I’m not too big in multi-blade traditional’s and still don’t own one with more than two blades but wow, that is quite the looker!!! Stunning blade, what pattern is it?

Thanks Peter, It’s a 79 workhorse whittler with primitive bone covers

This is the first real traditional knife/Slipjoint I purchased back in January 2020 and it’s a knife that will forever be the one that started it all for me in this traditional knife hobby. I don’t use it or carry it as much anymore because I have so many now but it’s great to get it out every now and then. Looking forward to getting my Bunny Knife and seeing what 2023 has in store for us from GEC! 😃

That’s a mighty fine knife 👍
Angus Jack and Cattle Knife

Nice combo both are beauty’s
That barehead jack is gorgeous… great taste 👍👍
 
Lovely old Remington, Dwight.

There’s a lot to take in here. Old monkey wrenches are cool.
That Empire is quite the collector’s item. As will be the GEC in a hundred years.

Nice shot of the patina and sharpened edge. Is this a 2137, or 2138? Proportionally, I’m guessing full size…

Now there’s a proud Papa. Or do they call you Opa?
Grand daughters can sure melt the heart, can’t they?

This is an outrage. Do you know how many knives could have been hafted with that ebony? 😁
Quite a dapper combo, Mitch.🤙

I could be happy with that pair, my friend.

Fine use of the lighting in your photography, Joey🤙 And fine totes.

You sent me off on daydreams of warm, white sand beaches.
I hope you remembered to protect your pasty white English skin from that near equatorial sun, my friend!

Speaking of fine photography…

Sweet pair, Bob! Functionally the same as Harry’s.

You’re not alone, but it looks like you have your knife needs well covered.
I do not envy our faithful Spark having to pack and mail all those rabbit knives. And one way to look at it is that we should be getting the higher serial numbers, meaning later production. Like buying a new Chevy ~ never buy the first year of a new model. Let them work all the bugs out on those low serial numbers! 😎

You know, the very first thought I had seeing your picture was Don’t Do It!

Probably from watching James Garner/Rockford Files last night where he cut a valve stem to stop the mobsters from tailing him…

Can’t speak for everybody else, but my breath is bated!
I vote the P’nut.


And now you know why your Wife always tells you to shut the door, Vince!
😁😁
Too true & a few horn handles😊
 
First time I've posted here in over a week, as I spent Christmas in Fuerteventura :) I hope everyone had a good one :thumbsup:

Great to see you back from your wonderful vacation, Jack; it's always a treat to see your trusty Hartshead slicer, too! :cool: ;) 👍👍
 
Does that mean your Bunny Knife arrived? :cool::cool::thumbsup:

Sorry, I forgot to respond before.
Not yet, but my patience runs deeper than Gitcheegoomie. And since you’re a Michigander, you know how deep that is.

Being fickle and impulsive, I went back on my vow to tote the 294 until the Rabbit hopped home. Even though the 294 is to me just about the ideal pocket knife, I do like to rotate some.

I am reasonably certain that it will not come in the next three days, so it has a fair chance at being my 2023 KOTY😉. But Harry gave me a couple that will be hard to beat out if it does make yet un ‘22.

The way I’ve been going, it could be my only knife purchase of next year.
