EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

Thanks for the kind words, Billy. That 24" axe was a sweet gift from my youngest son and is an unbelievably handy, well-made tool. Of course it didn't take him long to whack away at something with it and seriously ding up the edge as he can be pretty hard on tools. I thinned it back a taste with a paddle grinder and re-edged it to restore it to proper working condition.

I've got two RHK Skinny's--that No-Choil Slicer and the Sheepsfoot I posted a little later--and you're quite right, as the action on them is indeed stellar. With the ball bearings installed, which is how they both came to me, they flip out as nicely and reliably as one could want and they drop closed nicely damped under their own weight. Hinderer got these just right and, while I love my each of my other RHKs for their own particular attributes, the Skinny's are my undeniable favorites.

Haha, you raised your son right if he's buying you quality gear like that! Even if he does ding up your edge..

I can see why those Skinny's are a favorite of yours. Hopefully one day I'll be able to handle one!!

Flipping between these two.. still haven't decided which is my favorite.

We got the first snow yesterday morning, and I was surprised that some survived til this morning.

Beautiful scales.

Flipping between these two.. still haven't decided which is my favorite.

Those are both amazing. I saw a video of the bottom one. It has an amazing hollow grind on it.

My carry for titanium Tuesday even though it's been in my pocket for 8 days. I really can't stop messing with this knife. So solid yet elegant.

A break in the weather - I best take advantage of it. I hope everyone's week is going ok so far.

Congrats. That was my first Inkosi and first insingo

Beautiful scales.

Thank you. I love the hollow grind on the full size grip but was not a fan of the grivory scales. They felt much cheaper on the full size, so I treated myself to two new sets of scales. Igorded does excellent work i just picked them out.

I'll treat myself to the mini grip tomorrow.

After struggling mightily yesterday, I was actually able to get three pics uploaded this evening, albeit painfully slowly. For Ti Tuesday I went with a favorite work knife--my large 21 black Micarta Insingo, although my orange Endura is most always clipped in for the ride up here in our little corner of Vermont.

I was planning to uncover the Polaris Ranger, run it for a bit, check the anti-freeze, then take out the battery, and put our little work Ute away for the rest of the winter. It was a bit milder today--just below freezing--and I went out for a ride along our quarter-mile frontage, up to the turn-around, then back through the notch, past the cemetery, then back to camp. I was tempted to drive up the unplowed, unmaintained part of the road to our hilltop acreage, but didn't want to get stuck and have to winch out

There was about a half-run of unsplit bolts by our little log landing, so a took the Ranger down through the shallow snow, loaded that up, and went back up to the woodshed to hand-split as the hydraulic splitter is back home on Cape.

As you can see, my splitting maul is all-but unused as we usually trailer the hydraulic up here when we put up a season's wood. This one's a replacement as my older maul was stolen out of the shed by some local scum-bags who were breaking into camps and helping themselves to whatever they wanted. Fortunately, the ringleader was finally busted, jailed for a while, then sent packing to the next state where he has parole violations, and things have been peaceful again here for the last several years.

The axe is of unknown provenance as I'm unsure if it belonged to my dad or my wife's, both of whom are now departed. I sanded the head a bit to find it marked TrueTemper Kelly Perfect with a little of the TT logo left on what must be the original handle. It's nicely balanced and has a decently wedged head for light splitting, but I stuck with the maul and busted up those Beech bolts as best an old guy could.

Well this won’t be as awesome of a post as CazzyPs. But I did carry my 940-1601 while I worked on some spreadsheet sheets today.
