What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[mbkr]

Put a little Formby's on the Curly Birch covers of today's carry. Makes them pop, and smells nice too!

Formby's is worth its weight in gold Their website states that Minwax has taken over the Formby line and directs you to the Minwax site, but there are no Formby's products listed by Minwax

What model of schrade? I don’t recognize it. I’d love to see a close pic

Sp3. Very light, pinch open-no nail nick. Hardly need the pouch as they are so lightweight [39 grams]. I have a few of these.
This is about 3-3/4". There are some smaller and bigger ones too.

I got mine many years ago at the hardware store, back when Kerry Hampton posted that Tony Bose used it. If you google it, you can find the original at some hugely inflated prices on the auction site.

Thanks for the info. I didn’t know of those.

Nice touch for a gorgeous knife Gary.

Watching a Great Blue Heron over morning coffee, with Case/Bose Wilfred Hunter close at hand...

Great way to start your day Jim, and that Hunter looks fantastic.

Good Morning Porch Friends
I had a fun little hike with Bluey this morning.

Good afternoon porch! I hope everyone is having a great Saturday.

We’re at a local playground for a picnic and are the only ones here… so peaceful and relaxing!

Yes, it is, my friend! It looks like I will be busy with canning before too long.
Mrs Fleschwund says I can buy a nice big freezer IF I finish tiling the bathroom first.
It’s a Stick and Carrot kind of deal...

Nothing wrong with canning fresh veggies for winter time my friend. I spent a lot of childhood summer days shucking corn and shelling either peas or butter beans.
I understand the deal.

Those wharncliffe 48s look like they would make a great knife.

No doubt. Been wanting one for a while. Seemed like they got super popular there for a bit and way out of my price range, but they seem to have settled down a bit. I’m thinking this one is a keeper. The pulls are a bit soft. Probably about a four. But honestly that’s very in line with the Schrade, if they were trying to model it after the 293.

Here's a big one. SP7 These SP's were an affordable lightweight alternative.
Sak Waiter for scale.

Liking this single bladed sowbelly by Case, slim and trim with the sunken tang, just flows very well. Just made a slip sheath for her to ride around in today too

Good day Porch Friends. Case Bose becoming a bit of a trend here…

 

[JW225]

Such a wonderful knife... I may have to hunt one down some day.

Great way to start your day Jim, and that Hunter looks fantastic.

Thanks, gents. This is my first Case/Bose, and I am duly impressed. Love this particular model, as well -- nice proportions, and feels great in the hand.

I had no idea. Thanks for sharing. I like the drop point.

I’ve also been eyeing a schrade 6ot, something about the lack of a pommel weight is appealing to my eye.

These two today
