The third Wednesday is fast approaching....

Yes. I feel it in my bones. My hit-enter-button finger is itchy.

So what and how many is it gonna be?

I'm a little short this month (it's a long boring story), but one that I will get, come hailstones or high water, is a pearl 33. After that.......it hurts trying to decide. I'm gonna pop a vessel.

You're right Billy, that Deep Canyon is good looking!

Saw a picture of the new jigged Buffalo horn. I like it.

And, the word is, a Seahorse will be made with it and out around October.

Seahorse, breaking fee of the vault?  Someone get the smelling salts for JJ

Yep, the Seahorse be a comin'!  Can you hear the hoof beats....or, uh splashes?

Here's a picture of the Jigged Buffalo Horn....

I did the deed. Knife stuff in coming.

Okay... I'm coming out of the closet.  I do not like the Seahorse Whittler.  I know I'm supposed to but I don't.  There I said it.  (and yes I do suddenly feel like I'm in that dream where you find yourself back in high school sitting at your desk naked.)

That was a dream?....

The Seahorse is a good basic "Wharncliffe" pattern. I've always liked that type of pattern, therefore I like the Case Seahorse. 

I need the Jigged Buffalo Horn

I like the Seahorse.  I'd like it better as a half whittler.  I'm weird that way.

I do believe it is very popular.  I'm very happy for those who collect them.  I can think of several patterns I'd rather see produced, however.

LOL, it was the predecessor to the seahorse that got me hooked so I still love it 

And.......I have just joined the Seahorse club.

Lee Smith - "I need the Jigged Buffalo Horn"

There's supposed to be a Stockman too. I'm hoping it's the 33, 032, or 75.

Hahahaha.  Way to go Tobias!  Can't like every pattern or you'd be broke collectin em; especially on that "Third Wednesday" "Fixed Income".  Not to mention that if a guy likes every pattern he's wishy-washy and can't take a stand/make a decision (unless he's rich as Croesus where he can buy em all).  Now, a Canoe don't look nuttin like a Congress, and a fella can like both but I understand if he likes one or the other.  Couldn't give me a Cheetah, but if folks like em it's okay with me.  Naturally, they are a bit off plumb, but as they say down south: "Bless their hearts".  Hahahahaha. 

Well, on this haul, I have several "firsts". First Seahorse, first Case Congress, and first Case pearl (33 Stockman). 

Now, can I be patient? 

Oh yes, I also ordered a Case cap.....the one with the mesh back......for my hot head.

Hey, look at this.........Snow Leopard Jasper

Craig...

Snow Leopard Jasper Stockman.  Nice.

That is pretty enough for a dress knife.

You need that Craig.

I have to say that the Jigged Buffalo horn looks purdy good! I like that one for sure!

Great looking Case knives!

Nice shipment of knives Ivars.  I like em all!

Great looking haul of Case knives Ivars!

That Snow Leopard Jasper is really cool, but I'm on kind of a quest to get some Case pearls. I have to see how much the voices in my head bug me about it.

Well, I guess I find out soon if the Seahorse measures up to all the "hype". LOL!  We'll all be in JJ's Secret Seahorse Society.

Yeah, I'm anxious to get them Max. They will help decide some things for me too.

The Seahorse is sweet, but it ain't bumping my Norfolks and Humpbacks.

I DO want a Humpback Whittler.....both full and half. I've been looking at this one lately............

After I get my Seahorse, it will help me decide if I want to go ahead and get this one.............

I'm a half whittler (half whit?) kinda guy.

Go for it Craig!

I used to be sort of a two-blade kinda guy. But then I decided it was cool to have three different blades in what is the same size frame as the two blade version. But I'm not adverse to a two blader. 

Let's see, going by your posts, you're a bone head half whit? 

Is that all you can say all the time; "Go for it Craig!"? You're not helping my condition. 

Bone head half whit....Have you been talking to my wife?  LOL

Let's try this one....You should get that Craig!   Mwa-ha-ha

No, you're wife doesn't say anything that nice about you.

Hey, Cass just told me she got another bonus from work. She said she will buy a knife of my (and her) choosing for me. Hmmm.......

I hear pearl is the in-thing this season...

I showed her the Snow Leopard Jasper. She likes. We'll see.

Good luck!

Snow Leopard is nice but this is my favorite! Purple Spiney Oyster

Them's purty.

Wow, those ARE......uh.....wow. Hmmm, I really like that Snow Leopard......but the Purple Oyster is really nice too. 

Saaay, do you have to live in Texas to get a toothpick?  These are two nice ones, Max.

Ok since Cass is half of the deciding factor, it's the Snow Leopard. I love those pearl strips in it.  The Purple Spiny Oyster will have to wait until......sometime.....maybe next month?

 I would like a 4047P Jigged Buffalo Horn!!!
