What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Am 18 pages behind :( but here's to wooden Wednesday. Virtual likes to all without wearing out my mouse / index finger

Dog tags are sacred. You are issued a piece of metal with your name and other identifying information. It's cool. At some point you realize the reason you have been issued such an item. Suddenly not so cool. Carried this one for 47 years. Still do.

Made in the USA 🇺🇲

Those look great together! 😎

Looks very tidy, just WISH mine would get here......left USA on 30 Nov.....and now it'll be another week to get here from Hki o_O or more....That Owl 'bead' is beautiful, got o find one!

Thanks, Will

It is getting a bit silly, isn’t it? 😡 Hopefully it won’t be too much longer!

May as well get ‘em while you can.:thumbsup:
Plan on making one a user, and one a safe queen?
Thanks for your comment, my friend!

Funny thing is I missed the drop on these entirely (wasn’t really sure I wanted one when they were first announced/released). I was able to get both thanks to a couple generous Porch regulars. They’ll both probably be users; the Medium Rare has already hogged my pocket for months.

It’s hard waiting on a knife, I feel your pain Will! I’m waiting on a few myself. If it helps, the Owl is worth the wait, great little knife, can’t wait to see pictures. 😊👍
The patina really sets off that knife
Thanks Jon, I agree. I’ve got a stag version that needs some patina too. 😉👍
Those covers are really nice, those were gone when I got mine, so I went with the blood red. 😎👍
Back to the jack!:thumbsup:
Todd, one of these days, I might look into some of the other alox colors. The black looks real good. Some of the folks in Europe, like @Pt-Luso have access to all the other colors that are more spendy here.
They sure are Jeff, I was lucky and found a green Cadet at a really nice price, but they make some other cool colors that I wouldn’t mind picking up. 😊👍
Thank you Todd :) Sorry, I meant to take photos of my breakfast marmalade on toast, and of my lunchtime ham sandwich, but unfortunately I forgot/was blinded by greed! :D ;) :thumbsup:

Here's a sausage sammich pic I prepared earlier, (as they used to say on TV cookery shows) ;) :D

Looks delicious Jack…yep…that did it, the stomach is growing! 🤣
Two classics Todd :) :thumbsup:
Thank you. 😊
I stuck with the red Soldier. Trying to break in the handles.😗
And a carbon No. 10.View attachment 1719417
I picked up a No.12 almost a year ago mostly out of curiosity. It’s now my wife’s favorite kitchen knife. 😁
That SAK has so much character, looks great. 😎👍
M&G Texas Ranger and Boker Beer Barrel Canoe today.

The M&G version of the GEC 29 has a spey instead of an awl, which is my preference in this instance. I use the spey blade the most on the Texas Ranger.

Great looking canoe JB, I saw one that Gary 5K Qs 5K Qs posted and had to get one for myself. Perfect pattern for that wood and they’re a chunk! 😎👍

🤣Thanks it had me fooled for so long to 😁
 
They sure do Jeremy, a whole bunch of peoples’ knives fit perfectly into those slips.
😉👍
Agreed. My osage barlow goes into that slip every Wednesday.
Good Morning Porch Friends and Happy Wednesday
Very nice, John. I almost didn't recognize this was yours with that different background today. ;)
Three days in a row Wednesday ☘️

I like it, Mike. I find myself torn between variety being the spice of life and being a creature of habit. Thankfully today is Wednesday and I get a little of both.

Two great workers
Jack took the words right out of my mouth... wonderful hard workers. 🤠:thumbsup:

Thanks, I'm expanding my portfolio. 😄
Truth is, I usually take pictures inside in the morning when it's dark outside.
I'm going to try to take my pictures outside more often... but I may get lazy again. 🤣
Love the Osage TC Barlows. 🤠:thumbsup:
