Old Friends Friday

[Jack Black]

Thanks.
I didn't think much of it when I put it away, but every time I look at it I'm astonished at how well I did on really quite a lot of it. Those pins are finishing nails that I peened without splitting the rosewood.

Well done Jer

There's been other Ancients produced, but none of the others have come close to that one.

I have another from the same run, and one of the Spearpoint models, and they are great knives, but I agree with you my friend, Charlie hit it out of the park - again!

This is my oldest knife - a Christmas present from my folks sometime around 1980 (best guess). They bought matching knives for me and my brother and these have been strapped to our belts on a bunch of hunting trips with Dad.



That one is too big to pocket carry, so my mini trapper is my old friend on this Friday. It's not all that old but I've carried it more than any of my other knives. The Urban Jack will also be in my pocket because the dog needs a good combing today...

That one and the scratted parchment are my two must acquires (some day some how) There's just something extremely special about them. That is a fine example Jack.

I'm going to wear this knife out eventually.

One day, when my daughter sells all my knives on eBay, someone is going to see this and throw a conniption that someone actually had the gall to use a TC.

My kids won't be able to sell them, I'm taking mine with me.
