What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Sacto]

Exactly. Dry, but still a fun place for a tiny stroll in nature.

Always a fun place to visit. The deer viewing there is great.

Always a fun place to visit. The deer viewing there is great.

I think my favorite there was a few years back when we watched a couple a really big turkey toms have a kickboxing match about ten feet off the trail. There were a couple of smaller toms watching, too. After a while we kept walking and right around the corner was a big group of jennys (so at least we knew what the big boys were fighting over).

Looking good Dave

Beautiful morning here, doing some boating later today with an old friend, but I’m starting my day with some coffee and these two. Have a great day everyone.

Hope you had a fantastic time Todd, great-looking pair there

Stag Lamb and a Camillus Stockman

Cool pairing Steve

I’ve had trouble exactly dating this knife but the color of the ivory and the three implements say 1870’s to the prewar period. It was given to me by my then girlfriends grandfather (RIP) at his home in France.

That's sweet Isk

Thank you Greg !
The Puukko was gifted to me by @RayseM
He made the handle himself with birch bark and stag gathered in the woods around his place and he also made the leather sheath Additional cool touches are engravings on the knife and sheath as well as a bronze shackle that is part of the sheath evoking boating and sailing
A VERY special knife

That really is an incredible knife Dan

Closing out the day with this one and a Lambfoot. View attachment 1933180

Nice pairing Pete

Thanks a lot, Jack!!!

What a great way to begin your weekend, a pair of stag covered stunners and a couple of bottle openers to facilitate refreshments!

Many thanks JJ, I have one or two knocking about

I pocketed a couple of Camillus Scouts today.

Superb pair of stunning Scouts my friend

Here are the final two of my "top ten Victorinox" I've been toting since Monday.

That's a great picture. I'll have to see if my Esee 4 can convince me I don't need a compadre.

Fact and Fiction From Friday (mostly).

...

Have a good Friday folks I'm carrying an Old Friend, along with Charlie's #86

Pair of aces, Jack!

Thanks Gary, if it wasn't for the blade play, I'd say it was a much superior knife

A useful addition

Sorry to hear about blade play on your RR scout. I can tolerate a lot of "imperfections" in a knife, but blade play is detestable to me.

Only if he adopts the name Arthur.

Not a bad idea (although King Chuck has a nice ring to it, too).

Good Morning Porch Friends

Handsome horn, John! Is that turkey bacon?

Once it’s posted with a shell, it’s officially mine.View attachment 1931699

Looks fantastic, Alan!
(Once it's posted without blade reflections, it's definitely not mine! )

No argument from me!
Today I'm toting a weird old friend: Thuya wood Boker Whittler:

Wondrous whittler!
Is that the one that blossomed like Aaron's rod one April???

It sure is Gary. Synthetic Ebony and jigged Chestnut are probably my favorite covers from Case.

I'm with you on the jigged chestnut, Todd, but I've never had a Case with synthetic ebony covers. I think my second choice might be yellow delrin.

A full weekend planned, love this time of the year, even though it’s supposed to be in the 90s this weekend and upper 90s next week.
These two are with me today. View attachment 1931820View attachment 1931821

Couple of stygian stunners for Black Friday, Todd!

I have my new rope knife today. Love it!

Congrats on that sublime new knife!

Amazing bone on that Böker, Steve!

Glad you were able to apprehend that knife-stealing chickadee, Dan!

Have a great weekend folks

Dazzling double stag, Jack!

Memorable scarred stag on your Ashley's Choice lambsfoot!

...
How's this?

That might work!
(Of course that reopens the medieval philosophical argument about whether bigger font results in bigger post, or, alternatively, is the size of a post measured by the physical space it occupies or by the amount of content it contains.)

All the people took pictures of what they said they were carrying each day. Me too. Some of these guys have real nice ones.
The end.

Your summaries are much more concise than mine, Jeff!

Good question Gary. I have no idea. I know that some folks file the kick to help with that. I may give that a try myself.

They sure sell plenty of those '18 stockman knives, so the "design flaw" that's a pet peeve of mine must not bother very many people!

Nice light on the lamb today John.

Thank you, Todd.

Handsome horn, John!

Thank you, GT.

Is that turkey bacon?

Nope... it the piggy kind.

Next time, I'll be sure to write 100 words or more.

Be like Mike.
It does sound like the perfect start to the morning, and I like your Pinch a lot.

Great picture of your Blood Lamb.

A nice classic Alox.

I always enjoy your knife and dog pictures... they make me smile.

Such a wonderful knife.

Now it's my GEC Esquire 09 in Rust Red jigged bone for a couple of days. Maybe someday GEC will do another run of these.

 

[Jiki]

Carving club today.

 

[black mamba]

Something about this time of year ! View attachment 1933040

Something about that craggy stag if you ask me! Gorgeous #78. I went to the Wayback Machine for this one, my first ever GEC.

 

[Ultiman]

Not necessarily a single knife, but I recently completed my preferred trio of Ritchies.
