Straight Edge Traditionals

[Jack Black]

I was wondering how or why it got locked Jack. Those are two excellent offerings. :thumbup:

A bit of a mystery Bob, but Gary kindly came to the rescue Lovely knife my friend :thumbup:

Here's a real cheapie, a Pallades friction folder.

I'll bet that little friction folder will take a very sharp edge. :thumbup:

It does Bob, I picked it up for around $5 in the market, which is probably more than they sell for new. The blade is about as thick as a box-cutter blade, stainless, very utilitarian.

That's probably the perfect use for it. Nice grab. I'd have bought it too.

Thanks, for the price I was quite interested to see what it was like :thumbup:

A couple of new ones to add

A 1943 H M Slater British Army Clasp Knife, which I was gifted by R.c.s. :thumbup:



And a A Wright 'Senator' Lambsfoot in sambar

I suppose I'm just a dissenter. Though I'm of with a straight edge on the knife's secondary and prefer such an edge on a knife's tertiary blade, I want some belly on the main blade. Fits my uses better.

Yes, horses for courses, I definitely prefer some belly on a knife for hunting and fishing, makes things a lot easier :thumbup:

Here's a slightly unusual one I've never found a use for. Plated steel liners and bolsters. Kutmaster.

Nice addition, Jack. :thumbup::thumbup:
Both the knife and its backdrop are very impressive "artifacts"!

Thanks GT, unfortunately the old edition of The Yorkshire Post is falling apart, but there was certainly some interesting reading in it :thumbup:
