Nice little lightweight lockbacks Ken! 

Ken, you need to post your Canoe up there in the Canoe Forum! Or here, or wherever you want! LOL!

I like these big Panama Trappers. Anyone have one?

I've had my eye on that barnboard PT for a while now.  The only thing holding me back is that I would never use it. 

That doesn't mean that you should refrain Craig...

Yeah, I know I have to get one sometime, it's just the question of Molasses or Ebony.

You don't have to use it to enjoy it. Look at it....admire it....whisper sweet nothings in it's ear.

But it's so big...it might scare the others...

LOL! Just tell them he's their Big Brother, to care for them and guide them through life.

I'm in my serious mind making up frame of mind between now and next Wednesday. Can you see the smoke? That's me trying to think on one brain cell. That big Panama Trapper is weighing heavy. Same thing happened when I started to think about a Gunboat last month. Hmmm.....

I was looking at those the other day......nice stuff!!

I like this carved Chestnut Bone.........

Not sure which I like better.....Bermuda Green or Hunter green.....

The Panama rapper is weighing VERY heavy on my mind. So heavy I can't move.

Won't be long now until Wednesday!

I haven't been happier collecting knives since I collected Schrades back in the 1980's! I LOVE my Case knives. GO CASE!!

I think the laser engraved Duck feathers is cool on this one!

Now that is a nice looking Trapper.  The DU Canoe with the feather jug (that you posted on page 15 of this blog) is more elegant but, I won't quibble.

Hunter green in the Panama!  The duck feathers are cool!

I know I'm going to get a Tiny Trapper in the Bermuda Green, so I might get the 54 in it too. 

SOME way, SOME how, I have to figure how I can fit two of these in my budget one month. Why two? One for the pocket and one........

I'll bet you figure it out Craig - it would be a shame not to have one for the pocket to. That's a real pretty knife.

Yeah, I've wanted one for a while now. Maybe next month.

One for the pocket and one for ME!  That was so nice Craig.  Thanks for think of your  new "old" friend Toby!   LOL  Those swaybacks are really nice!

Win I win the lottery I'll buy everyone a knife! LOL! That is if I ever start playing the lottery. LOL!

Fantastic Craig!  Put me down for a Dietmar Kressler.

Maybe I should have said "When I win the lottery I'll buy everyone a knife.......within reason."

Wednesday is here! Uh, almost here. Well, I'll be up late tonight after the money gets in the account to order knives!

So Craig, what you gonna order???

Trappers this month.

Speaking of Trappers........good article...........

http://www.knifeworld.com/ctrbytofo.html

Agreed, Craig - good article.  It is perhaps a good thing that I don't collect Trappers.

1.  The old ones are way too expensive for my taste, so I could only afford the dime-a-dozen new ones.  For a Grand, I would be looking for a fixed blade with about a 6" blade, a minimum of 3/16" thick, and "exotic" steel. Plus, I'd want to use it, and although a Tested XX trapper I might find would almost certainly be used - and expensive, I would be uncomfortable using it.

2.  The article was confusing. 

I get that the early Trappers had/have short rear bolsters, and I get the closed "C", but in that last picture with the three trappers I can't tell the top two apart.

One reason I'd never get into the old Case knives, besides cost, it would take too much studying! LOL!

The deed is done. I'm broke again.....until next month.......unless the Government decides to take all I have by then.

So Craig, share with us what you got......

Panama Trapper - Ebony

Standard 54 Trapper - Pocket Worn Bermuda Green

Tiny Trapper  - Pocket Worn Bermuda Green

Tiny Trapper - "Crandall Cutlery" Caramel Bone

Great additions to your collection Craig - Congrats

Thanks! Should be here any day.

Thinking about next month. Got a couple in mind. If this order gets me all excited, I'll probably stick with Trappers for some time. 

I need to get one of these.....I like those Long Tail "C" knives.

New knives!!

New knives here............

I have one more coming. The dealer was temporally out of stock, so I'll be getting it later sometime.

I like Dark Molasses Barn Board. Next month..........

That's a good looking little knife.

Yeah, I like the Dark Molasses Barnboard (barn board?) I have the Copperhead and 032 Stockman in it. I need more.

Yes, that Dark Molasses is sure beautiful.

Here's a picture of Max's Slimline in the Dark Molasses Barmboard.......

I need the Red Barnboard too......

Been in a little bit of a rut since I got out of the hospital. Today I decided to get out of it and made a stop on the way home for a new edc.So I bought 2. Love the buffalo horn. It makes me growl just like the stag does.

Those look really good lee! I still need to get one or two in Buffalo Horn.

My latest Case:
