I like case knives. I carry a red stag half whittler for the little jobs and a Molasses Bone Tony Bose back pocket for the bigger jobs. Love both of the knives but I want a matched set. the back pocket does not come in red stag and the whittler does not come in Molasses Bone. I thought about sending my back pocket of to get it rescaled but I cant find any one that can match cases red stag. Am I wanting the impossible?

I agree with Bob. Color wiose they sure look closely matched.

They look pretty matched to me especially if you dont hold them next to each other and as Steve says the chance of getting a match is slim and you would have to buy two new knives, you say you love both knives,my advice be happy with what you have.I would be happy with either, but mostly with that purty little half whitt...
Nice carry set, I carry a Case XX redbone 6308 and 6208, both WW2 vintage, with the good carbon steel. I usually carry a large tactical for a back pocket knife, or large folder in a custom leather pancake holster by Bill Smith a local maker. I can draw quickly or open with one hand, if needed. Comfort over function maybe right for me!
Comment by Lee Smith on January 31, 2013 at 20:16 Well after work tomorrow I have to go get a hair cut. Then I'm going out knife hunting. If I don't find any thing I like I think I'll go out hunting again Saturday. I bet I find something If not a edc maybe I'll find something for the collection. Who knows I might even buy a peanut. lol

You know.....I really like that Dark Molasses Bone. Hmmm...........

Well, if you want to go carbon steel...........Back Pocket in Chestnut Bone and a Peanut in Chestnut Bone - matched set. Or are you saying you want to stick with the 08 and a Back Pocket?
NO, I'm not pushing Peanuts................oh, okay, I am.
Comment by Lee Smith on January 30, 2013 at 21:29 Been looking but I cant find two that I like as well as what I'm carrying. I'm still looking. I'm just kind of picky about what I drop in my pocket. To picky I guess. When I pick a edc I usually carry it quite a while with out changing it. I save all my old ones though.
That is a good question right there. Now this is a crazy question, but I wonder if it would make sense to go shop for two that might match. Here is the thing though, unless you get both from the same company, they probably won't ever be the same even if they are called the same.
