it might be possible to get a 2012 Junior Member knife.  There were a few left so one will ship tomorrow with my Regular Member knife.  I consider the 2012 knife my grandson's first birthday present.  This year's and each succeeding year's knife will be my birthday present to him.  So for his 16th birthday I hope to present him with 16 Junior Member knives.

The 2012 Junior Member knife is a crimson bone copperhead.

When the knives come I will definitely post pics.

Good job Charles and a good plan.

Good feeling having knives coming your way.......in a box......with the blades closed.

Yes, much better than them flying at you opened!!

You have a point there Charles!  LOL

Cass bought me a new knife as a surprise!

Third Wednesday is coming.....like molasses going downhill in winter.

Mine doesn't come until the fourth Wednesday, so my molasses are twice as thick!

Today for me.

I got my first case tested xx in the mail today.and it sure is Purdy.

Does anyone know what they call this pattern?

Lee,

I am not an expert on this type of knife, but it looks to be a Gentleman's Pen, especially in MOP, but three blades might make it a "Senator".

I thought it was a senator but was not sure. Thanks

Just call it SWEET.

Thanks paul

Beautiful pearl Case knife! The pearl looks in great shape!
