Thanks Will!

Yes, I'm not much of a 'big knife' person, preferring instead to move to an axe, or golok for heavier duty tasks, but I really like this knife. My friend D. Wilson made it out of O1 tool steel, with Australian Blackwood handles, and I contoured the handle, and polished, thinned and sharpened the 6" blade to my liking. It has a leather, lefty sheath, at my request.

It's a fine bush knife, takes that fearfully keen O1 edge - although while it's at home, it's my designated pumpkin-splitter.

(It's dark here now, Will: I'll edit in another pair photo with sheath, tomorrow, my friend.)

Edit: Here you go Will Power .

A lefty configured pair.

It's a basic, sturdy, natural finish leather sheath:

Pictured with my lefty, stag covered A. Wright & Sons Lambsfoot - a thoughtful and gracious gift from Charlie C (Waynorth).

Sorry to break the pairs rule, but I couldn't leave out the third one.

The two with the federal shield share the same number. The two larger ones are 6 numbers away from each other.

Those are magnificent kid.

We'll make an exception for that exceptional trio

Here are a couple of "Gardner's " aka Pruners. Incredible knives by the father-son makers in stag and Remington bone.

Not exactly a pair. More like a full house of vintage Camillus scouts. Three from WW2. The bottom from even earlier.

I've posted the knife on top before in another thread, and wanted to share the two ("notable pairs") here. The TC (last picture) is to show for a size comparison. These are big slip joints Happy first day of summer.

A notable pair of Remingtons. Both manufactured by Camillus. Same distinctive Delrin jigging. Same brushed finish. Same UMC shield, Remington tang stamping, and Remington blade etching. Same NS bolsters and steel pins. Same 440A steel. Same stainless springs and brass liners.

Same crazy scalloped blades.
