Late Father's Day Present...

[bonky]

It arrived, along with a few others yesterday afternoon. I have to confess, I did have something to do with the selection process

Anyway, among the knives I received, this one was one of my favorites, an old Schrade Walden NY USA 880 in peachseed bone:

​

It needed a little cleaning (after the "Kentucky Mint" treatment it had already received, darn it all), and a trip across the stones. It's surely seen some use, but is as tight as a drum, no wobble and very tight walk and talk. Just in time for T-bone Tuesday, too!

Straight in the pocket it goes, and I'm sure it will be good for another 40+ years of service.

Thank you girls!! Both my daughters' next gifts have just been upgraded a couple places, and my wifey's too

Happy Father's Day. Lots of life left in that one!

Thanks guys! This was one of my grail-knives, even with the bit of blade-loss. I've a feeling my father may wind up swapping me out of it soon, but fear not, my girls sent some back-up along with that one.

I'm blessed with some pretty cagey wimmins in my life

Really like that one. I have long been a fan of the peach seed bone. You can carry that one with pride.
