Got my first Cripple Creek Whittler
Got my first Cripple Creek Whittler
I got my first one the other day. I know know anything about CC knives, except by reputation. I must say I do love the half stops and the blades move like they’re on ball bearings!

Re: Got my first Cripple Creek Whittler
A whittler in the Green River series is certainly a nice first. Congrats.

Re: Got my first Cripple Creek Whittler
Thanks. Like I said, o know nothing about CC per se, except they sure nice. I assumed that the Green River thing was for an event of some kind. (I know what the Green River Rendezvous was historically). Was that a series for an reenactment? Anything you can tell me would be appreciated.

Very nice knife, the green bone and jigging is some of the best I have seen period.

Here's a pic of the 5 knife Green River set. Sorry for the poor pic.
Re: Got my first Cripple Creek Whittler
Oh no! You mean there’s a whole series?! Dang! This ain’t going to be good.
Those are fantastic knives though. Wow!

Re: Got my first Cripple Creek Whittler
Now see, Cuz. If you didn't belong to AAPK, you would never know those knives existed and you would be sitting there fat, dumb and happy in blissful ignorance with your single Cripple Creek (and a whole lot more money in your pocket). Just saying..........
