Hmmm...I think I prefer knives from a certain color palette

Dang, you've got some nice ones! The Norfolk and the A.G. Russell are really catching my eye.

What is the Teardrop Jack with the Federal shield? Second from the right in the top row.

I like your color pallet choice as well

Thanks and good eye. That's Charlie's Harness Jack #2. One of my favorites with a really well ground, well tapered blade and needle-sharp punch. Bill Howard made that when he was at Queen.

Here's a shot with blades:

Thank you

I think this might qualify:

The jigging on that harness jack is just phenomenal, the kind of quality you'd like to see executed on every style of jigging. It must be a joy to touch and feel.

I'll second that. That Harness Jack is stunning!

Nice choice of knives and color palette - a chestnut color is hard to beat. OH

In other words, any color is good as long as it's golden brown?



Beautiful picture (as usual)-- thanks for the smile.

Thanks Neal and Rick! This is one of my favorite knives that will be lovingly used and handed down to one of my kids. I don't have experience with vintage knives, but the handles on these are as good as it gets, IMHO. Very nice texture.

I agree!

In other words, any color is good so long as it reminds me of toasted marshmallows!

My only Camillus. I wonder why the idea for a 154 CM main blade with 440a stainless tools didn't become widespread? Such a great combination of performance and price.

Call it chestnut, golden brown or amber . . . by any name, you have great taste! :thumbup:
Makes me think of wheat toast with some honey butter on it, that tastes great, too!

That's the way AG Russell rolls. He takes a tried and true pattern and puts his twist on it.

Love them all, just the amber bone is a tad under.

Thanks! The two Queens are both Amber Carved Stag Bone, but the way they are polished near the bolsters makes them look very different.

 

[RobbW]

Here are a couple of smaller ones.

Pemberton. This is a user, but seen only light duty and no food yet:

Here's an Esquire, I love the single-spring sleeveboard design, but haven't used it yet because I have some other dress knives.

If somebody looks at these pics and still does Not like "traditional" knives something is wrong with them.
