I struggled where to post this since it isn't what some people call a "real" TB knife but it's the closest thing I have to it so far. I just picked this up last night and had to brag about it. It really is an amazing knife and is going to be in my right-front pocket.

Very nice Kerry How is the lock up on the main blade? Is it tight? I started with the TB/Case Muskrat....and it looks like I may need to play with a whittler!!

Is it tight?! The lockup is as good as it gets due to the almost 1/4"(.210") thickness of tang/lock mating. This is an amazing knife. I just learned about these knives earlier this week and I had to have one. I was lucky enough to hold this one before I bought it too which was an extra bonus. Here is a couple of other pics of the back. Notice the geometry of the master blade...beautiful!

I have been carrying a Case/Bose Hawbacker Rat for about 7 months everyday now along with other knives (including a full size ivory BPK from Tony frequently). I never expected that there would be a knife from a production company that would be good enough to earn pocket space in my pants. Well, I was wrong!! It is terrific.

If you haven't already checked out the collaborations, I suggest you do so. They are excellent knives.

I would love to have one of those Lockback Whittlers.
