Okay, you guys convinced me, I laid the 6344 stockman aside for the 6232 jack.

But they're still friends (along with their pal the 6332 stockman, shown at the top).

Ok... we have several members - now we still need a really cool name...

Doug - that bone is such a stunning cover on the shown jackknife; just beautiful!

I like "The Texas Jacks"..... I wonder how many of us will actually be from Texas?

Yorkshire's a kind of English Texas! But with flatter hats, pies instead of steaks, and 'pit boyts' instead of cowboy boots! (OK, it's not really anything like Texas!) :D

Thank you Andi. Once you get past the sort of charred look of the jigging, the bone really does have some nice mottled color. I wish I could properly capture it in a photograph.

I've only had this thing for a couple of weeks. Due to work, I'm often subjected to blades 2.5" or less (that's 6.35 cm for those who've moved on) and the Texas Jack fits. I also like the blade combo better than my medium stockman. Still, I like my Canoe for this job too. :)
 
I am totin' the same knives I've had in my pockets for the last week. Went on a 4-day vacation across the water to Victoria, with my sweetie. We often go there to enjoy the 270 degrees of waterfront (a peninsula) of our historical Provincial Capitol. World's greatest Italian Restaurant, and an antique row that has often turned up a nice Sheffield knife (very British don'tcha know!) are among the treats to be found there.
No knives this time, but a fine, old, long string of cherry amber beads was not to be ignored!
Accompanying Old Boiley, and Mr. To-Mah-To, who provided incidental cutting tasks, is said aged necklace. We share a love of antique and First Nations beads.

Mine was a Christmas present, which has been a bit neglected so far, but I like it a lot and am trying to carry it more :)
