[SteveC]

Case 6347 and Spalty Lamb

 

[Will Power]

Cleaned up nicely

Or perhaps it's changed colour and is wearing its winter coat ? Looks a lot tidier And you got all the luck

 

[JJ Cahill]

Très belle paire, JJ!

JJ, with your dual Hammer Brands, you're like John Henry, a steel-drivin' man!

Thank you very much for your kind words, Gary!!!

 

[Amir Fleschwund]

Definitely agree with the etching removal.

Hibou Canne ~ Sometime back, seeing the photos, I decided I’d do the same.
The question is, do I just let it wear off by using the heck out of it, or intentionally remore it?

They do wear off ~ my Bull Nose etch is hardly visible after a couple years.

I carried this modern slipjoint to church this morning, and now have my "Beni" lambsfoot in pocket.

 

[ephsea]

Busy day! These two helped plenty.

5K Qs said "That SAK is intriguing! I'm guessing it's customized. What did it start life as??"
Thank you it's from Robert Lessard, it's a mostly stock Super Tinker with milled Ti scales, outer liner delete, and brass inner liners. I was impressed with the fact that it still has a tweezer slot and the tweezer head has been replaced with brass.

Lot to like in that Hubertus Springer, some years ago you could come across such things in Germany quite easily, days long gone. Very appealing wintertime shot too.

Regards, Will

Thanks Will! I’ve had the Hubertus at least 30 years; it has a lot of miles on it. Plus the pile side has really nice stag on it.

Hi Will
You are right, it looks way cleaner without the etch. Very happy with the number 13 . I drop the knife on the floor yesterday but it did no dammage. guess im lucky

Hi buddy
Definitively looks better without the etch . I like to remove it intentionally and start the patina on a clean blade. They do wear off but its after lot of use, I have too much knife in my rotation to only carry this one

Paul, that may be the finest pocket knife I’ve ever seen. The stag flows with the knife. I really like the long high lines, perfect for the long pattern. I think I would trade all my knives for that one. They haven’t done Natural Stag since around the time they stopped doing shields on stag.

After all these years and knives, my first SAK. What is this tool on my 'Officer'?

It’s a parcel hook.

It's for carrying parcels tied with string by the string that ties them.

Celebrating my graduation today.

Celebrating my graduation today.

Congrats

Also the powder horn I presume
Such an interesting pattern

It's like a toothpick...but for men

That actually is a toothpick, or at least GEC's rendition of it. This is their Toothpick with a saber grind:

This is a GEC Powderhorn. Note the full-sized clip main:

It is my most often carried GEC knife. I carried it some today, coincidentally.

 

[JJ Cahill]

Many thanks for the kind words my friend, Shadow Pens are the classiest of patterns, and those are perfect examples

Thank you very much for your wonderful insight, Jack!!!

Have a great Sunday everyone

Great way to spend your Sunday with those two American Beauties, one a direct descendant from Britain; your classic hand drill is quite an eye catcher, too!
