What Buck are you carrying today?

Hey Preston, don't you worry about teeth marks on the scales?

Not has long as he has a bird in his mouth…

I have my venerable ol' 486 with me today while checking on the garden.
Shallots are feeling the cold, but hanging in there.

On a somewhat chilly afternoon, 15C, (for South East Queensland at least);
it was perfect time to throw a few pork and garlic snags on the barbie.

Snag on toast with barbie sauce a la Buck Brahma.

Been carrying this a bunch lately. Looks like it needs a little polish.

Looks like it needs a little polish

where & why?
Looks gr8 to me.

Then again ... I am not fond of fingerprint and smudge magnet "mirror polshed" blades and bolsters on my knives or other tools.

Ok. I’ll leave alone for a while longer

This little gem finally arrived today, going to give it a little pocket time this afternoon.

I'd love to get one of these, but I'd need it to be about $100 or so less expensive.

Didn't carry any one today, but, I had these, on the table, available for the daunting tasks of opening mail and packages, breaking down boxes and food prep.

Question for the experts. My 112 Slim & 110 LT both have small raised nubs on the top rear of the blade & on the top front of the lock, where they meet. Is it for tactile reference, so you know where the handle ends & the blade begins? Or something else? Just wondering.

Those bumps are so when they grind and polish the spine on the 110 and 112 they will finish flush with each other. Since there's no grinding and polishing on the slims, the bump remains.
I get the purpose for them, but it's kinda lazy to not clean them up on a knife that's not getting polished.

Thanks MT_Pokt . Something like that never crossed my mind.

Just so you are aware:
If you file that nub off (I used a mini diamond file.) You don't void the warranty.

I asked before doing my two 110LT's.
