My only 73.

Love the macassar scales on this! If you ever decide to part with it, I'll be first in line.

Just perfect! Kind of my grail knife: a #73 with stag covers and a lanyard hole! Wow, I'm jealous...

I only have one ( 1 ) 73 , but it is Stag and I have carried it every day since I got it in late June this year unless I am somewhere that it may be Not Legal to carry.Some old pictures but since I carry it in a slip , the patina on the stag is developing slowly.

Some pictures of the Stag on the 73 that I have for a gift for a Grandson later this year.

Thanks Paul. I think you said it best about a Stag 73 " It is just like sitting around and watching a campfire " or something to that effect.

Thank you very much but I am holding onto this knife until they put me in the ground. I love this knife and those ebony covers!

Ryan : You have patina on your blades like I don't ever expect to see on any of my newer ones. They look great. Were you able to reserve one of the Smooth Red Bone Washingtons ?

I hope no one minds me posting this in here as well. Just got it in today and it went right into my pocket. I am normally a modern folder guy, but I had an urge to try a traditional knife again. I looked at a lot of patterns, but there was something about the 72 that pulled me in. Thanks

I'm glad you like the patina Harry, I don't force my patinas; they're all from good honest use
I was didn't get to reserve one of the washingtons unfortunately. Oh well

Sorry to hear that. I like the 77 Northfields a lot , but I have to make sure my Battleship Desires don't over run my row boat pocket book . Would you consider adding all the other shapes that the 23 & 72 & 73 have ? Including the new 83 ? It is your thread and your call.
