Re: Some Queen Robesons
A couple of Queen Robesons. That red stag is one of my favorites.
Re: Some Queen Robesons
Those are some beauties, c-man62! I myself have recently discovered a fondness for Red Carved Stag Bone (RCSB) which is the same as ACSB but dyed Red instead of Amber (although personally, I feel Crimson is a better descriptor than Red, JMO, YMMV). Just like ACSB, RCSB looks so much like genuine Stag that it can sometimes be difficult to tell it's actually bone, not antler.chickenman62 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 20, 2024 12:30 am A couple of Queen Robesons.

This Robeson by Queen Slimline Trapper that I got from SharpShinyKnives AAPK store is only the second RCSB knife I've added to my collection, but I hope to add more in the future. I think the rich, deep crimson color is every bit as nice as the red bone on the older (pre 1980s) Case knives and even more lustrous. Queen did a masterful job on the MasterCraft RCSB series!

Re: Some Queen Robesons
Glad you like it Q. I think these Queen Robeson’s are every bit as good as S&M, just different scales on them.

Re: Some Queen Robesons
TBH, I actually like it more than I thought I would. I prefer the beefier blade on the S&M but I bought this one for the RCSB scales and was pleasantly surprised with the strong snap...did not expect that on a Slim Trapper with such a slender blade. Also, I like that it has no half stop. Most my folders have a half stop so I'm just used to it. But it's nice to be able to open and close the blade in one smooth motion for a change. Not saying one is better than the other, just fun to experience something different from what I'm used to.Sharpnshinyknives wrote: ↑Fri Sep 20, 2024 7:07 pm Glad you like it Q.

Here are a couple more of my red stag bones. The Muskrat was a fine purchase from Mark of Sharp & Shiny

Re: Some Queen Robesons
Let's change color a little bit. I really am growing quite fond of these Queen Robesons.
Re: Some Queen Robesons
I'm usually not a fan of green handles but in this case I will make an exception. That is a gorgeous knifechickenman62 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 07, 2024 8:11 pm Let's change color a little bit. I really am growing quite fond of these Queen Robesons.

Re: Some Queen Robesons
Beautiful John. I’m a big fan of these Robeson by Queen knives. I think they are every bit as good as Schatt and Morgan. Here are a few of mine. I love the fiddleback whittler pattern. Green is my favorite color so I would be hard pressed to pick the favorite from the 3 whittlers shown in the second photo. The RCSB is such a looker and so is the Italian jigged blue bone, this pattern looks good no matter what is on the handles.

Re: Some Queen Robesons
Another beautiful addition John, glad you like it. Love that humpback whittler pattern and with RCSB it’s a killer.
