EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

[JTR357]

Yojimbo for Wharncliffe Wednesday. I just installed the deep carry clip. Has anyone noticed the compression lock on the Yojimbo to be extremely shallow?

I heard that DaveHS and few others like sod busters.

I posted this in the Traditional Wooden Wednesday subforum, but thought some here would find it interesting.

On our daily walk on Sunday, a Pileated woodpecker had a couple holes started in this dead Hemlock tree. I took this pic on our walk yesterday, and it already had the tree shredded. This tree's at least 18" in diameter. Pileated woodpeckers are very territorial, and this is most likely the work of just one bird, or maybe a nesting pair.

Here's a pic of the pile of wood at the base.

And, of course, a Buck 112 for today's carry.

I just checked their range, and it looks like they're spread across some of Canada, and in the Eastern portion of the States.

We get a lot of Pileated Woodpeckers through our property. They are a big bird and their “hole poker” is savage. Haha. Such a beautiful and curious bird.
Their song is amazing. I always appreciate the times I get to come across and watch them do their work.

We have the Pileated Woodpeckers and two other kinds in the woods behind our house. We see and hear the Pileated frequently, the other two less so.

Yeah, once they start work on a dead tree, they keep at it until they have every bug out of it that they want. Then they leave. It's funny watching them ripping out chunks of dead wood, and throwing them down. It's like they become obsessed. Red headed woodpeckers, and the rest seem very dainty, by comparison.
