Thanks.
The yarn I've heard is that they carried them in their lederhosen pockets.

You are correct I was getting mixed up the the Scottish.




These knives are carried in the right hand side side pocket of a traditional Bavarian leather pant, and just part of the handle is visible while exceeding that pocket. Bavarian dress knives are characterised by the special shape of the blade and in most cases by a decorated ferrule.

Modoc ED , I was born in Oakland California and lived briefly in San Jose. Raised in Alabama.
Lived in San Diego (twice) and then in the bay area at Mare Island in Vallejo (twice) when in the Navy ... among other places. Have lived in 10 different states.
No way I could live in California now. Bless ya. Thing I love about Alabama is no state taxes on military retired pay ... or social security.
Additionally, I qualify for and have property tax exempt status on my homestead (once I turned 65). Life is good, and easy to live in Alabama.
Nice Buck by the way ... real nice

WOooHOoo !!! ... I saw that (and had put a "like" on the OP) ... and it's what got me interested in the Hungarian Fejesgörbe !!!
Additionally, I found this post while researching Hungarian knives ... From Hungary by a Parisian friend
I feel like the Fejesgörbe was just made for me and so glad I was lucky enough to locate one. They are AWESOME knives IMO !!!
I always enjoy your posts too. Thank you for sharing information and insight ... Thank You

Such a great size, these single blade 86s.

The stockman is really just along for the ride today. I have my usual stuff but the spring street barlow has been my main user since getting it. I hardly use a single blade knife primarily so it’s nice to change things up a bit.
