Knife in your pocket now.....

David,

Your grandfather's Case is the "Trapper" model and was very popular years ago. My grandfather was a Case Ag Implement dealer; back in the early 1950's, when they had a Case Knife promo. Grandpa got an entire display case of Case knives of all types and he gave me a trapper like that.

I carry a Bokker Gent's 1-1/2" bone scaled pocket knife and a big Spyderco. Two, for the same reason as you do.
If going out to eat, I'll pocket a pair of Gerber "Pixie" steak knives or a slim Gerber folder. My belt knives are small Jimmy Lyles' sheath knives.

You never when you'll have to do an emergency tracheotomy ! A vertical midline cricothyroid puncture and a ballpoint pen barrel or soda straw will keep someone alive until help gets there with equipment.

kinda ashamed that I don't have one in my pocket right now...........but I'm offshore and keep my daily carry on me when home.

Sadly, I have another that still cries for me from either a Venice, CA cops pocket or a lockup room.

I paid $800 for a genuine CQC-6 in 1990

Uh, Give me a call. I've got some land I need to sell..................

Got one of those, Mike, except mine has a Black T blade. I bought it back around the time of Desert Storm. I paid, like, thirty bucks for it, and the only reason I bought it was because it was so cheap; IIRC, regular Enduras were going for close to fifty bucks at the time. Emerson's were all the rage back then, so my new Spyderco was relegated to BUK status and lived on my vest.

Time passed, many of us finally snapped to fact that carrying an expensive-ass knife (I paid $800 for a genuine CQC-6 in 1990) for EDC was slightly retarded -okay, a LOT retarded-, I went into plain clothes, and began carrying this one. At some point I broke the clip (snagged it on the unit seat belt getting out), sent it back to Spyderco, and this was their fix. Crude, but workable.

I have since tried several other knives for EDC, but I keep coming back to this one. Its light, the outside contours are worn smooth (so I don't gouge my hand when going into my pocket for something else), and the AUS8 blade is easy to keep sharp.

I'm not a knife guy either, although I have a few other nice Spydercos. If that group buy deal ever materializes, I'll probably buy two just for the heck of it.

Love the pics.

The knife has been used with care and it shows.

He is referring to Emerson's earliest work they are all customs even the users are selling for 1200.00+ now. I have never even held one.

Ergos of that knife are the best aren't they.....

My newest edc replacing my griptilian the only gripe I had with it was its size. So I miss my assisted opening on my Sog even though the benchmade was very easy to open with one hand. So the 470 emissary caught my eye and I preorder it from knifeworks (outstanding people) and got it today. I got #162/1000 of the new production. The axis lock seems way smoother than the griptilian, its way faster to open, I like the feel of the aluminum handles vs plastic, slimmer, smaller, good blade shape, big win all the way around. So here it is:

 

[SirIsaacNewton]

Both of those are nice looking knives. I really like the sheeps foot blade on the griptilian I really have to get one of those....
