Thanks, Mitch !!! ... The Ebony Ball feels best in hand. The Olive Clog rides best (vertical, tip down) in pocket
Both are No25's with handle length of 12.2cm (4.80") ... and a smaller size, No22 is available
Yes, they're kinda large but not a lot of metal, so they ride very light ... especially the Olive

Felt like a little fixed blade today, with a new stick

Just finished up a wonderful 3 hour hike. “Old Lime road”. Part of the wagon trail between Durango and Silverton.View attachment 1855526View attachment 1855527View attachment 1855528View attachment 1855529View attachment 1855531View attachment 1855541

Thanks for sharing. That’s beautiful countryside there.

One of my favorite parts of summer is getting to rotate garden knives. Forum knife for now.

Wedding went well, now just winding down. My 81 year old Dad is still in town so I took him for a drive today up in the mountains. He’s struggling getting around so realistically this will be his last trip out here. But it’s been a good trip.

Killer combo!

Thanks!

Today with this GEC 25 EO in stag.

That’s a nice one, Jose.

Wow Bart, I can’t believe how low that lake is. Around here, we call “low” a few inches. Does the water level fluctuate a lot?

It’s actually better than it was last year. From what I understand, the flume that feeds the reservoir was damaged in the fire last year. They weren’t able to send water to it until it was fixed just recently. Not much came in from tributaries because of drought, so it’s really low.

Tough to beat a burger on a camping trip. Good work Bart.

Luckily everything tastes better when you’re camping

Looks like fun and a great way to cool off. Is that Sly Park?

Yes, Jenkinson Lake/Sly park. Lots of fun and nice to get out of the heat, about 12 degrees cooler up there.

Looks great, Todd.

Good Morning Porch Friends
After seeing all the useful SAKs posted, I'm following the crowd...

I like when the colored Alox start showing some wear

Wish I had a keg to tap…my birthday is coming up…maybe a present to myself

This one is always hogging up pocket time!

 

[Pt-Luso]

That’s a nice one, Jose.

Thank you very much.

In my pocket today walks this Autuno in Olive wood.

 

[ISKRA]

Thank you
I never noticed that about the frame but I also have never seen a EJ in person.
I wonder which is older, the 6308, or the EJ?

Good question. I don't know if Case made these already before the Tested era? I'm sure the frame is older than 1920, afaik some cuttleries made cattle knives on it as well but those must have been bigger. The 6308 and 6208 are a very pocketable size, 6208s are also very slim.

Great pic Taylor, I hope you get a nice keg soon buddy, and that you have a very Happy Birthday

Pairing my Rosewood Big 'Un and Carl Kammerling Pruner for the garden The Gods of Chance also dealt me this Nicholas Nichols pocket cleaver for Random Tuesday
