I've been collecting Case 6.5 Bonestag for about 10 years now, it looks great and doesn't cost as much as the real stuff.

6.5 Bonestag is probably my favorite Case handle material. Thanks for the comparisons.

I watched this video and wholeheartedly agree I have several 6.5 Bonestag knives and they are fantastic My Gunstock is so beautiful one would swear it was polished stag I will continue to purchase them and Case’s Amber Peach Seed Jig Bone knives whenever I can Thanks for another fine video and may God comfort you in this Holy Week

Indeed the bonestag looks exactly like the real stag. I already was convinced Case did a great job at handle materials, but this is a very good excample. I like to use the toothpicks for fishing, cleaning etc. and the light pull is not any problem for that. Thank you for the review Tobias.

Damn that good looking toothpic thank you for all the content, you and knfe detector are my fav knfe channels

Nice. Only have a small toothpick from rough rider but I like it a lot. Thanks for sharing, especially the info on the numbering. Awesome

Thanks Tobias for the share. That's a great looking Texas toothpick with bone stag. None in my small 'clan' ... I should rectify soon.

Great job! Thoroughly enjoyed the video. IMO: Case hit a home run with BoneStag.

The stag bone looks good. When you compared the Case blade to the GEC it reminds me why I love the copperhead pattern. It basically has both the toothpick blade and a standard clip blade.

Buzz Parker - who’s dad owned W.R. Case back in the day - said they added the point five (.5) on the tang so the knives couldn’t be sold on the secondary market as genuine stag antler.

Thanks again Tobias for another great video that has turned me on to Case medium toothpicks! Keep up the great work.

Looks amazing and classy. Thanks for sharing these Tobias.

Hi Tobias, I just ordered the Case small center swell jack in Caribbian blue saw cut. Hope it looks as nice in person as the picture. I would like to get some bone stag in my collection too. I like the RR cinamon bone stag I got the Barlow with it.

I agree with your observation, case’s bonestag does look pretty good compared to others👍🏻

Thanks for explaining why I can't find a new Case Large Toothpick for sale . Makes it easier to settle for a medium size until I might run across a used one . Thanks for the review .

As you know, I like bigger toothpicks, but I also very much like stag. But there’s certainly stag and stag! I’ve a video coming up soon that compares three stag Ettricks by three Sheffield makers. Three qualities of stag, treated in three different ways, at three different price points. I do have a couple each of Case and RR bone stag knives. Like you, I think they can be ‘better’ than some Stag, but certainly not all! Finally, I don’t buy GECs, but one of my very rare exceptions is the #12, though mine’s in aqua giraffe bone. It’s a lovely, and very practical steak knife!

Great review sir! I love my Case knives. Very nice stills at the end of your video.

Just ordered a large trapper in 6.5 bonestag. Thanks for the informative video.

The comparisons were great.

Always good to watch your reviews! Thank you!

Thanks for all the great content. I usually watch or listen to your channel when I’m doing some sharpening. I subscribed in October and I’ve watched just under a hundred of your videos so far. I dig it! Thanks again! ❤

I love stag antler and bone.

Tobias I agree that Case’s 6.5 Bonestag is usually a near equivalent of genuine stag so much so I own several examples of it However due to the influence of this video I rushed out to Cabelas and bought a Bareheaded Teardrop so there you go! Happy Easter

I like the bonestag, I've got two knives with those covers (a russlock and a mini trapper) and I want more. Thanks for showing this toothpick, it's a really good looking knife! Cheers, buddy.

Hi Tobias!!! Sweet Toothpick! Nice stag!!

Really good looking knife. I really need to get a 6.5 someday. Thanks for sharing that with us!

Nice collection ! Thanks for sharing. 😁

That bone stag looks very good. The number 12 GEC is my favorite toothpick knife. Luckily I bought it when it was new & available at dealers. For most of my toothpick knives, they are the small ones & I use those mainly for cleaning other knives. That little blade gets into places a bigger knife can't get.

Great review. I was wondering what you thought of 6.5 BoneStag. Case knives will have “Phantom” spring gaps -looks like a gap but no light leaks through. Thanks Tobias

Is the "toothpick" blade design actually meant for any special activity ? For skinning or something? Thats a beautiful knife.

Looks great to me! I'm up to 7 medium toothpicks, one of which is a Case, and another one which might be real stag but I can't really tell. Great video!👍

The Case looks good

I think it's just because we have a tradition of different blade shapes in our knives, but even if i have a few toothpicks i love it seems to me that they are somehow too thin to work with (i am 99% sure that they will work just as well as other knives). BTW a nedium sized nice Muskrat like blade is invaluable to separate the meat from the bones of a dry cured ham, something our beefier pocket and kitchen blades can't do that well.

I would love to see a Toothpick halfway between the Case and the GEC, wishful thinking but be a grat user.

The difference in Stag covers is tough to see without seeing a lot of it on knives. That can be said for the imitations too. Sometimes just buying a Stag cover knife is a letdown if you don’t see what you are getting. Bone Stag can be made to look better than some of the real thing from a distance. But; looked at closely you can see the difference if you know what real Stag looks like most times. The word Stag adds value to any knife. But; just like Diamonds there is a vast difference in values. The really best Stag doesn’t come on the average production knife. But; sometimes it does; and that makes that knife a super valuable one. It is easy to miss the word bone; when buying a knife that isn’t real stag. I have an old Camillus knife with Stagalon covers; that looks really nice. But; if was real Stag; I wouldn’t likely been able to buy it. I see Case is removing one dot from top line and then one from the bottom line to show the production year. That seems different from past practices when they used all dots. Do you happen to know anything about that? 🧐❔✨

Just curious, what's the main difference between a large or medium toothpick and a single blade trapper. They look similar and on the surface they could fill the same roll.

lovely bone stag or is it stag bone , the blade may be a little long for the UK , i just bought a case barlow in real stag two blade variant , absolutely the biz , i might give the bone stag a go if yours is anything to go by , must say you are a font of knowledge and i always check in with you if I'm thinking of picking up something new to me , give my best to kitty and skip , t t f n , p

Another awesome review Mr Gibson! Does the chunky Gec have a stronger pull?

Good video. good review. I'm looking for a case Hunter folder pocket knife. With a hard pull and great walk and talk. What year do you know of . Thanks . From Glenn CATT in Massachusetts. Oh has to have bone handle.

👍👍

Thanks for the video. I’ve been wondering, Is there a difference between a Texas toothpick and a toothpick? Is it a size based name or interchangeable? Can they ever have serpentine handles or only powder-horn? What differentiates a Navaja or laguiole from a toothpick?

Don't you mind how asymmetrical the cover thickness is?
