Extra Special Occasion Knife

[315]

Don’t really have a special occasion knife but the first day I carried this one was last June 25th on my daughters wedding day. She selected it for me that day.

Different kind of special occasion, and not really “fancy” knives, but these are the knives I was carrying when my daughters were born.

The Bull Nose just happened to be what I had in my pocket the day our oldest was born, and has since become a special knife that carry on her birthday each year, as well as other important moments in her life.

The #15 for our youngest (whose name is Scout) was a more intentional choice. I wanted something in Nifebrite to match her sister’s knife, and the #15 with the SCOUT shield seemed like the obvious choice. I had to seek one out, and might not have had any luck if not for the generosity of JohnDF (thanks again, John!).

I have a SAK in wood for special occasions. And that is mostly for the knife, bottle opener and corkscrew. That I may wind up needing.

My youngest was born in ‘19 and after that, my wife gifted me this Alox Cadet with all three kiddos names engraved on it. I rarely carry it because I’m so prone to losing cadets though… however it’s definitely my special occasion carry

I have quite a few Special Knives and some of them have been gifted to me by a few of my good friends .
I carried these 2 today . I always carry them together and in slips .

I have always considered these 2 special also because of what they are . The one on the Left is the one I bought and paid for before I ever saw it or even a photo of it . The other one used to belong to another good friend . They are also always carried in slips .

When I carry any of them , they always bring back some great memories .

Very touching Harry matey, I think I know who may have owned that White Boned Lambsfoot of Charlie's - that would be a special carry!

Could be my tuxedo knives

Love these Knives!

I have seen very little about the Real Barlow knife by Rhidian, it does look to be from the Lockwood Bros Knife he made - how many did Rhidian make of the Barlow version? I think I remember Rhidian talking of this on the Catch Bit Podcast? I am not sure- so I will dive back and have a listen. That Bolster is something special eh!

It took a few minutes for me to realize that my blue peanut usually rides in my suit whenever I need to be presentable (baptisms, graduations, weddings, etc.) I hadn't really thought about it until this Father's Day when I was putting it into my pocket. I got it for Christmas 2019. There have probably been special occasions since then when I've carried something else, but I can't recall any.

It's just an easy knife to have on hand.

I carried a small silver Hoffritz SAK that belonged to my father. I actually had to use it on my wedding night, but that's a different story.

I have a 3⅜" Bulldog sowbelly in some beautiful MOP that rides quite well in dress slacks.
