EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

I grew up in Jersey and moved to New England around 50 years ago. My senior year in HS we moved north and west of the area close to the Palisades Interstate Park and Long Path I mentioned to a town not far south of where you were hiking. That forrest is between the two Greenwood Lakes that I visited often as a younger child but by the time I'd moved us older kids from that area would head to the NY end of the main lake as it was loaded with bars that catered to NJ teens taking advantage of the younger drinking age in that state.

Still, it's a nice area and as crowded as much of Jersey is, most people not familiar don't realize how much wild, hilly, and undeveloped woodland there is in the northern reaches of the state.

Back on topic, I'd thought about carrying my blue Biryukov today but was seduced by my Voron and its new bead which abides closeby in my Russian drawer. I carried it with me grocery shopping earlier, but when I got home pulled out the other knife too and can fondle both while watching the Celts/Sixers game.

I grew up in northern New Jersey too. My friends and I would come to Greenwood Lake NY to hit the bars. As fate would have it......I now live in the northern end of GWL. Been here since 1999. It's a good place to live, and we still have those fun bars to hang at.
 
Ok folks...I know, I know...3 posts in one day!! I’m just trying to make up for lost days. :)
It was my wedding anniversary last week, and I received this beautiful Gransfors Bruk Felling axe from my wonderful wife. 3.5lb head, 35” handle...what a joy to use. Tested ‘er out this afternoon. Swedish beauty.

Happy Anniversary for last week. Your wife’s gift reminded me that my wife also gave me one (Axe) for our first anniversary while we were still just going out. We got ourselves a couple of winners with our two. Thanks for posting and bring back some memories from 1985.
