I hope the goodies got you through all the TV you've been watching buddy!

I've been rationing them... don't want to run out too soon.

Oh, that's a Beauty!

A Lambsfoot and a Barlow, two of my favorites to combine together... very nice!

Thank you sir !!!
Since 2015, I've enjoyed this KA-BAR Dog's Head Coppersmith Barlow
Made for KA-BAR by Canal Street Cutlery

 

[Crappie71]

This came yesterday, and I carried it to church with me today. I’m very impressed with it.

Awesome carvings. There’s a lot of blades in that picture.

Great to be home! Looks like some of you are now vacationing…hope you have a great time.
I’m looking forward to carrying a few knives I haven’t carried in a couple of weeks. View attachment 1899463

Welcome back! Hopefully easing back to normal isn’t too difficult

Good Morning Porch Friends
I've been AWOL for the past few days, devoting almost every waking hour to working and watching the Drum Corps International finals on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. I'm back now but there's absolutely no way for me to catch up again, so I'm just starting fresh, right here, right now. Good to be back.

Great pictures John!

That watch band is beyond COOL.

Thank you. I’m fortunate to know people with skills that make an idea a reality

Absolutely too cool Jon.

Thanks Todd!

Oh, that's a Beauty!

Thanks, John.

 

[JohnDF]

Great pictures John!

Thank you, Jon.

 

[JJ Cahill]

Yeah, not a lot of fun I'm afraid

I can definitely relate with my constant ice pack rotation and orthopedic surgeon supplied topicals. Hang in there my friend!

A wonderful pair JJ

Thanks most kindly, Jack!!!

Toting two mid century Scouts today.

Back to the Cattle Knife for the afternoon...

I've been busy the last 2 or 3 days and haven't had much spare time. I toted my re-finished Tina 606 all day today.

I got this today,it was quite expensive but I like it.

I got one so cheap, it has to be a repro.
I think I just wiped mine down with a sanitizing wipe and put it through the dishwasher.
I didn't carry it today; the two folders are what I ended up with after church.

Really like that Boker — nice to see a camp knife that includes a punch and bail In the mix.

Thanks. I almost always carry at least one camp/scout knife, and that rosewood Böker has been "stealing" more than its share of pocket time. We roasted a couple of packages of hot dogs yesterday at the "resort" fire pit, and the Böker shaved some kindling curls for our fire and "slimmed down" the store-bought wiener sticks that we had to use.

The small ones get cleaned up, separated, and go straight into a bin in the kitchen. View attachment 1897384
Good for low blood pressure...

I imagine you have no problems with vampires either, Jeff.

Have a good day everyone. Hot and sunny here, but I'm stuck on my backside fondling my Bagpipe Ebony Big 'Un and an Old Friend I have been meaning to carry for a while

Preeminent pair, Jack!

Stellar stockman!

Friday!! Have a great weekend everyone. Sitting at home waiting for the plumber to come replace our water heater that decided it was time to give up while we were out of town last weekend… thankfully it’s a tankless system and we shut off the water when we travel. Not too big of a mess.

Cool pic, Mike! Glad the water heater meltdown was not too damaging.

Feels like a Case day today. Sowbelly and a sodbuster jr. SAK pioneer tonight to help me pop some adult beverages. 15th annual family fantasy football league draft later and maybe off to the racetrack to bet on some horses.

Cool SBS and SBJr pairing!

Good Morning Porch Friends
I barely have time to scroll through the pictures and hit the "like" button. I wish I had more time to chat, but I'm running off to work now. Hope you al have a wonderful day.

Pretty and practical pitch black pair, John!

Black Friday Lite

That Case Blackhorn is a nice little knife, and I love the steel-driving man on the "shield" of that Imperial!

today is a @glennbad 88 ebony recover.

Magnificent mod!

I took the normal, daily carry pic and then it hit me. The pile side doesn't ever get any love, so today I took a pic of both. And both sides are the same tone/color, but the sun came out for the pile side. Lol. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

What a contrast from the difference in lighting!

Dandy duo, Steve!

The Opinel is for French Friday (I got one of the days on this thread right for once!) and the Proper is per usual.

Having any pocket knife other than the Opinel makes it clear that you are into knives for their own sake, and not just for functionality. If I only cared about functionality, the Opinel No 08 will do everything I want an EDC pocket knife to do, do it extremely well, and do it while costing less than $20. I'm always impressed by just how good these things are.

Hope you're all having a great Friday, and have an even better weekend.

Your Opinel testimonial is eerily similar to what runs through my mind every time I use one of my Opinels. "If I want to cut stuff, why do I ever reach for anything other than this one??"

Happy Friday on the porch!

Couple of beauties in a great photo!

Thanks, GT! I agree. That tortoise shell was one of my first GECs, and it’s still one of my favorites.

Elegant alliteration as always, Gary!

Thanks, Thom.

It’s been a while since I’ve carried my Hayn’ Helper.

That model always looks good to me, and I think, "That's a GEC I should try to track down!"
(But then I say, "But I have a perfectly good Rough Rider Half Hawk.")

Schrade Walden Farmers Jack and Clauss (made by Case) green bone easy open Jack. Both solid as Sears

Vibrant vintage pair, Paul!

...
Interesting pair Gary, I'm enjoying seeing these Sabre knives


Thanks buddy, been a month now, and it's a great summer here too
...

Thanks, Jack.

Schrade, and Schrade Walden along with my large Wenger.View attachment 1898506

Wow, that pair is outstanding, Jeff!
