What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

A couple minor(?) changes. Put away the 858 Lumberjack stockman in favor of my new Olive Wood(?) Opinel #6 (thanks again joeradza joeradza ) and the two MAM I have.
Also put up the two blade slipjoint folding hunter in favor of my SK Blades Smoke Jumper 110LT, horizontal on my belt behind the LM.
The two SAK moved to my watch pocket for now, but the Evo Grip 14 may find its way back to my rfp, joining the three friction folders.
Pen is my favorite Jinhao lacquered Brass X450.

The look depends on the lightling and angle of the photograph and what you have been cutting. I had just cut steak...lol
What did the cat get to eat ? LOLOLOL

It’s Schradurday, a good day for a Schrade.
Took a break yeaterday while digging post holes to sit in the shade with my Granddaughter and Daughter.View attachment 1788667
Today my hands are so done in that I can barely open these pocketknives.
Priceless picture Jeff ! :thumbsup:😊 Hope the hands mend soon.
I just can't get my head around "Mustard" as a knife color -- so, "Yellowstone Jigged Bone" it is!!! :p

Looks like Olde Mustard. I kinda like it that color ! :thumbsup:😊 Olde Mustard was a very traditional color, from the colonial days. Nice pattern and shield, as well !
I like that pattern much better without the fancier pinched bolsters.

Tuna on Saturday....lol
 
Handsome and practical pair Taylor :) :thumbsup:
Thanks, Jack. I recently handled one of those Bradford Guardian 3s at the Badger show and really liked it. (I didn’t buy that one because it had the slimmer textured scales and sabre grind, and I’d prefer the scales like yours has and a full flat grind.) I’ve almost pulled the trigger several times, ordering direct from Bradford to get the specs I want, but they always seem to be out of stock on one option or another. 🙄
I hope you can get one in the style you want Barrett, I think it's a great little knife :) Given a choice, I'd have gone for FFG and a plain blade finish, but I haven't had any issues with the high sabre grind. I might pick up one of the Guardian 4 models at some point, but there seems to be a big jump in price for the extra inch of steel :thumbsup:
Grabbed a couple Schrades for Saturday. :)
A couple of sweet Saturday slicers JJ, and they look wonderful together :cool: :) :thumbsup:
My main carry today...
Looking good John :) :thumbsup:

Hope everyone is having a great weekend :thumbsup:

Their sabre and their full flat grind don’t seem too different. I like the black coating — a holdover from my modern knife days, I guess. 😁 What I really don’t like is their pre-distressed “Nimbus” finish.


Did GEC use adamantium instead of 1095 on those bonus BF Barlows? 😉

I guess I could post it in Prac-Tac! :D ;) :thumbsup:
