Custom Job by JoeDirt!

Post by singin46 »

Here's one I posted earlier today in another thread but thought it should be posted here as well.
A factory Case SodBuster Jr, fully customized, half stop added, Briar vine filework to the backspring, swedge added to the tip for a better, more usable point and polishing the tang as well as the spine of the blade and swedge to give it that extra custom pop! Finishing off with some really nice Cypress Swamp Stump handles, satin finished for that "working knife" look. Thanks again Joe for allowin me to own one of your one of a kind Soddys! He even signed and dated the liner! ::ds:: ::ds::

There's only 6 of them handled in Cypress, Perry!
And 1 of those is a Bulldog Brand.

So that's 1 of 5 Case Sod Jr.'s! ::nod::
