My new Cover Carry for 2008

[Durwood]

I finally broke down and picked out a Ray Cover knife to carry When Ray came out with this pattern at my request a couple of years back, one thing or another always kept me from carrying one...the first ones I got were in black pearl and then Ivory and I wanted one in Bone to carry....I finally got a few of these in bone and when I picked them up I told Ray that I didn't want him to sell me another knife if I didn't start carrying one. Ray just smiled and said, "I made knives for about 15 years before I started carrying one; I just never felt like I could afford to carry one until then." I'm particularly happy with the way the bone turned out on this one, it doesn't show so well, but the jigging has quite a bit of depth and texture to it. I have a couple of more patterns with this style bone that was custom dyed and jigged for another maker, but I talked them out of a few pair for Ray This one spent a little time in the pocket today and will be in regular rotation from now on. It is 3 1/8" closed and 5 1/2" open with an ATS-34 blade

That is really nice. It is about time that you actually put one of these in your pocket, particularly after having put so many of them in our pockets

Take care and enjoy that nice little knife.

That really is a good-looking little folder. I like the bolster and the bone is gorgeous. I'm glad you're going to carry it! :thumbup:
