Here is my latest Short-Line... It is in good EDC shape with tight blades and will go into the "the 5th pocket" for carry and use after a cleaning and patented "Smitty warm mineral oil soak" ... however I think I blew it by going with this #67 and not getting a #72 at least the guys on #72 thread seem to think so... ... I apologize in advance for my foolhardy and reckless behavior...

GSPTOPDOG, it doesn't have to be either or. It can be both.

Thanks Dog, however, in an act of penance and with a hope for atonement I am carrying my Short-Line #72 today ... I hope I can be forgiven...

That's not penance, that's pleasure.
Re: Anyone have "Short-Line Fever"? It's better than Covid-19
Floyd ,agree that’s pleasure to be able to carry any 72,and a short line ,go for it .
G dog. - you all are talking about the old nags out there and agree. On the bay it’s crap shoot at times with the bidding and the way guys set up there computers ,but have gotten a few gems from the bay and found a few great sellers . Hang in there with your fever,good luck out there

Somehow I missed that post yesterday. A very nice 72, and the rock it's sitting on looks pretty cool, too!

Re: Anyone have "Short-Line Fever"? It's better than Covid-19
Thanks, I really like carrying the 72, looks like I will have to get a few more ... .... The blue in the rock should be copper that has become oxidized copper. Sometimes you can find some pretty big chunks around here

Fished this little short line 12 out of the bay recently. It is a first year short line as it has the bone handles. Some blade wear but pretty pleased with it. Thanks for looking.
