Man, there are some *crazy nice* knives in this thread. Fantastic works of art.

Here’s a little trout and bird knife I picked up years ago. My son has another one just like it - almost its twin. He never goes hunting or fishing without it. He usually has a rugged looking big orange handle folder in his kit, with gut hook and saw blade, but he always has the Treeman on his belt. The little 3 ¾” blade does almost everything he needs when field dressing. He keeps it in his car the rest of the year. Razor sharp and takes an edge with ease – a simple honing now and then on a kitchen steel will keep it going for months. These knives hold their edge well.

And the little Mosher sheaths are fantastic for everyday carry or throwing in a tackle box or car seat cubby. Especially thick and tough, protect the knives well, but aren’t too heavy. These little knives, in their sheaths, give a natural impression of a “basic tool.”

With its similar top bevel and overall profile, it compares favorably with a Randall #7-4 ½, coming in about 1 1/8” shorter in OAL. But of course, it’s convex ground.

Gary

Nice Treeman Gary. You'll probably get more looks in the Jim Sr. Treeman thread in the Fixed Blade Forum.

Oh Shoot... sorry, wrong place!

Thanks for the heads up.

Edit: Just read the fine print!
Edit: Moved to proper thread, but can't seem to delete it here, alas.

Senior or not Gary, I think that knife is perfect. I'm also a sucker for the Mosher sheaths and a well made sub 4" blade.

Warren- that brass back is incredible. I'm pretty sure we cranked that one out right about the time I'd started here as I remember peening the brass for one before it was fixed to the blade. It could have been a different build, but we've done so few of these (I wouldn't think more than five, since James started BMK in 2011). I'm definitely going to need that one to shoot for the coffee table book, amigo! Heck- I may just need your entire collection.

I'm continually astounded at the traction of this thread.... almost 550,000 views?!?! Amazing.

Thanks for the update Grant. I don't recall seeing any brassback blades at all, even reviewing your archives.
Remember, I want an autographed copy of the book.
Get crankin'.

This little girl got lost in the 50 or so collection. A good one to keep. Great red stag, hair popping sharp.
A great little early James Montana knife circa 2012.
