It's got to be the old Rookie - with the G-10 scales it just feels so good in the hand. It would be great to see this excellent knife back in a sprint run.

Hi Guys
i'm for the Police Model, have 1 tufram no police marking, and another marked POLICE MODEL and no indication of blade steel amongst my 16 C07's.
Renegade is also very cool, nice and light with that great swoopy blade, only have 4 of those so far!!
Good Thread

I would like a CFIFP - Ironstone Flat Iron Folder. Loved the look of it very since I saw it on Ted's site. Guessing its as rare a hen's teeth :(

Do I see a linerless G-10 Police there on top?

Hi Alex ~ Aye ye do indeed see the Original linerless Police - specially sourced from from Mr Hasegawa of Hamonoichiba, he had it on a display shelf...the last one, all I had to do was ask and he seem to understand me okay. :D

How's your pc spec these days? I always meant to dig out any spares I might have lying around to send to you if you wanted them, let me know what you need, will ye?.

Hard to say what my favorite is, but I do love the Rookie, and agree that a sprint run in G10 would be great. Great picture of some very sweet looking :spyder: s Al.

Obviously I LOVE the Wegner JR PE, but another older one that I dig is the Co-Pilot SS, PE. That is a great little TOUGH knife. All the others after it (from Navigator to Meercat) are lesser copies in my books. It's been in my pocket for about a week now and I'm appreciating it more and more...
