Turquoise Jigged Bone.....sorry for the lousy pic...cell phone. I went looking for something smaller but I love the blade style and Im a sucker for a coping blade as well. Now to get a good edge on this puppy! #45 of 50

I think you'll enjoy it.
 
Yep. I've done a bit of whittling with it, on some fairly hard wood, and I still can't feel any slack in the joints.

This is great! How long have you been using this knife? It looks like you've got some great use out of it!

I dunno, a year or two I guess. They patina pretty fast when you do lawn irrigation system tune-ups in the 100°+ Kansas summers. Okay, they rust and when you scrape that off, it leaves what you see. I don't buy 'em to look at.

I'm with you on that, I only have 1 rule with my knives, I've gotta use every single one I own. I wish I had a job that let me use my knife more often, but instead I get to sit in a nice air conditioned sun protected office and stare at a screen all day, its terrible, give me sweat and sun anyday!
 
They look great. I've always loved the long slender profile of the #89s and hope to acquire one. I'm a pretty sorry whittler so I dunno if I'm worthy of a "whittling knife" but I love the looks.
