I’m carrying my bone 38 today too. I think it’s the “classiest” knife I own.
I need to carry mine more often. Such an excellent model.Got the red 71 with me today. These are fantastic. Really stiff pull which I enjoy.
Nice to see the Texas jack again. Kind of missed seeing it. That’s probably a sign I should get one.I’m going with Jack, and a thrifty little canoe.![]()
I am pleased that the stag SAK is in your regular rotation, because I like to see it regularly.
Seeing that yesterday inspired my choice for today ~ I think it’s the same one?

I’m totin this Craftsman Stockman today. I think it’s a Schrade Walden 881 in Craftsman disguise.

It must have had some rust, because a previous owner “fixed” that with sandpaper.I have done that myself when removing marks left by a gorilla with a grinder, but it looks like he stopped at 220. He also did the back and forth thing which leaves little loop scratches at the end of each stroke.
Oh well, that’s why I was able to afford it!
View attachment 1646018I’m using @JohnDF’s lovely slip so I don’t crack that old bone banging around. I’m a man of action, ya know.
Also have this Wenger Backpacker, which for me is an ideal 2 layer SAK...

I thought the same thing. Although I wasn't smart enough to buy one anyway. Now I'm on the hunt on the secondary. It is such a beauty. What was I thinking?I’m carrying my bone 38 today too. I think it’s the “classiest” knife I own.

My carry for today. I still feel like an idiot for not wanting one when the production schedule came out. Good thing I didn’t make the mistake of passing on it.
Man, I love the 29 pattern! It was my favorite for quite a while after it was released, and I acquired several of them. Till I sliced my finger twice reaching into my pocket for mine, because there’s such a gap at the clip point end where there is no wrap around spring. Obviously user error, but it happened two times and that was the end of my love affair with the 29. I still have one, and it’s such a great knife, but in my case I guess I need to carry it in a slip, and I don’t prefer to use those.3 blade Thursday View attachment 1646064

Nice one you have there, and a great pic!
