You're a fixture in the community el gigantor , you can't leave! But if it's something that you have to do for yourself, we understand.

This is my last post for a while and I wanted to showcase the four folders I’ve narrowed my collection down to. These knives are perfect for me, and everything else has to go!

Holy crap, you win the prize of best picture of the day! It's not easy getting both the knife and a bird in the same pic next to eachother, I've spent a bit of time trying to get that right.

Thanks ! Mostly luck , although the kids put peanuts on those posts so it’s not uncommon for them to come by.

Back to the present time again, after yesterday's retro-VT post, our friends M maxjeg and timberweasel 's contributions this morning got me digging out my Al Mars both to identify their knives and to pick out one to carry this morning. I'd figured, wrongly I think, that Max's was the non-exclusive Eagle HD in AUS8 and G10, but closer inspection of his pic and one of my knives have me thinking it's a UL, like mine in linen Micarta and probably AUS8. (Mine's unmarked for steel.) As for timber's knife, that seems to be a Falcon Classic, maybe with cocobolo scales, after comparing it to the rivet pattern on my Falcon Talon in polished Micarta. I expect they'll let me know if I'm guessing wrong.

I feel really fortunate to have the five authentic Al Mars that I do--four "birds" and a SERE--and I'm thankful to Barman1 and woodysone for two of them. Mine are all Fadden-era examples which were still being made in Japan after Al's unfortunate demise and are high-quality pieces with old-school features. Anyway, I grabbed my ZDP-189 Eagle HD this morning and stuck it in pocket before heading out to the vet's for our cat's post-surgical follow-up visit.

Getting home I noticed the knife was kinda stiff opening/closing and did a little flushing out and pivot adjustment. I got a chance to use the new WIHA kit I picked up a while ago from an online tool seller I frequent. WIHA stuff is great quality but pricey and I'd had my eye on this little set for its variety and especially its mini ratchet handle and slip-collar extension and jumped on it when it showed up at half price.

His Arcolinea is slicing machine in the kitchen! I got mine secondhand, but it inspired me to commission 3 more kitchen focused blades with the same handle so I could have a matching set of knives!
