I'm getting the idea that you are quite fond of that one, Heh-Heh. It's a beauty. Standby... I'll be loosing my Stag 303 from the knife roll soon.

I’ve had it for years. I bought it if eBay used and then put up. I would carry it maybe once or twice a year.

Back in October I decided I was going to start carrying some of the ones I liked a lot and not worry about it.

There’s just something about this one.

Nice! How do you keep the bolsters so shiny?

Thank you.

I just received the Yellowhorse 55 on 12/5/22 but I just started carrying it on 12/12/22. The brass hasn't had enough time to tarnish yet. I've been carrying the Nickel Silver 112 since late May. I don't use my pocketknives very often and they always ride in a pocket by themselves with no other items.

I suspect that the 55 will begin to tarnish soon despite the fact that I haven't even used it yet.

I work in a manufacturing warehouse where I encounter about 95% of my cutting chores. Mostly opening boxes and cutting shrink wrap off of pallets. They have a rule that we can only use a company issued utility knife with a blade that automatically retracts after each cut. Fortunately, there is no rule against carrying our personal knives. We just can't use them. I don't like it any better than it sounds but it is what it is, I'm afraid.

Ah! I didn't notice that the 112 was nickel silver . . . my brain said, "Ooh! The brass is shiny!"

Nice set, sir!
