What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Good Morning Porch Friends
Still riding with this #71. I love the rustic look, the feel in-hand, and the improved blade shape.
Really like the contouring on your 71. Might have to try something like that on mine someday when I’m feeling adventurous.

Put the hammer to the bolsters on this one last night to tighten things up just a little. Tight and right again.

Calendar shot Bart. John turned me on to 70s era Case knives, they are spectacular. 😎👍

The blade is most definitely not defective, I see an apple in it’s future. 🔮🍎

That’s perfect from the bead to the blade. 😎👍

What a cool photo Jon. 😎👍

Love that saying 🤣 and the lamb. 😎👍

Sweet picture John. They just put a coffee bar in our teachers lounge. Think I’ll try a cup in the afternoon. 😊

Haven’t cleaned out the turtle enclosure yet, still a few cold nights, the leaves help keep out the cold. Probably a week or so before any of them appear for the first time this year. When the kids were small it was always an exciting time to see the turtles again in Spring. The kids are older now and away at college, but I’m still excited. 😄View attachment 1785575
Thanks Todd. I see you found some more green there.
 
Wrapping up my trio of match striker long pulls today. Slacker that I am, I didn’t find any black flowers…😬

Days are getting shorter, day light saving ended on the weekend, had lots of rain. So while the sun was out this morning, sat out the back with the dog reading the new Longmire. Jobs I could have been doing but..... Good thing the wife & kids weren't about, we've taught them jobs before play😊 not that they listen😮

Bart's got a good touch on finishing the blades and Micarta.
Thanks, John. Sometimes I get lucky.
Makes it even more worthwhile Bart and what a sweet brown-bone there today 🤩:thumbsup::thumbsup:
Thank you kindly as well… it sure is a charmer

Thanks, Todd. It’s got great bone and a nice stout pull.

I love that you have turtles. Mine lives inside, although I used to let him roam the yard when I was a kid. Whenever I couldn’t find him I would let our hunting dog out to find him. Cool little animals (and a cool knife) 👍
Sacto Sacto did a great job on it. 🤠:thumbsup:
Thanks again.

Great pictures.
 
Thank you Mr. Jack ! ☺️

It's a baby doctor John Primble India Steel Works (1890-1940), so hard to say who actually made it for Belknap Hardware. ☺️ Judging from the bone wear, I would guess closer to 1890 than 1940.
Thanks for the info Mr P, you have a lovely collection :) :thumbsup:

I think I might have only one Doctor's Knife, a Kastor, which looks like it's seen a good bit of doctorin'! :D ;) :thumbsup:

That’s great, Jack! 🤣 Sadly I must have missed it altogether on the 1st.
Thanks buddy, you were in good company :D ;) :thumbsup:
I imagine that’s the sort of thing that you don’t miss at all about doing the Guardians knives. 😳😉
Definitely not! o_O 🤨 :thumbsup:

Thanks Jack! Been quite busy the last year. Moved to Colorado.
Wow, that sounds exciting :cool: I hope Colorado is treating you well buddy :thumbsup:
Charlie Bell mini zulu etched A2 ... love this knife! Whoop!!

Very nice indeed John :cool: :) :thumbsup:
Two jack Tuesday for the first leg of a 1000 mile drive with my daughter. First leg is to my brother’s house for dinner and sleep, then on to Colorado. The kids bought their first house, and asked for Dad’s help. Fence in a garden area, and build vegetable beds, as well as some plumbing stuff.
Looking forward to seeing two of my grandchildren!View attachment 1785200Remy just turned six. Mom and Dad think he’s ready for his first pocket knife, so guess who they asked to pick one out!
I got him a Victorinox Camper, thinking that the wood saw will help keep him busy. Of course I brought my Vic Camper, so I can tell him it’s just like Papa’s.
It’s going to take some close supervision, along with strict safety rules. Hopefully no bandages.View attachment 1785193
Awww :) Have a safe trip and a great visit Jeff :) :thumbsup:
Thank you, Jack. :)
I like how Canvas Micarta looks after some oil and dirt.
:) :thumbsup:

Two TEWs Tuesday again : Had these TEWs , with Ramshorn covers, in my pocket to go into town to get my Ears Lowered this morning .


Then switched out to these to get some small jobs done this afternoon
Two old workhorse TEWs

Fantastic TEWs Harry :thumbsup:

Like a hot knife through butter, thank you very kindly, Jack!!! :)
Great stuff JJ :) :thumbsup:
I thought the steel wool and the lack of a bolster stamp were very odd, though I didn't add "2 and 2"! o_O 😁 :thumbsup:
:D :thumbsup:
That's a mighty sweet looking Canal Street"balloon" and it's always a treat to view your "custom cover" Lambsfoot; I see a trek in your near future, too! 😋 😎 :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Thanks JJ, not by balloon I hope! Well, not in Yorkshire in April anyway! :D :thumbsup:
Tot'n a couple Case knives for Tuesday. :)
Two smashers there my friend, you've inspired my 'shotgun rider' today ;) :) :thumbsup:
Having my afternoon cup of coffee on the back porch
Great pic John :cool: :thumbsup:

Inspired by JJ Cahill JJ Cahill , I'm having a Double Barlow Day! :D ;) :thumbsup:
