Case Hobo (so far I can't bring myself to get it dirty) and a Case Folding Hunter.
The sheath that came with the Hunter isn't very good, I'd like to find someone to make one.

Phenomenal leather work. You can see many examples online at bladeforums.com or elsewhere on the net. Great guy.

Bob Schrap also does great leather work.

The Leek has been dethroned! The Dividend is the new EDC. And a clinch pick so I don’t get kilt in da streets of course.

What blade steel?

Thanks for another forum to join- my wife already says I spend enough time on pistolbook

I think my account there dates back to 1999 or 2000 though I haven't posted in more than 10 years.

Your memory and keen wit belie your age if you are truly retired. Lol

I have at least a decade to go before retirement, if not two, and yet I can’t seem to remember what I ate for lunch.

This is the 440HC. I am waiting on the M390 model to come back out.

I'll probably never have a genuine Anso but I'll make do with these...

Finally! I managed to rescue this one from USPS Jail. I commissioned this piece for a friend who has just started his Army career. He earned his jump wings at Benning a couple of weeks ago ago and is now goinng through SF selection. I figure a Grunt who has jump wings, could use a ‘Chute Knife.

This one was made by John April of Goshen, MA. A single hunk of Peter’s Heat Treated CPM-154. Blade length a little longer than usual (5.5”). Black micarta with yellow liners, Loveless-style “eye bolts”, double guard is pinned and soldered, and a black leather veg tanned sheath. John was fantastic throught the process and produced a great knife for my friend to carry with him as duty calls. Balance is perfect with this knife being long but not overly heavy, it balances just behind the guard. It sits firm in the hand and is quick to transition. I like it so much, I kind of wish it was going to be mine. But alas, this one is off to a good home.

Most impressive to me is John’s work shaping and tapering the scales. He manages to get an almost damascus-like pattern from the Micarta. True talent!

Somebody's gotta be the responsible adult.
