What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

I'm ashamed of my mug ... it's clean
No longer my primary EDC mug, nor is the Demo my primary EDC
But man, what great memories when I have hands on 'em
I guess I'm trying to be a civilian but I have a queen size bed and still only sleep on >||< that much of it, even after 15yrs

No shame there, Jim. All of my mugs are clean now, too. I still sleep the same way as well, picking myself up to roll over so I stay within the size of a Navy rack.
 
I had a hard time with it, mostly because I wanted to keep the original bolsters. Being stamped metal, they dented and malformed easily.
But you had a great idea in making your own out of scrap metal! Nice work.

I may have to try that~ make barlow bolsters next time I take apart a Camillus TL-29.
The ones I’ve done, I did as shadow patterns without bolsters and it worked fine, if you’re into that style. The liners have the notches for the cover tabs but it’s not too noticeable.
 
This totally unremarkable horn covered Senator Lamb Foot that I don't mind using the heck out of
Performs flawlessly and there's at least a bushel, maybe a tonne of heck left in it
Even effortlessly tickles all the way down the inside of my leg to let me know when there's a hole in my pocket

I'm finding it to be a real challenge to stay caught up with this thread for the past several months, at least. So I did a little "research" to see if there's a reason for my constant "falling behind". I counted all the posts in this thread from the first one posted on December 1 to the last one posted on December 22. Then I did the same thing for the same range of dates in 2018. Here are the results:
2021: 1785 posts in 22 days, for an average of 81.1 posts/day (or just over 4 new pages per day)
2018: 1632 posts in 22 days, for an average of 74.2 posts/day (or just under 4 new pages per day)
I was shocked, to say the least! 😲 o_O :eek: I'd have sworn this thread has significantly more "traffic" recently than it used to have, but a difference of 7 extra posts per day seems insignificant to me. I have to conclude that I'm getting very inefficient as I get deep into my golden years! :rolleyes: 🤓

Anyway, here are more of the knives I'm carrying this week.
Sowbelly stockman of the week is a cracked ice version made in China by Imperial:
