Give it to me straight -- a celebration of coping, lambsfoot, sheepsfoot, and wharncliffe blades.

That one certainly is!

Thank you Will! It is primitive bone indeed.
And our Straight and Narrow is the path of the Serpentine Sirens ... is it not?

Took longer than I thought to post after I cut myself during opening the knife for the first pic! Found out I was out of band-aids and had to go to the store !
Anyway, here's my contribution to this great thread.

I know that I have a few but certainly not even close to what Jack Black has . His are incredible and just go on and on . IMHO the Sheepfoot and Lambfoot blades are the most versatile of all the different types that I have tried .

As I Look at my knives, I see that I am partial to the straight edges.

 

[black mamba]

I love a good straight-edge; although I prefer them as a secondary blade, I have single blades as well, and the sheepfoot is my favorite.

I particularly like the size, shape and the tip on the GEC Cuban stockman's sheepfoot

I, too, like the straight edge. However, in many situations a curved edge with some belly is vastly preferred. This is precisely why so many of the pictured examples in this thread have both. Two of my personal favorites are GEC's #35 (both Churchill and Calf Pen Jack) and the two-blade #48 from the 2107 run.

 

[Peregrin]

One more, for now.

Wow, some great-looking straight-edges folks

Ouch! Taking photographs is the most dangerous thing I have ever done with a knife I think! A fine collection OG, what is the bottom knife in your Lambsfoot pic? Beautiful re-covered Belgian clasp knife
