Thanks a lot tvic and dogleg, appreciate it. Tvic, I love those bones too, great color for sure, but the wormgroove has taken its place as #1fave 8 OT to me. Looooooooooooove the color and the traction. Love the tight, no wobble action, the fabulous walk and talk and the perfect transitions Jeff does. Thanks again and thanks Jeffinn. ::tu:: ::tu::

Clearly, both knives are very good-looking. I find the blade of the top knife rather unusual. To my eyes (always suspect) the angle of the spine seems unusual and rises to an exceptionally high spine. Very interesting.

Thanks Dan, tvic. Appreciate the comments.
Q Steel, it's a Fox Livri from Italy. I would say the blade sort of reminds me of a Nessmuk type profile. I like the bulge on the spine for scooping and spreading stuff. Very handy and pretty light and agile. ::tu::

I know I've shown these two before, but they're just too good. The 3318 is Case getting it right. And the 3137 looks a little different now.

Pretty pair for sure. Nice to hear they did them right too. Good pics too. ::tu::

Couple #39 Sheffield Jacks by GEC. I like the bone since it looks a bit like aged, weathered ivory. And a good little size. Very similar to my #15 Boys knives and TC Barlows. About exactly the same size frame, same size spear, just a slightly different shape.

Some great bones on those jacks, I-Man! ::tu::

I can't believe I haven't photographed these two together (at least there was no such photo in my archive): Camillus 72 and 99, both about 1960s. This is some of the best jigged synthetic ever done.

One’s 6214 and the other is a 6214 1/2. The only difference is the first has a Spearpoint blade and the second has a Clip Point.

Whoa, those are nice, Tim! ::tu::
I assume the 1/2 denotes the different blade. ::shrug::
I like the spear-point better, even if it has 2 blades! ::nod::
