NOTABLE PAIRS : Only traditionals

Here’s a couple of Trappers. The knife with giraffe bone covers was made by Michael Du Plessis and the knife with bone stag covers was made by Charlie Bell. And happy Friday of course. Thought I’d take a picture with the pile sides.

CK exclusive 71’s. It’s good to have a natural micarta 71 again, such a nice color.

Nice pair. I really like the knives you present. Often beautiful pieces.

Thanks friend. I like your pics too. I appreciate how these cutlers build these. They are without doubt works of art but also tools.

White Owls- You can't do this with a half-stop knife, display the blade open at an angle Very smooth action on these, great snap too no way anaemic. Only problem, shall I take the Cow Hide into use?? Normally it would be no question, but I do have 3 user White Owls already...might just keep this to leer at and not press it into Patina Service

These two make a good pair because I have four blade styles covered. The secondaries include a Spey blade on the 38 and a small coping blade on the 26.
