Thread: Simple, classic pocket folder

    I like the Buck Squire or a Case Sodbuster. But it’s hard to go wrong with a canoe, trapper, or a stockman’s pattern from any of the better makers. You can go plain or fancy without breaking the bank.

    This Old Timer 340t is in my left front pocket. Often times a 642 is found in my right front pocket.

    Take a look at CRK&T knives:

    They have some nice designs and blade steel is okay. The D2 steel is a good upgrade in the Squid.

    That may be the one. I've been reading some reviews and all the smaller Bucks in this size class suggest they let the occasional dog out the door, although far more negative reviews on the 55 than on others. May be necessary to find a store that has them in stock and pick a good one. Just like revolvers...d'oh!

    Buy a couple of Case slipjoints, maybe a used Camillus.

    They'll make it right if you get a lemon. They have excellent customer service. I had the opportunity to call them once and they came through in spades.

    That would look good next to one of my Smiths, too. Just saying.

    I saw a cheapo Remington branded china canoe knife in a pawn shop and got one. I liked it so much I bought a spare. A friend thats more of a knife geek gave me a Case canoe knife with amber bone handles for a present, and it shot to the top of the favorite pocket knife list. Really like the thin profile, and blade sizes and shapes. Just a really classy, useful knife for a real reasonable price. I wish they were made identically without the etching on the blade, but I can live with it.
