Morning coffee, with a dollop of tallow rendered from the trimmings of last night's steaks, as I bundle up on the front porch and watch the mist over the mountains. Carrying Buck/Boker/Victorinox

Alright, am I losing my marbles or are there some special serrations on that spyder?

I'm being talked out of my EDC....a guy at work who nabbed a chef's knife from me last year in a charity benefit I did last year, thinks I can just "Whip up" a matching pairing knife just a couple weeks before Christmas, for another gift for his wife...... Haha. :/

I told him the best I could do is offer up my Non-matching mesquite handled EDC. it's sorta like a pairing knife?


I'm still a little reluctant, as I made it for Myself, and it makes me think that a maker really doesn't Own anything....."what we can touch is just temporary" or something like that. Idk?

-So that leaves me going back to my older one. It's Good D2, but handle heavy, and I drop it Alot.

I would sell him a gift certificate for a knife made to her specs with delivery sometime next year

I Have a blank with the same steel/treatment as mine, but I wasn't going to be able to get it until after the holidays.... I wasn't about to bump his order in front of everyone else.....although I Did get some scorn for that the other day.....by someone.
I can't help it, I'm slow.....take it or leave it...Ha, that's part of the Charm. ;p

I’ve only recently began looking into knives and learning about their differences in design and use but for now i have a cheap Byrd folding knife that helps me with basic everyday tasks and I quite like it a lot even though it’s not fancy by any means.

Snappy Sunday...grabbed the Hawk Knives designed "ZT0650ST" with their CrossFire lock, one of the few automatics produced by Zero Tolerance

Not losing your marbles. I had this one for over a decade while working on drilling rigs. Reground it to a high hollow and the serrations after work changed. Cuts significantly better through material.

Nice job on that folder....

Thank you

Those look far superior to the stock serrations.

Working on a few of these little guys, handle is inspired by the Case Trapper, but my interpretation. Drop point in S90V. the clip point bowie has a 6 inch blade for size comparison.

It does create less hand fatigue since the change. Will need to run it through marine ropes to truly test it, but not close to a coast any longer. For general lake boating I enjoy it above stock.

Trying out a leather noose knot on my Nazca. The little “C” shaped cutout at backspacer digs into the meaty part of my palm below my little finger when working the crossbar lock. Hopefully this will give some relief; I enjoy carrying this knife.

Not in my pocket today, but doing a little cleaning and touching up. I forgot how cool the colors on this one are. I need to clean it more often.

We received about 4” of rain yesterday, so the Salt wanted to go for a swim.
