Re: 93 Ramsfoot at CK.net
Duffer, you have 3. I don't even have 1, yet. I am jealous.
They all are very good looking knives and your review covers all 'bases' and all score 'perfect'. This is very special. Now i'm even more jealous

Re: 93 Ramsfoot at CK.net
I like the knife and I think the shield works with the knife. It is a large knife and the scale and the large shield seems to work for me. Although I do believe I would have liked it better if the shield were rotated 90 degrees to the left so the Ram is a little easier to see when the knife is horizontal (see picture below). The shield does have some nice detail work as shown in the enlargement.gsmith7158 wrote:Well I just paid for my 93 rams foot in antique jigged bone that I had reserved at CK but I'm a little iffy on that big ole Rams head Shield.

Re: 93 Ramsfoot at CK.net
The Waynorth version has upgraded componentry (steel liners, pins, bolster work, etc.). I like the lambfoot blade profile better as well. Although I have to say I like both knives, but the Waynorth version a little better. Please pardon the slightly mismatched camera angles.Cletus Awreetus wrote:I just gotta say, the CC Waynorth sfo completely blows the standard 93 right out of the water.

Re: 93 Ramsfoot at CK.net
Excellent comparison Jerry! I missed the lambs foot but I do have a possible trade in the works for one. Hopefully I will get it. I was very impressed with the the cocobello 93 so I'm sure I'll get used to the Ram shield. I think this 93 run was a good one for GEC.

My Original Ram Foot came today. The Ram shield is much nicer in hand than it looks in pictures. I'm well satisfied with the two that I chose.

redrider, the first handgun I ever owned was that one in .32 S&W long. $37 brand new out the door with 5 bullets to put in it. Bought it a couple of days after my 21st birthday.1967redrider wrote:Reminds me of this old knife.

I just paid for two #93 Northfield real rams foot knives. I just spotted this picture on Face Book. The real #93 Lambs foot and #93 Rams foot knives are the exact same dark chestnut color with different jigging.

Re: 93 Ramsfoot at CK.net
You guys must be super fast at responding to email alerts of knives available. I have received quite a few emails saying 'new batch of #93 available' but every time i check i see "Sold Out". Other than sitting in front of computer and refreshing email every 2 minutes for a few days, there is no other way because these sell out in minutes. There are a great many #93 on ebay right now. I do not understand how flippers can score multiples of this pattern. One seller has 15 listed.
Because i always arrive after 'Sold Out' i do not get to see the prices. Did someone recently post prices for the various #93's ? I would like to know how much extra ebay sellers are charging. I will pay more than original but i do not want to feed greed.

Re: 93 Ramsfoot at CK.net
I am like you, always sold out, but i'm in Australia so that can't help. I think i saw them around the $90 mark on one site. Pretty sure that was the price.kootenay joe wrote:You guys must be super fast at responding to email alerts of knives available.

Re: 93 Ramsfoot at CK.net

Re: 93 Ramsfoot at CK.net
The one i saw was the cocobolo. But i think they were all roughly the same price range. Micarta may have been a bit cheaper.

Roland, 92.90 from KSF for the Autumn jigged bone, 90 even from CK, 77 dollars for the Cocobolo. I think the Micarta was around the same price as the wood handled one, not sure about that.kootenay joe wrote:$90 for Micarta ? or also the wood handled one and jigged bone ?

dog, not to hijack the thread but that is exactly what this is, .32 S&W long Model 732.

I believe the Waynorth version was significantly more than GEC bone knives, but I don’t know what the initial price was.Sharpnshinyknives wrote:Roland, 92.90 from KSF for the Autumn jigged bone, 90 even from CK, 77 dollars for the Cocobolo.

Re: 93 Ramsfoot at CK.net
Wow, sorry, i should not have questioned the "$90". I am surprised how low they were priced. I guess this is because the only prices i have seen are on ebay. This dose of reality is helpful. Thank you all.

Re: 93 Ramsfoot at CK.net
If I remember correctly, the Waynorth was 145, if you could get one. I felt fortunate to have only paid 200 for mine.

Haven’t taken many pictures lately, catching up with the 93’s of late.

Re: 93 Ramsfoot at CK.net
You panicked me into a stampede and I just ordered one in Antique Autumn Jigged Bone. It was the Ram's Head shield that pushed me over the edge. Had to be because I'm not even fond of single blade or bare end jacks. And here I was (and still am) waiting for Monday to order a couple of $20 knives.Onearmbladejunkie wrote:I just bought a NOS #93 Tidioute Rams Foot knife.

Re: 93 Ramsfoot at CK.net
JSR Has a new batch of #93 Rams Foot knives , right now. Two Cocobolo #93s very dark. I like the dark one better. You hold then up to light and they pop. I bought the lightest one because , I already have a darky. There are seven #93 Oily Creek bone knives. Three are 1/3 lighter and four are super dark oily creek bone. They won't last lone. All gone , I helped two collectors find a dream knife today. FUN!!!!jerryd6818 wrote:You panicked me into a stampede and I just ordered one in Antique Autumn Jigged Bone.
