EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

Just got done doing a little yard work.

Yeah know, I think it's stupid that it's basically the accepted way of doing things around here that we rake up all our fallen leaves, bag them up, and send them off in the yard waste. They're supposed to be recycled back into the Earth under and around the tree to bring those nutrients and energy back into the plants and trees that are growing out of the soil, and then back again to the animals and us (not to mention how our funerary procedures corrupt the body with nasty chemicals that would seem to poison the soil instead of bringing our nutrients back into the Earth). Instead we slap them in a bag and pay someone to ship them off somewhere else. Just my random bewildered thought of the day regarding civilization today. When I get my own property I'm going to keep it natural. Strange vent over.

Hope everyone has an awesome saturday!

Here if you don't keep them we have a green wheelie bin. That the council collects fortnightly to make compost.
I live in a villa community with a dozen free standing villas. Each autumn a couple of the old blokes collect the leaves and put them in the garden bed atop the retaining wall.
Nice knife.

That's good that they collect them and put them in the garden bed for compost. That's what I'm going to do with all the Sunflower stalks and plant material this year, lay it in the garden and maybe shovel a little soil on top of it,

Thanks! I love the Firetac.
 
So, I've been absent for a few days again, as we had a family issue that needed my attention. Things are headed back in the right direction now, though, and our worries would seem to be in the rear-view mirror. I didn't have a chance to get any knife pics of the two that have each been in pocket once or twice for the last few days, so I'll re-cycle a couple from last winter of the two together here.

This old Japan made Kershaw Hawk in ATS34 and Ti is great and reminds me of the Al Mar ultralights I always wanted. View attachment 3026711

That's one I wasn't familiar with, Edge, and it is reminiscent of an Al Mar UL. Nice knife. I'm always fine with those "older" steels as long as they were done right--they usually sharpen up easily to keen edges.

That blade would be how long? My Eagles (trad Cocobolo, HD, and UL) are just under 4" and the Falcon just a taste over 3. You can still find ULs out there--always a few of the "real" Al Mars at the big auction site, all overpriced, but if you keep looking you can get a nice one for 2 bills or a bit less if you're willing.
