Just a tip guys, knives with multiple blades should never have more than one blade opened at any given time, having multiple blades open puts unnecessary strain on the springs and rivets!
I come from Sheffield, the home of all things that cut (and the specialised steels that make them) and was told that by a museum curator.

Eh, just did it for the pic. ? Even *I*, toopid as I am, ain't dumb enough to try to work with more than one open blade. Sometimes even that's one too many.....
Well worn every day carry lost the medallion about ten years back
I'm A fan of the case Russlock. Had one for about 5 years. Just recently lost it. Going to order another one soon.

So funny. I've been on a traditional buying spree for a few weeks and just checked to see if anyone else on here is into them and here's this thread.
I have a half dozen or so GECs, and multiple more over the years, and they are top notch.
I also just ordered a higher end Boker that looks like its going to be fantastic, too.
Here's a customized GEC I have coming to me in the nest week:
A Mudbug (maybe best working pocket knife available?) that I am trying to swap out for another GEC or Boker
And an old user handing out with a new friend

Somebody better call Case ASAP and tell them they’re ruining their knives with those photo shoots and the display cases they send to their distributors!!
I do get where mawnan is coming from. 
But customers do want to see what they're looking at before handling. Leaving it partially open for an extended period does weaken the springs/locks of course.

That customized GEC is a looker. So is the MudBug. The MudBug is hard to find at the moment. Out of stock every where.So funny. I've been on a traditional buying spree for a few weeks and just checked to see if anyone else on here is into them and here's this thread.

Totally. I’m just being that guy.
Yup, I definitely get you. ?
BTW, speaking of one thing & another, here's another of my KY Bluegrass Cases, a Saddlehorn.

After seeing that photo, I had to go search for that slip joint. Ordered one with white bone scales.
Case fan here as well...
Peanuts, and a Texas Toothpick shown...
Peanuts (closed of course, and the left end in this picture) make a nice field expedient tamper too...
The toothpick just looks and feels so awesome and “fancy”!

Some cool knives shown here, I would happily swap a kidney for a stilleto style switchblade but alas they are a huge no no over here so it's an itch that sadly ain't gonna get scratched ?

I forgot about this Italian switchblade. A buddy gave it to me forty years ago. Its definitely not a "pocket knife".
That's a beauty!I forgot about this Italian switchblade. A buddy gave it to me forty years ago. Its definitely not a "pocket knife".
Mudbug might be gone forever... with GEC stopping all SFOs and not giving any kind of idea when they might open them up again. Its def going to be years at least, from what I've heard.
I was just looking at vintage German automatics a little bit ago, lol.
I'm not sure how useful they are, but I also might need one.
