Super looking knives Jon. I don’t remember seeing that little swayback before, is that a new one for you? Or did I just forget? Hopefully the Chiefs will get back on track today.
I think it picked it up around March/April timeframe. I know I had by the time my daughter’s birthday rolled around late April. Back in 2017 when case released the peach bone I picked up the mini trapper. After a few years I finally bought the sway back, which I should have gotten in the first place. My daughter’s name is Georgia, hence the want for a peach bone knife and they were made the same year she was born.Super looking knives Jon.

Great pairing, Jack.
Thank you, GT.John, your usual lambsfoot is just like your beer, Hearty and Smooth!
Your Chiefs and my Hawks have had kind of a rough start.
For sure. At least our teams have Super Bowls in the recent pastYour Chiefs and my Hawks have had kind of a rough start.
One of the few benefits of being an old dude, Ed. We get to watch.It's the Ebony Scout Trapper today. A nephew is coming to collect the wood from the two trees I had cut down a few days ago and a stout knife might come in handy although I don't plan on doing a thing. He and his son will do the loading while I stand by an watch.

A-1 photo of your Anglo-Franco-American alliance, David!

I certainly admire the numerous pristine vintage Imperials and Hammer Brands you post, JJ!Toting a thrifty 1930s Cattle Knife and a late 1940s BSA Cub, both from Imperial.

Excellent fall pairing, Todd; the Marbles whittler is a handsome piece!I had a Thrifty Marbles split back whittler and Jack with me today.
...
Grand pair, Greg!This pair yesterday and again today. Both have rosewood covers, although quite different in color and grain. The Case 47 is called a carpenters whittler I think, must be because of the coping blade.

You're so right, Jeff!It always starts with a little rule bent here, a loosey goosey interpretation there. Before you know it, you’re pretending it’s Tuesday so you can have Taco Tuesday on Friday.
The rough black SBJr just might be worth a little regulatory variance, though.![]()
Thanks, John, you old silver-tongued devil.Spectacular pair of Case knives you got dealt, GT.![]()
I'm glad you dare to share that fair pair, so rare and beyond compare!
I'll bet you keep those two in a jewelry box, Rachel!Fancy Friday:

I appreciate your thoughtful support, Todd!...
Super knives Gary, the SBJ and that Chestnut mini are captivatingly cosy Case carries.![]()
Cool to hear the story behind that knife's name!...
Funny, I was looking around to trade or recover my glitter gold. Just didn’t like the gold. My wife figured out my plans for the knife and said, “No way you’re recovering that one, it makes me think of my dads old Glastron boat we called Sparkle Plenty.” So now the knife has a name and it’s really growing on me.![]()
Congrats on the raven Böker, and I'm honored that I witnessed the Taylor Eye Witness barlow!Covering both Fancy and Black Friday with my Amboyna burl TEW barlow, and a “just arrived yesterday” Boker. View attachment 1651409
Fancy bottle cap and fancy Böker!TGIF!
