Well my granddaughter came over and looked at my knives yesterday and said she would like a new knife for her birthday so we got looking and she chose a delica a purple one in VG10 so that’s what I ordered from Knives Shipped Free But of course that meant I had to order myself a Pocket Worn Orange Sodbuster Jr in SS bc well bc I had my card out lol It should be Case number 90 in the collection when it arrives Your traditional collection is looking great Any suggestions about upkeep on the delica and VG10 Love you and ditto GA Adventurer
Erica she is absolutely ready for action 😮great piece…… I love my GEC collection but I’ll say it CASE does some of the best jigging on the planet….. stay well over there😊
that was an excellent job in repairing the jr. and love the leather work. got one of Richter slips on it's way! looking fwd to that! Have a great weekend!
The Synthetic handled Case Sod Busters are great additions to my collection. I am more fond of the Jr. Size, but the full size are great for heavy work.
Gotta check out the full size trappers! Main blade has more of a turkish clip shape and less of a classic clip point. I find it way more useful. Enough to justify the additional cumber lol
Love the set ups!! the orange ! Sounds like you have some Good ppls sometime u just need a wing to be under, best always come in pairs n bring light everywhere they go. Sounds like them.
cool. crazy horse and autumn harvest are the ones I chose too, havent received them yet but cant wait. Richter does do great work. been enjoying his content and convinced me to try and make my own.
Got the Oldrimer lock back after watching one of Your videos. Thanks! It proved to be a sweet little old school folder, very happy with it. Now it feels like i need one of those leather slips for it... Great channel, i like Your take on using your gear/knives.
My dad has a green canister of lube used to soften up leather that he has had for at least forty years. We always used it on our baseball gloves and leather items like boots. It also treats the stuff and kinda waterproofs them for a while. I put some on my Sorels that I keep at their house every year.
Erica, actually the "utility" blade that you have on your mini-trapper is called a spey blade. That bullnose shape has a purpose. It was originally found as part of the old English Stockman knife, a 3 blade pattern. It is designed for speying(neutering) farm animals. The reason it's designed the way it is, is so that after you slice open the sack and remove the testes there's a cord that attaches the testes to the body. To spey the animal you have to cut the cord. Problem is that after you open the sack the animal is, how can I put this, pretty uncooperative. They buck and kick and fight, ect. That blunt tip tends to prevent accidently piercing the membrane that leads into the intestinal cavity(that membrane is where men get hernia's). If you pierce that membrane you will lose the animal to infection. So the spey tip actually works as a safety setup. On the stockman patterns the spey blade is short so you can wrap your index finger over top of the dull point and only the sharp edge of the blade is exposed which really reduces the chance of incidental or accidental damage. For some reason I don't know they lengthened that blade on the trapper patterns. They do still call it a spey blade 'tho. I grew up on a farm, and that's exactly how we did it, until we finally got our hands on a modern banding machine. Pigs were the worst. We used to catch them and flip them upside down into a trash can. Then one of us would hold the legs while the other one did the dastardly deed. The first pig was no big deal b/c he had no idea what was happening until it was basically too late. But afterwards he would run and tell all of his buddies what was going on. Then they'd fight us unbelievably hard. That was always at tough day, by the end you felt like you got beat with a 2x4. Anyway that's the scoop with a spey blade. Thankfully somebody invented a banding machine! Old school speying is a nasty messy job. Oh, it's cool that you're starting to appreciate case knives. They're quirky and sometimes require a pile of work from the factory, but really can't be beat for a pocketknife. Pretty, functional, and they hold up far better than anything else I've ever used. Peace.
Yes- that’s literally what I said in the video actually! Luckily I also have done farm work and hunted and know what I’m talking about just like I said in the video😂❤ thanks for watching!
@@ericasedc Cool! To be fair it was late and I only watched about half of your video and when you called the spey blade a "utility blade" I decided to set the record straight. Perhaps a bit too soon?? Lol Have a great morning!! Coffee....
@@ericasedc Lol, yeah, I know! My apologies. Hovever, it was way late, I was tired and I'm still in a fair bit of discomfort from a total knee replacement exactly 2 weeks ago b/c I stopped the pain meds on Tuesday. I am not getting hooked on that crap. The moral of the story: spend 2 years slipping around on the ice in Antarctica, get a titainum knee, make otherwise easily preventable mistakes afterwards! Lol Have a great weekend!
We used a rubber band machine on the sheep a zillion years ago. One time my mom messed up and it's mom had died so we kept it for breeding. . Old one nut got the job done
Your friend did a great job on that sod buster, it looks wonderful! And I'm a fan of the mini trapper pattern too. Very nice pocket carry. The burlap covers on yours look really nice! Cheers!
You’ve been adopted!😊By some crusty knife guys 🎉
Awh I love it!!!!
🍻
That model of knife slip should be called ”The Coffin”.
@@kevola5739 I call them “Old Coffin “
When I get more leather I should send you pocket or belt organizer
Oooh!
I’ve got a couple of slips and things I’d like to send you, what is the best way to do that ??
Can you message me on Instagram? Or email me?

He crushed it with that modification to your lop sided case.
Those are some very nice looking slips too.
Thanks Mike!!!!

The Synthetic handled Case Sod Busters are great additions to my collection. I am more fond of the Jr. Size, but the full size are great for heavy work.
Gotta love a good Soddy!
I busted out laughing when you said it’s not patiner unless you say it 3 times 🤣🤣
Dude I was trying not to laugh!!!😂
Gotta check out the full size trappers! Main blade has more of a turkish clip shape and less of a classic clip point. I find it way more useful. Enough to justify the additional cumber lol
Too large for me!
Love this video. I make my own slips. Not hard to do. Love this stuff. Thanks for your point of view on slips.
Cheers!!!!
I'm digging those organisers and yer guy Josh did a great job of re-finishing that Case sod buster, that's how all Case knives could be and should be.
He should go show em how it’s done!
Love the set ups!! the orange ! Sounds like you have some Good ppls sometime u just need a wing to be under, best always come in pairs n bring light everywhere they go. Sounds like them.
I am literally so blessed
What kind of question is, “Are you drinking your coffee right now?” I’m smoking crack!
Right😂😂😂😂
Beautiful leather on that one from Fail-Safe! Classy look, probably buttery soft.
Yes Sir!!!
Love all those slips!!! I need to pick one up for my pioneer. I’d actually like to to get into leather work
You should!
So many awesome looking leather slips!! The coffin one is so cool! 😁😁
It is so awesome
cool. crazy horse and autumn harvest are the ones I chose too, havent received them yet but cant wait. Richter does do great work. been enjoying his content and convinced me to try and make my own.
He is fantastic!
❤that the mini trapper is working for you; such a great combo of blades!
Truth!!!
Glad I was able to fix that Case for you. It deserves to be in your rotation with the awesome leather.
You nailed it brother!❤❤❤❤❤ thank you so much!!!!
Leather is the best
Yes it is!!!
Patina, patina, patina!
Patina, all the way!
Always!!!!
Great info.Thanks Erica.
Thanks for watching!
Smoky Valley Sunrise
Thank you R!
I love the sound of happy puppies.
Yay!!!❤
Got the Oldrimer lock back after watching one of Your videos. Thanks! It proved to be a sweet little old school folder, very happy with it. Now it feels like i need one of those leather slips for it...
Great channel, i like Your take on using your gear/knives.
Really cool shit! I sew my slips myself and put an ulti-clip on them. Works very well.
Genius!!!❤
Not at all, it's really easy because you don't have to care about sewing the hem. And with the ulti-clips attached it stays in place.
My dad has a green canister of lube used to soften up leather that he has had for at least forty years. We always used it on our baseball gloves and leather items like boots. It also treats the stuff and kinda waterproofs them for a while. I put some on my Sorels that I keep at their house every year.
Love the Fail Safe ! 🤗
Ry does awesome work!
Love this stuff
So glad you enjoy it!
Love it all, fantastic EDC!!!!
Thanks a million!
@@ericasedc For sure
