Traditional and Modern pairings

Who says that traditionals are smaller than modern knives?! ;)

Not I.

Interesting pairing, Andi. I do like Spyderco's smaller knives....

Two nearly new knifes with me today. The Rat II for the heavy work, or when I need the other hand for holding (much easier to carry than my Rat I in OD green - 5" closed and 5 oz.) and the CV Canoe, in my watch pocket, (got rid of that pesky Indian the first day)for intricate work (the thin grinds perform without question).

2 smaller fixed blades (right around 8 inches). Oldie is a WW2 KABAR utility knife and the new one is a custom mini bushcrafter by Mark Wohlwend. I like both of them!

Just starting back into traditionals. I purged nearly all my knives during 2 years of unemployment 7 years ago, have slowly rebuilt my moderns back and now have a mess of Spydercos including PM D2, Mili's in orange, Ti and brown, as well as oldies that never sold. A bunch will be put on the sales forum eventually to pay for more traditionals. I've bought these in just the last 3 weeks.

A couple of them. I am really trying to slim down my collection of modern folders. I haven't been so lucky with the trads.
 
Large Ritter with Blk Wilkins grips with red back spacer and as always my Clip blade Barlow :thumbup:

After switching exclusively to traditional purchases for the last couple of months the Spyderco forum knife came available so I had to order it. My latest GEC was put in my mailbox as UPS brought the Spyderco forum knife to the front door.
 
This might be a stretch, but I think the Victorinox Yeoman can at least be considered a modern traditional.
