Yes sir ... think the Schrade pattern was 206 ... which was a beauty in its own right
I do recall it said that Schrade used original Russell tooling for the tang and bolster stamps on the commemorative
That original Russell of yours is a treasure !!!

Seeing yours made me want to carry my Schrade Russell Commemorative Barlow and the Schrade Barlow . I agree with you on all of your points . Some day I will have to post a photo of all of my Russell Barlows and the Commemoratives that I have . Thank you for your kind comment on my Old Russell .That Old Original Russell that I showed was bought in 2014 for $ 5.00 , down from $ 9.00 that he wanted . I drove back 65 miles a week later to buy it after I found out what it was . Below is what I have in my pockets today and if you look real close you can see the same Dimples in the Covers . I carry them almost never because they are 47 years old .

Beautiful.
How's the fancy steel performing for you?

I like it a lot, less maintenance. I still love to watch a blade patina but I don’t miss it as much as I thought.

Happy White Wednesday again.
Kinda weird... I get the urge to carry it on Tuesday evening, not even thinking the next day could be White Wednesday.

Very nice John.

Todd…. Wunderful pic and I don’t know why…. I’ve started to associate THIS IRJ as your exclusive blade

Thanks Gus. I’m very fortunate for sure.

Today’s number is a favourite of mine, when you could actually buy a knife for a fair price, and really such a short time ago.
Shur-Wood handles were introduced in the late 50’s and adorn this hump-back jack….

You can say that again Gus !

Very nice wooden Robeson !

Coincidentally, I had my old Robeson Barlow in my watch pocket today.

Very nice John.

Thank you, Todd.

I still love to watch a blade patina but I don’t miss it as much as I thought.

I can have it either way.
I do like a blade that patinas, but I also enjoy a blade that keeps an edge for a long time... D2 Maybe?

Can't beat a classic.

I’ve got a couple of those on the right (what a surprise), yet that Osage 29 has eluded me for quite a while…
Wunderful pairing there again

Thanks Gus. I’m very fortunate for sure.

Gorgeous knife Gus, and a really cool picture. Hope Spring finds you soon my friend.

Yes indeed… and thank you kindly Todd !!
Another great shot there today…. with a slip to match

You can say that again Gus !
