Old Friends Friday

[fuzzylogic]

I don’t think I’ve carried this in almost a year. Partly because I have too many knives and partly because it’s too just too nice.

View attachment 1425514 Trains and my old Case Mako from the 80s. I added the thumb stud for one handed opening. The trains came out early this year, ready for some fall cheer amid all the virus restrictions and gloom.

Cool pic

I used to carry this early stainless Thomas Turner Penknife regularly a few years back, but it's a while since it's been in my pocket. Thought I'd drop it in today

I dug out this Camillus 21 after driving by the yard where I bought it.

Here's a 1988 Queen made Winchester who's broken clip blade was converted to a wharncliffe many years ago. Actually I like it much better that way and consider this old friend my "Improved Moose".

Have a Fantastic Friday friends and a Wonderful Week-end!

Haven't had my Buck 303 with me in awhile. Given to me by my late Dad about 45 years ago.

Great looking knife.
Love the bolsters a lot.

Thank you. It's pretty snazzy. It was the only knife at a huge yard sale, under something in a box of random somethings. Somewhere between 6 and 14 years ago.
Here it is in daylight. It's a hair over 2 & 3/4 " long closed.

Thanks pal, good to see that one

Thanks pal!

Basel, 1967. I cut off the end of my left pinkie with the serrated blade not much later. When I sent it back to Switzerland twenty years ago, they took off a lot of the hawksbill to get rid of the nick I put in it. No complaints.
Note the all-metal tweezers.

These were gifted to me by two friends from the Porch. I'll bet y'all can figure out which friend gifted which knife! I would call them "Old" friends, but I think maybe "Longtime" would be more appropriate! Thanks Will @Will Power and Jack Jack Black

Interesting reading, i love reading those old newspaper clippings and stories.
Pulled this out to give it a touch up, and that is all it needs, it is sharp.
