I totally agree! Gorgeous one you've got there, I'd love to find one with bone next.Well if you can only have one, I think you have the belle of the ball…View attachment 1650208
Yes this is coco. I can see how it remained your carry for years. Every morning when I visit the knife bowl, it's a struggle to pick anything over this one! Such a fantastic companion.That is a great knife. I have the same one - Cocobolo (?) I believe. It was my everyday carry for many years. If they made them again, I'd buy them again..
That boat (getting another Washington) sailed away for me … last few on big auction site have gone for four figures (not asking, but sold for more than a grand…now a few have popped up with asking prices in the $1200 range). Im just happy I have one!I totally agree! Gorgeous one you've got there, I'd love to find one with bone next.

Nice HJ's my friend two beauties
Oh Man.... if only...... Charlie that is simply wonderful that Knife! I agree with you Sir, he did respond in Kind with his beautiful interpretation of his Very Clean Punch - that whole Knife is just outstanding, in saying this...lay the Washington down next to this wonderful art piece and it would not look out of place in any way!Nice Sheepfoot HJ, by Richard Rogers!!View attachment 1642984

That little feller is just a RR knife pick. The punch on my 77 is a nail breaker, so I got a pick to help open it.Nice set of knives. Thx for sharing. I'd love to see that little feller opened up if you have a pic.

Well don't I feel like the idiot.That little feller is just a RR knife pick. The punch on my 77 is a nail breaker, so I got a pick to help open it.
It does look like a little friction folder, doesn’t it!? And yes, that 77 is definitely one of my favorite knives. It’s a keeper!!Well don't I feel like the idiot.
Anyway, very partial to that 77. Beautiful.
You forgot you owned that???And I totally forgot I had this one until today. CC aka Waynorth HJ8 in Gabon Ebony. Never used, carried or sharpened.

Someone told me these have gotten rather pricey.
Awesome collection, but I gotta ask, which one bit ya?
Lol, the knives are sitting on an old piece of military canvas (I think from a tent). The red is what remains of some printing on the canvas. My fingers are fine, although I’ve come close to cutting myself several times trying to open the punch on that 77!Awesome collection, but I gotta ask, which one bit ya?
