What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

The apple cutting schrade walden 881Y is about my extent of knife use this week while I’ve been home recovering from collarbone surgery. Everything went well, and now that I have a permanent metal plate in me I have a bit more in common with the knives. Things will be getting back to normal before too long, except I suppose metal detectors and the like won’t be big fans of mine.

It broke after I hit the ground, hard, at the last blackjack enduro of the year. Right before surgery I asked the doc how bad it was on a scale of 1-10, and he said 8. I don’t normally get such good scores on anything so I was a little proud of that one. Suffice to say it’s feeling a bit more comfortable now.

One of my all time favorite knives. I don’t know if it will actually heal you up faster, but it will definitely make you feel better.

Thank you, John. I'm looking forward to this year's forum knife, and can hardly wait to compare it with the clip/pen combination from 2013.

The first thing I'd do in your situation is test if a fridge magnet sticks.
Heal up fast!
 
What about those Swiss knives with the sleepy lions on them? You sure aren't showing them enough love ! 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤣

Can I see just one of them ? or two ? 😍 I forgot what they are called or who made them.😞
Sorry for my lack of attention, Mr. P … 😞
My ‘sleepy cats’ are actually an homage to the Lion of Lucerne … depicting the stone commemorative to the fallen Swiss Guard that lost their lives defending the Tuileries Palace at the onset of the French Revolution.
Here is the actual monument …

They are a modification to the Spartan pattern, done by a swiss company called Boegli. (some of the descriptions you find online state they are made by Victorinox but I believe that to be incorrect especially since the online retailer that sold me the silver one credited Boegli, and they come in a plain black box marked “Swiss made”. Further research discloses that Boegli is also a watchmaker that offers pocket watches that are similarly adorned.)
Ok, so there’s more than you ever wanted to know about these two …
