What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Gevonovich, that is a great knife. Especially that punch, looks like it hasn't been used one bit!
And very nice gift from Jack! What other coins did he send ya?

Thank, Tom! I really do love this knife more each day! The gifts ( coins) from Jack are spectacular, each and every one. I am going to unveil one each day just for fun! Each one is really old and just beautiful. I can't wait to share them!
 
I'm carrying the little mini copperhead on the bottom:

That's a silver knight on top, right? It looks to be around 3 3/8" or so? Which model is that, if I might ask? (All I know is there were several sizes and they were named numerically.)

Good looking mini-copperhead too -- been fixing the lack of pocket-time for my blue one this week, myself.
 
I am sporting my Lucky Penny sent to me by Jack Black!! He sent me 11 coins!! I want to thank you, Jack!!!!! You have put a big smile in my heart with your gesture. Thank you, my friend!

You're very welcome, it was absolutely my pleasure :)

I've had this one for a while, my #62 lives in it, so you only see it when I carry the #62, it was a gift from Al Dodge.
Al does great work.

When you get to my age, you get a bit confused Pete! :D Al definitely does great work though :)

That knife is a 250A model. It is 3-3/16" long closed. The blade is 2-1/2" from the bolster to tip when open. The other sizes are 200 for the small one and 300 for the large one.

The 250 size was the most varied model with covers of wood, all stainless, full wood onlay, white pearl like the one above, black pearl, green kraton rubber (checkered), bone, stag, white scrimmed micarta, black scrimmed micarta. There could be other variations I'm not aware of. The 200A was available with wood, pearl, all stainless, and abalone. The 300 models were less varied than the 250. The 250 size also came as 250B with drop point main and sheepsfoot or pen secondary, and the 250C model with a stockman like layout with the drop point main, a sheepsfoot secondary and a pen for the third blade. The assembly of the multiblade knives is pretty phenomonal; the clearance between liner and auxiliary blade(s) and between the auxiliary blades and the main and/or each other rivals the fit of many backsprings we see. Yet they do not rub each other. On the 250C I have the main rides close to the outside scale, but doesn't rub; I don't know if that was intentionally done for clearances or just the one knife.

Reading this post, you might think I am infatuated with these knives, and I am to a certain degree. I just bought a 250A in kraton a week or so ago. I've given a couple away here over the last couple years.

Oh, and I really like mini copperheads too.

Thanks, Nathan. Until Ed J showed a red one about a month back I didn't even know this blade combo existed, even though I've long enjoyed the 4" copperhead frame. It didn't take me long to scour one out!

Copperheads are great! I am now on the hunt for one as well.....

I really like the serpentine jack in the bottom middle! Looks like a Remington to me?

Really great stuff Vanguard!
