WR XX Pocket Knife Sod Buster Junior Jet Black Synthetic Item #095 - (2137 SS) - Length Closed: 3 5/8 Inches

I got a good one ! One concern I had is that the grind on the side of the blade, in the photos, looks very coarse and file like compared to the CV blade and other Case knives which are very flat and polished (some times hollow ground obviously). Well I went ahead and ordered the SS steel Sod Buster and figured I could smooth it my self if I had too. I have smoothed and polished the sides of knives this way before so I knew what I was getting into. No problem. Running my fingernail over the side of the knife it is much smoother than it looks and I am happy. It is a work knife and I will use it just as it came. Good stuff ! The blade is centered well enough, There are very minor gaps between the scales and the liners but they are way thinner than a sheet of paper. Hardly anything. The brass pins and pivot look great with the blue handle and I like the color of the blue super well. Just what I wanted. The blade was plenty sharp enough out of the box. It had some wire edge but most all factory blades do. I touched it up on a hone and all is great. I cut up some stuff before this and the edge performed well; many people would be pleased with how it cut out of the box. Certainly NOT DULL by any stretch of the imagination. This is, as some have said, a good sized knife. Just what I wanted. Compares to the Buck 110. About half the weight or less though. Other than the kind of long length (closed) it is very pocketable where as the 110 is like having the head of a hammer in your pocket it is a must to carry the 110 in the pouch it comes with. I carry the Case Sod Buster in an ammo clip belt pouch as I do with many of my larger folders; my Benchmade Griptillian for example. The Sod Buster is too long to carry in the Buck 110 pouch. Bottom line : Case can still do it right and this is a VERY inexpensive knife and considering that it is made in the USA for the price they are practically paying you to carry their knife. For this price they aren't making much considering the vendor has to mark it up. Truth be told if I buy a good size pocket knife made in the US for under a hundred dollars I feel like I am under paying so keep that in mind. I wish I would have bought one of these years ago. It is "my kind" of handle shape and the blade shape and relation to the handle is very useful and comfortable. The smooth handle is a little slick (at this price you won't feel back about taking a file and adding some texture if it is too slick for you. I say buy it; very useful. Good quality.

Case: I have many higher end knives. 10 or so Benchmades, CRK, Spartan, ZT, among many others. I have 4 or so $400+ knives. Case is one of the first knife brands I recognized when I was a kid. Dad grew up 30 minutes from the Case/Zippo factory and my grandfather always carried a small stainless Case everyday. When I knew next to nothing about knives, I knew that Case was one of the standards. My 1st and 2nd "Real" knives (not some cheap fleamarket/hardware store counter knife) were Case knives and I was very proud of them and still have them. What I love about Case is that they are handmade in the US and are very very affordable. Arguably the best traditional pocket knives made. The knife itself: Iv been eyeing this knife for about 4 months. I added it to my basket, then "save for later". "Add" "Save" "Add" "Save" for months. Not really needing it but really wanting it. Finally bit the bullet and I couldn't be happier. This knife is everything I was hoping it to be and more for the price. First off, its a monster. I knew it was big but after finally getting it in person, its huge. It is a full size folding knife but also fairly light for its size due to the use of Delrin for the handles. I believe the knife handles are sanded on a belt by hand. You can tell its not by machine because of the "imperfect" symmetry of the grinding. I honestly love the hand ground look/feel. I feel like it is perfect in its "imperfection" and kind of cool knowing that no 2 knives are exactly alike. This particular model of SodBuster has a harder CV blade over the more common Stainless blade on the majority of their knives. So far I am a fan and think the CV is the obvious choice of steel over the stainless. There is a slight higher risk of corrosion with the CV blade but I am not even slightly worried about this. As long as I oil it after any excessive prolonged use in water/acidic liquids/environments and maybe every other month depending on use, It should be fine. The blade has a bit of a mirrored stonewash finish, personally love it. Steel is very easy to sharpen/touchup compared to my other higher end steels. I use a spyderco sharpmaker and it only takes a few swipes on the angled white fine stones before hair is falling everywhere. Also really love the brass liners/pins in these knives. This knife is a slip-joint (no locking mechanism to keep the blade from closing if force is applied to the top of the blade) however it has excellent strong retention when opened and closed. Really the only thing that made me a teeny tiny bit sad about this knife was that the blade is not centered. However it isn't that big of a deal for a $28 knife. I bought this knife specifically to throw into my hiking/camping/overnight/daypack for abuse. It will be my primary outdoor knife for whittling fine tinder, cutting cordage, and all other task until I need one of the fixed blades. The quality for the price is outstanding and I have no desire to baby it, at first sight you can tell its made for abuse.

Decided to try a Case tradition knife because my Victorianox floral knives have gone way up in price on Amazon. This is large Sod Buster in yellow and carbon steel came to me in very nice condition. Really nice smooth action and blade centering. 🌟 Way better than I expected from the Case baseline Sod Buster. Winner winner lets skin a chicken dinner. 😋

Husband really loved it he said it was good quality. He said the color was good and it fits nicely in his pocket

Bien Super coupe Super design

Ich habe dies Messer hier bei Amazon erworben, allerdings nicht zu dem aktuellen astronomischen Preis von etwa 60€, sondern von einem anderen Anbieter für etwa 26€ plus ca 5€ Zoll (Versand direkt aus USA, hat ewig gedauert, bis der Artikel überhaupt mal verschickt wurde...). Es war im Grunde kein echter Bedarf, da genügend Messer vorhanden, sondern eher Neugierde und Interesse an einem amerikanischen Klassiker. Insbesondere vor dem Hintergrund, dass Case, im Gegensatz zur Konkurrenz (Schrade) noch in USA und nicht in Fernost fertigt und die amerikanische Handwerkskunst und Qualität in den einschlägigen amerikanischen Messerforen und von amerikanischen Messerliebhabern auf Youtube ganz überschwänglich gelobt wird, waren meine Erwartungen entsprechend hoch. Nachdem ich kürzlich erstmalig in die USA gereist bin und gesehen habe, was die amerikanische Handwerkskunst z.B. beim Häuserbau bedeutet, haben sich die Erwartungen auf ein realistischeres Mass reduziert. Heute nun kam das gute Stück endlich an. Tja..... ein süsses kleines Taschenmesser mit niedlichem Schriftzug auf der Klinge. Die Rückenfeder ist überaus hart gespannt, was einer sicheren Benutzung natürlich entgegen kommt. Die recht kurze Klinge ist ordentlich scharf geschliffen. Von der Form her bietet sie sich für Brotzeiten an. Zum Schmieren von Butter, Streichwurst etc. sicher gut geeignet. Zum Abschneiden von Wurst etc. dürfte die Klinge ruhig länger sein. Der Griff ist verhältnismässig dick für die Hosentasche und liegt trotzdem nicht gut in der Hand. Zum einen ist das Material rutschig, zum anderen istndie Kante hinte unten mitunter etwas unangenehm. Der Kunststoff des Griffes fühlt sich etwas billig an für meinen Geschmack. Die Verarbeitungsqualität ist nicht besonders. Die Niete sind nicht ganz bündig, ebenso die Rückenfeder. Auch gibt es einen kleinen Spalt am Rücken und ein klein wenig seitliches Spiel. Sind alles Kleinigkeiten, die der Funktion keinen Abbruch tun, aber man muss auch nicht darüber ins Schwärmen geraten. Mich würde es direkt jucken, mal ein made in China Schrade sodbuster daneben zu halten. Glaub nicht, dass es merklich schlechter abschneidet, aber das ist Spekulation. Kann ich nun eine Kaufempfehlung aussprechen? Für 60€ definitiv nicht. Für die von mir gezahlten 31€ (inkl Zoll)..... ein klares kommt drauf an. Wenn man Taschenmesser sammelt und sich für die klassischen Alltagsmesser aus aller Welt interessiert, warum nicht. Wenn ich ein bezahlbares Messer suche, das unauffällig ist und einen hohen Gebrauchswert hat, gibt es Alternativen mit mehr bang for the buck. Um bei den Klassikern mit eher rustikaler Berarbeitung zu bleiben, wären da das Opinel, das Douk Douk und das Mercator zu nennen. Auch bekommt man für ca. 30€ schon ein perfekt verarbeitetes Löwenmesser aus Solingen. Oder wenn es was Neumodischeres sein darf, für etwa 28€ das Byrd Tern made in China. Seit ich das habe, nehme ich kaum noch ein anderes mit. Die Einhandöffnung ist super praktisch. Wenn man das mal selber erfahren hat, mag man es kaum missen. Trotzdem legal, da nicht verriegelbar. Sehr flach und verschwindet äusserst unauffällig in der Hosentasche. Bei der Suche nach einem Alltags-Gebrauchsmesser würde ich das in der Preisklasse 1000 mal vorziehen. Fazit: (noch) 4 Punkte für das Case Sodbuster (inklusive Klassiker-Bonus)

Tengo 4 Sodbuster y esta es la peor con diferencia , la caja venia aplastada , la hoja rayada , el muelle sobresale de las cachas con la hoja abierta , las camisas de laton , sobresalen mucho mas que las cachas , el filo viene con rebarba y las cachas parecen usadas , una de ellas tiene una deformaccion ....la voy a devolver ahora mismo

Excelente calidad
