What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

I haven’t owned an Opinel since my first school trip to France where it was promptly confiscated by a teacher but yours has definitely put one back on the list of wanted knives ! What is that handle - walnut ?
The Tina is new to me and a stunner too ……
Andy

It is stained oak with a tung oil finish. Thank you. 😊 :thumbsup:

That Tina is good looking.
Is that the grafting knife?

Yes, the model 606 grafting knife. I like the Tina's quite a bit. ;)😊:thumbsup:
 
My first lamb foot and a sunset shot from yesterday….

Great work mate👍👍
What was it like in the hand before you carved it?
Thanks for sharing.

Thank you. I am still trying to decide what to do for the final finish. It has fought me, every step of the way. It was like a baseball bat in the hand before I carved it. The blade is way down in the well when you get them. My suggestion is to just buy a finished one, strip the finish, and carve on it if you like, not fool around with the carve your own. ;) 😊
 
Passing the time today in silence. Turned the ringer off. Football on the TV, yes, but on mute. Silence is golden.

Finally motivated and have a little time to at least start a new little man to replace the one my dogs ate a good while back.
Glad you have some time and motivation Jon, can’t wait to see what you come up with. 😎👍

The jigging on that one is great, Todd.

I carried my stag 25 yesterday and started building a small fence around our new front patio.

No skate park this morning, as I’m headed to work to ship some bred heifers we sold. I’ve got this Imperial in my pocket.

Two winners Jon. 😎👍
 
Had this Alox Pioneer with me today. Mrs. Crappie is feeling under the weather, so I pulled off a handful of pine needles and steeped her a cup of pine tea.

Hope Mrs. Crappie gets better soon.
I heard about pine needle tea as a home remedy but have not tried it. Will any pine needles work?
