What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[mbkr]

I saw my doctor today, and she says no, there's a good chance I'll live long enough to get the colonoscopy ...

I hope your Doc is more right than you. Good luck, and at least you have something to look forward too

I love ‘em. The blade is great and the handle is slim enough that I hardly notice it’s in my pocket. I think the synthetic Ebony feels different than the Yeller Delrin. I guess it’s probably the same stuff, but the black ones feel more luxurious!

A couple of real gems there, Harry!

Nice SAK and Camillus ornaments! Merry Christmas Manny

I’d have been happy as well.
And thank you, Dave. Merry Christmas

Congrats on that rare electrician. Sure don’t see many Empires around. Thanks for the closer look.

Thanks and Merry Christmas to you and the family as well

Beautiful composition and barlows Gev! That New York Knife is really something.

Picked this ornament up some years ago in South Dakota of all places.

Cool ornament and barlow, they have submarines and testing in Idaho, maybe South Dakota is doing something we don't know about

My snow blower has been chomping at the bit for a couple of weeks now. We got a few flurries this morning, but the weather report is calling for a green Christmas here.

I'm getting a little crazy here. Trying to figure what to carry has got the better of me. So, I'll just carry them all today!
Merle wants to go to Costco. Eureka Jack is too special for me to leave behind. CSC Pinch is my Christmas knife, a gift from my wife years ago. I always carry a fixed blade! Oh well, no sense fighting it......

I wouldn't be able to choose either! Nice gift from the wife

Back to the pioneer x, and shapleigh is taking the primary role today.

Amazing Shapleigh, full blades and perfect patina!

I skipped some pages. Life is too short, though mine may be less short than I was fearing.
As I read that CT report, everything between my ribs and my pelvic floor was totally rotten.
I saw my doctor today, and she says no, there's a good chance I'll live long enough to get the colonoscopy that is one of the recommendations.
So, mixed blessings. Still, I should get to work on my gravestone.
These are the Craftsman and Camillus I was talking about in this thread earlier this morning.

Best wishes and luck on your health screened porch

Gettin nostalgic for the simple things today.

Well said, I’m sure it is the same stuff, it’s just funny how such a simple material can create such a classic look.

 

[Sacto]

That’s got to be super rewarding Bart! Good luck with the rest of the season.

Thanks, Todd. It is rewarding, and I really enjoy doing it. But that doesn’t mean I’m not looking forward to the end of calving season. Just 7 more weeks.

Today I have this Case 7254 in rosewood with a serrated spey, and this Schrade 804 that Ron gave to me.View attachment 1706734View attachment 1706735

View attachment 1706736
And my flat black Zippo, and this little Maglite Solitaire. Very small and light, like a Wenger Esquire or Vic Classic, which on your keys or wherever, stay out of the way. But do come in handy.

I can’t imagine using a serrated Spey for its intended purpose.

 

[Sacto]

Swayback jack today.

 

[TheFactor]

Thursday carry this beautiful Case Bose Amber Bone Saw cut Barehead Sway back

 

[Pt-Luso]

In my pocket walk this Portuguese all in stainless steel and scrimshaw.

Have a nice day

Thanks Dave. I knew about the testing at the lake in Idaho...perhaps what they have in South Dakota is super double secret so no one finds out about it?

 

[Old Hunter]

Looks like SOG took their inspiration for the blade from the Buck 212. I like it a lot! OH

 

[sunknife]

Yellow bone and stag combo for the start of my day, Queen made moose and Klaas whittler.
