I can't compete with the wonderful collections you all have, but I sure enjoy looking at 'em
.
Here's a couple I bought several years ago, the congress is my wife's and the stockman mine ... both were manufactured in 2007. They both have outstanding walk & talk and sharpen up slicker than snot on a doorknob. Wish I had purchased more from this era ... I do own a few more Bulldogs, whittlers, but have very weak snap, not sure of the year on those, they are tucked away right now.
I was always curious if the handle material on these 2007's was a hybrid of corelon & celluloid or all celluloid or all corelon? Any ideas? There does not appear to be any shrinkage or damage of outgassing, but I understand that can occur at anytime, without warning. I keep these segregated just to be on the safe side.
Thanks for lookin' ...
