deputy tom Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 5 minutes ago, Eric said: This is the only Spyderco knife I still have. I somehow managed to give away all the GT Spyderco knives even. I thought I kept one back for myself, but I screwed up. The knife below is one of a series of knives that Spyderco made in partnership with Jerry Hossom. They are discontinued and hard to find. I'd love to get the others in the series as well. I remember those. tom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Historian Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 3 hours ago, Eric said: I would really like to find some old Case or Buck or Schrade knives in good shape. They have a following and carry some value. When I was growing up, those old black and silver Buck knives is the image that the word 'knife' called to mind for me. Those are all quality old folders. Anyone of them would do. The older the better. Case still makes a lovely knife. Buck just means knife to me. Like you, when i was a kid, it was the thing. They still make a nice knife but their edge sometimes needs work. I don't know. Doesn't seem right to put on your pants and not have a Case or a Schrade on the pocket. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huaco Kid Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 I've got Dad's 119, that I gave him as a gift, 40 years ago. I found it in his fishing stuff, after he died. I got half a dozen more. Not sure where they all came from. I got a couple Frontiersman's. I think, because that's what the Manson family used. You can split firewood with them. And Hollywood elite.

Huaco Kid Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 I've got my 112, from elementary school. We were allowed to have them on our belts in elementary school. I don't recall anyone ever getting stabbed. Maybe stuck in the middle of a foot, playing mumbly-peg, which we were allowed to do at recess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically, I once found a place that sold a lefty version and it was ackward for me as well, having used the right-handed version for so long. Stupid right-handed people. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minervadoe Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Three knives that I can carry even with a bulky cellphone in the same pocket. Top to bottom: Benchmade Mini Freek, Benchmade Bugout, and Spyderco Delica. Here's a picture of them closed (since this is the way that they spend 99% of their lives). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has one of the tightest, smoothest actions I have ever seen and I love the grind of the blade. I like the look of the overall knife as well. It is a clean look. Let's see your carry knives. Holy crap! Böker makes steak knives that are the same model as my folding knife! And only $100 a pair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read a great history book by a Marine who managed to leave a scar on his hand with one of these: While he was on Guadalcanal it was not as big a concern as one would imagine. Dean Ladd. He's still alive. I have his autograph on the wall to my left. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostinTexas Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 (edited) This is a Small Stockman, Case. Stag handle. I have one that is up in age. I almost choke d when I saw the prices now. The whole thing is about 2 1/2 inches folded. I won't be carrying this one any more. Edited July 11, 2020 by LostinTexas 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first one was the same version. But the large model. Wear it to Sunday dinner. That knife was meant to be used. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
