All About Pocket Knives

For some reason I like everything about this old Chicago Cutlery Stockman.
Carbon blades, walnut wood handles, brass pins, liners and bolsters with a brass shield.
It just feels right in my hand and in my pocket.....

If it cuts, then it's doing its job! Works for me!

It looks like a comfortable carry.

The only time that you post a new knife , and I actually recognize the name, is when you post one of these Butterfly knives. That is because they advertise on the NHL on TNT. That is a decent looking knife to start off the week.

An Imperial for any dirty work, and a Thomaston for a little bit of pocket " snob appeal"

Very cool, RR!

Nothing wrong with that "snob appeal", Ike. I'd show that one off too!

Picked up a new case Sodbuster yesterday. It should make a good EDC..

That was strictly a "tongue in cheek" comment considering how far down the rung ebony knives are to most collectors. Though I am always happy to find a Thomaston in any configuration.

Handsome Case that you just posted, Kerry.

Thanks Ike. It's a nice little knife. Fit and finish are very nice, great snap too!
As far as the "collector" thing. The way I look at it is if you like it in your collection, then that's all that matters. Great ebony is probably more rare than bone, but I get the way it is. Personally, I love a great wood handle knife. Especially a rare one!

That just knocked my shoes and socks clean off! Thanks, Ike, but I bet the rest of this week will disappoint you.



Thanks, toomany. I did the scale/frame swap myself, just some basic wrench turning. Is the Sodbuster gumfuddy?

TMK, I like the covers on your Sodbuster.

Nice work! Yep, that is the new version of Gumfuddy, or Rough Black.
