What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[sunknife]

I know I’ve told you before, but I love seeing that heritage jack every time.

Thanks, Bart. I have the set of 7 from that heritage run and rotate them in and out of carry, I enjoy the old timey look of them. Made in 2012
I think.
Carrying another from that set today, rosewood covered single blade. Also have this stag Solingen Cutlery knife in the pocket today.

Yesterday's carry that I forgot to post

Waynoth lamb and a Navy Utility knife from Imperial

The Imperial is the only one of the three makers of that knife I do not have. And that bone is drop dead gorgeous!

Your Missouri cedar reminds me of “a few” years ago. I wasn’t even 30 yet, but spent a couple of years working in a wood shop in Mack’s Creek. Mack’s Creek and Climax Springs were notorious because whenever the State Police caught a fugitive, that’s where they had run to.
We got pallets of cedar boards from the mill in Camdenton, and turned them into those cedar novelties that you see in all the truck stops and other tourist traps. Little log cabin bird feeders/houses, etc. Good times, but I must have inhaled way too much cedar sawdust and laquer fumes. We did not know better.

I love building guitar pedals, I made over 30 during the pandemic to keep my mind busy. Trouble is now I have way too many! Some old and new band mates got great deals on cool pedals though ;-)

Here's a bunch from earlier this year, some are sold, all were fun to make

After way too much time spent running through way too many pedals, this little group of six is doing it for me through my Pro Reverb. As you can see, I love optical comps.
Sadly, I went from two bands to zero (for now). Left the church where I’d played for 20 years, and my partner, a singer, songwriter for whom I’d been playing in a duo, decided to hang it up due to her MS making it hard for her to sing.

I can row a boat, canoe?
Don’t see too many Camillus Canoes here! Is it new to you?

Bob said I needed a purple knife to go with my orange…

I don’t like to disappoint.

Good thing, I am at my father-in-law’s house, and can steal one of his dozens of trappers to choose from!

If your father in law is not a member here, he should be. We could warn him to keep an eye on his sticky fingered son in law.

I won’t have all three of these in my pocket at the same time but they will all get pocket time today. View attachment 2030378

Have a great day everyone.

Looks like a fun use of your time off, Todd. Judging from your eyes, it looks like you’re a few beers in.

Raining now. Much better than snow. If it keeps it up, the snow on the ground might be melted before the end of the day and we'll be ready for fresh snow tomorrow. That's what the weather man on TV said and I always believe what my weatherman tells me. Today I'm gonna tote my 2022 Blade Forums Bunny Knife. Really looking forward to it. Oh, wait a minute. It hasn't arrived yet. It hasn't even shipped. Oh well. There'll be a place for it should it ever arrive. Sausage and eggs for breakfast.

Maybe your Forum Knife is going to be a Snowshoe Hare.

Don’t worry. I’m sure our rodents will get here. Right?
Right?

Sounds like fun Jon

Hartshead Barlow and an Old Friend for me today

..

Thanks Mr. Jack! The family had a blast. My youngest boy Sam (10 yrs) had a good time prepping a walking stick with the Lamb. He kept on getting chatty about wanting me to give it to him. I told him he could have it when he could open it! I think I’m safe for several more years! It’s a bear trap .

Beautiful stag pair today I might add!!!

 

[Amir Fleschwund]

Hey! Don’t see too many of those KA-BARs.
One of my favorites. Opens smooth and easy, but sings when it snaps.

To fit in with all of the animal knives being shown off lately, I have two animals today.
Cattle and Moose

Now, that's an interesting thought Jeff . Maybe it's going to arrive by sleigh?

Nice weather today in Western Massachusetts. Sak nylon Huntsman and Schrade LB5

 

[Hickory n steel]

Carrying my new 63032 stockman that arrived yesterday.

I'm already getting a patina started on the main blade.

It's not much yet, but I feel like having a nice juicy steak today and this blade looks up for the task.

Got a new leather slip from @Gary W. Graley, and it fits my Lionsteel Shuffler Barlow perfectly as if he'd made it just for this knife, so I shall be carrying that combo today and on the Eve before New Years Eve.

Love me a nice tall and slender slip

Thought I’d share this beautiful view I enjoyed yesterday

That’s some absolutely beautiful country, wish we had more river like that in SoCal

This gave me a good chuckle, I’m still patiently waiting for a tracking as well

Snapped this photo last night and I’ll be giving each one some attention today while I’m at my desk and making dog food for Iris later this evening.
