Have a safe trip bro!!!!I’m packed up and ready for a SC dove hunting trip which includes sleeping on the side of the road somewhere tonight and then a few glorious nights in my tent in the woods.
I’ll be sure to blow the horn on my way through Mooresville!

Those UF2 scales are aging beautifully

Thanks man, I’ll let you know if I lose any parts off my truck lol.
UF2 for camp duties and the Shiv is just to show off to my buddy who loves killing pigs, he will want one I’m sure! I have the 20ga. for doves, .22 for plinking at camp and a Saturday Night Special for any crazies in WV.
The acid wash is holding up pretty well also, I need to use it more haha.
Good luck! Sounds like a good time. I see you have the essentials tp and Whoopers. Nice looking knives too.I’m packed up and ready for a SC dove hunting trip which includes sleeping on the side of the road somewhere tonight and then a few glorious nights in my tent in the woods.

No. It’s there.
I had to stand off to the right to keep my shadow out of the pic.

It’s an excessive amount of field knives.
I’m sure some guys are thinking, “Damn, I’d like to get just one Carothers field knife, and this fool has six.”
Well, you are right.
But I’ve been hanging around here for a while and stuff just starts to accumulate.
I only bought the FK1 because it’s an FK1 in D3V. And it was local.
The green terotuff is the main user and has been on a good amount of backpacking trips.
The full on basic BK5 has also been used… or I sold the one that was used. Can’t be sure.
The ones I haven’t used are the FK3 (just got it today), Hard/thin FK2, and a BK5 in Cruwear that got Scrimgeoured.
I’m not going to lie. I’ll probably never use that last one. The hollow grind is too pretty and only meant to be admired. I’m sure that wasn’t Mark’s intention, but it is definitely the result. I feel similarly about my Scrimgeour Reaper, but I have used it. At work. And then I rushed home and cried while apologizing to, and cleaning the knife.
If I’m able to get a second Reaper I will treat one of them like a CPK EDC.
