Here is our current lineup of Fiddlebacks wearing Shadetree. . .
LtoR
BK: in terracotta OG spalt. . .Easily my most used Fiddleback recently. This one and the patch have come in handy with recent general construction work on the new barn
Patch: TT in PIB, B&W stripes . . . My Second most used I am Starting find the drop point is generally more utilitarian than the spear points for indoor work.
Patch: in FUBAR coffee bag, B&W stripes. . .Son of fods
EDC: 154 in black herringbone, orange liners, black stripes, stainless hammer flats. Had high hopes for this one, but it just does not get the love and use. Not giving up on it though
Arete: oreo old school with steel and natural pins and black liners, OG spalt. . .Until recently this one was number one in the lineup and is the number one Fiddleback on my side when hiking and woods bumming. This knife, of all the knives I own, fits my hand the best. Got it second hand with an Andy Roy made sheath. :thumbup:
Ladyfinger: old school w/single steel pin, commando twisted orange, mill finish flats. Like the EDC, I should love this knife, but . . .I don't. Perhaps if it were a skinny one I'd use it more.
Kephart: TT Shadetree Sampler w/beauty mark. Drunken coffee bag, natural, oreo with emerald liners. Kinda more for show it is a real slicer.
Gaucho: TT Drunken coffee bag over black liners and bolster, beauty mark. Definitely the Sophia of the bunch
My Sunday picnic/ personal steak knife.
Andy offered me this knife at Blade a few years back, right out of his pocket. For some reason, I passed. Later that month, it came up on FF and in the meantime I had come to my senses and snatched it up. Came with another beautiful lambskin lined Andy made sheath
Recluse: TT Tangerine over Black liners, bolsters, spalt flats. Intended as a gift for a friend, we'll see if it leaves Shadetree Central
Recluse: TT FUBAR coffee bag over Black liners, white stripes. Son of fods to match the patch above.
Sneaky Pete: Shadetree Sampler. Red, grass and black herringbone over black liners, white stripes. Light spalt flats. Another for son of fod to show off at shows.
KPH: commando kryptonite with glow bullseye, mill finish flats. Glows all night.
Snubnose: orange brains over natural liners and bolsters, OG Spalting. Experimental one off orange tinted fiberglass with orange fiber mix.
