Video

I appreciate your channel and your videos. Back several months ago you aired a video on Harvey’s Hardware in Land O Lakes, and all his Case knives. I happened to be in the area this week and visited there and even bought several knives. Paul told me to communicate with you he was trying to get in touch with you. He lost your contact information. So, I’m being a friend and reaching out to you. If you need his phone number I am glad to get that info to you! Thanks again for all your videos!

Nice little single blade trapper but $100. Seems a little expensive for such a small knife. Enjoy it.

Sweeeeet lil knife! I’m gonna have to try finding me one of that pattern. Thanks for the video John!

Well I have never seen one but I see they made them in other models as well so it may be something I look into in the future but I’m going to buy a RED folding hunter before I make that decision.It’s a keeper and you already knew I would say so.I’m not sure I could spend $100 for one?👍🇺🇸

Very nice! I really like that rattle snake pattern. I wish Case would do a new series like that.

Sharp scale design.

Thank you for showing this Case model, I have a 2022 two blade model in Sambar Stag it has secondary Wharncliffe blade. It is not a presentation model and came in a normal Case box. Case also made a small Muskrat that is about the length of the smallest stockman.👍

Very cool!

Hey John, that's a little beauty!

Thats an awesome rattle snake. Great looking knives

When it comes to Slipjoints Case wins , but when it comes to lockbacks and belt knives Buck definitely wins. There was a time when Buck could hold their own with slipjoints, but those days are long gone. The snap on their slipjoints is pretty weak these days, and their hollow Saber grind isn't as good as the full hollow grind Case uses. Back in the 90's the full flat grind buck used was so much better. The 420HC from Buck is better than the Tru Sharp from Case, but it's hard to beat the carbon steel from Case when they offer it on a knife you want in a cover option you want. The elk stag from the Buck custom shop is nicer than any stag Case offers too.

Sweet looking knife, I was actually at a flea market this past weekend and there’s a guy there who used to own a knife and gun store, he’s selling off his remaining inventory, I got a nos case sodbuster with dark scales and the blade has the engraving of a farmer with a plow, I gave 25.00 for that knife!!

I am currently experimenting with using 12% hydrogen peroxide to bleach the dye out of some bone handles before dying them. normally 6% is recommended / used, but I couldn't find 6% and 3% didn't work. I knew the 12% would work but the question is whether roughly 24 hours in that 12% is enough to harm the bone in any way. If you're not familiar, you just leave your knife submerged in the peroxide for a day or so until the bone is bleached out. when using peroxide to bleach yellowed plastic the process calls for leaving the item in direct sunlight, so that is what I'm doing here. just a warning though, the peroxide soak does effect the polish on the bone and you'll need to bring the luster back.

I like it. Ive been wanting one

Like you I love the Case brand, but for the price, they need to take more time on QC. Dadgum, when Rough Rider for under 20bucks is kicking butt on the #1 US pocket knife, come on CASE. Pay attention to your customers!

I used dye on a tabletop to get it riley black couldn't find a wood stain dark enough worked absolutely grate

I want this knife

John this didnt really work for me. Maybe im not being aggresive enough or im not doing it long enough. I will try some more. Im guessing it will work or you wouldn't have ever made this video😂 thanks again for sharing.

Good improvement to the knife. I am impressed that you were able together the blade back to the center.

I like the Bear & Son Barlow, I like Case, I think it's just a personal preference.

I’ll give it a try, too. Great information. I have several of the newer Case knives with that problem.

Awesome tip brother! Great video!

I've got Case knives from the 70's and up. Even the 70's knives aren't GEC quality on the finish. They're better than the modern models, but Case has never really made GEC quality knives and the prices reflect that. With GEC and now China pumping out very high quality knives, Case does need to step it up.

Check your email my friend.I ❤️ the SHARK👍🇺🇸

I think case is more betters

I love seeing a used knife that shows its history, like how this one was a safety award. It really adds to the experience to know more about where an item came from.

Pretty sweet deal. Not a fan of honking blade etches either, but the shark looks ok. Came out way good. Very cool John.👍🇺🇲

What is it???

Sweet knife! Thanks for the video!

That was one cool safety award from that company. That Case eraser was amazing, haven’t heard of anything like that

Just became sub, caught a couple on your older video, I especially liked CASE vs Others. I am a big Case fan, I do have Mako's big brother the Hammerhead. Nice knife.

that's a beaut for sure!

Very good review to bring a used knife to full function after having been ignored.

Actually,that is a 33 OT..Oh Tee..,stands for Old Timer

I like any knife with a Shark on the blade. Very cool.

Absolutely awesome looking knife. I love the case maco

Thanks for the demonstration!

5:00 that is surprising how quickly it got black, I must have some junk polish 😂 Cool knife, I’ve never seen the Case Mako model before. Thanks for the video.

Those are beautiful blades! Thoughts about case richlite copperlock?

Hey brother, can I send you some off-centered knives?

Cactus Jigged Bone is a perfect name. Is one Angry Kid Food safe? I use most of my Traditional knives in the kitchen for food prep. I was thinking about using Food grade Mineral oil on all my knives but some people question its toxicity. Also Have you ever used Alcohol based Leather dye like Fiebing's Their British Tan seems to be a very close match to the brown in R.R. Cinnamon Stag Bone series. I use Fiebing's to stain wood often as well as Bingo Markers which are water base. Bingo Markers might also work well on Bone Knife scales with out having to heat the dye up first. Any way, Thank you for showing your process. Glad I subscribed.

Ok, I just stopped the video and tried this several times with my Rough Ryder Bow Trapper and it did not work. There is a bit of play in the main blade in half stop position. Can there be a different issue and maybe a different fix to the blade centering issue?

That Case Gunstock is a beauty! I need to buy one of those! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for your insightful views on knives. You mention centering the large blade on this gunstock trapper; I have a Schrade trapper that I bought used with a Spey blade that closes on the outside liner. How can I correct this condition?

They're just tuff great knife ive own mine for about a year now still very stiff not a problem for me cuts everything well thanks

Man love case brotha

Like everything but those green scales! Prefer amber or the more traditional shades. Glad Case is still made in U.S.A.! Enjoy, Blsgs, gg

That's a great tip, man! I'll definitely keep that one in mind. Thanks!😃👍🏻

John, How’d you get the blade to look like that? Got a video on it?

Thank you for the great info. Gonna try it.
