What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Out for our trail walk with a Remington RH 71 and a nylon Recruit today. Lousy pic in woods so I took more when we got back. Jack insane after encountering female dog on the path!

Great selection of knives, FC. Hope your wife is feeling better.
She is Bart, thank you twice. Please *don't* go too long without carrying that Eureka Jack (and showing us), still my favorite pattern and I love the Case bone, both their jigging and the dyeing. BTW I'm really impressed that you would get on that ramp, I would be terrified of breaking something that wouldn't grow back!

I’m glad you told us all this, FC. In case any of us get to feeling sorry for ourselves…

Here’s a thought to cheer you up!

With that group of knives, you don’t need a knife budget anymore!😗
Aw heck no use feeling sorry for myself, it could always be worse I figger; I could have *not* had spare cash for kerosene and a heater, I could be the kind of person that wouldn't/couldn't work on their hot water heater and would have had to pay a plumber to install a new one (est. cost 3-10 knives), and neither the boy nor I got sick. And certainly I don't need any more knives, lucky to have that disposable income to smooth out life's bumps. My son is six, I expect him to start costing me a lot more money soon so just trying to get my licks in while I can 😅 Thanks for sharing that story about your Pop overloading the 250 and taking you around the Boundary Waters until you caught dinner, hope I can provide experiences like that for mine!

FC a fine collection. More importantly I hope your families life returns to normalcy soon.
Thank you Bob, wife seems much recovered as she's back to hounding me over chores... What was that folder you posted above your Friday Frenchman, if I may ask? Looked a gentlemanly jack to be sure.

Yesterday's carry. I love love the awl on the Alox, a real blade-saver of a tool. I must track down a drover one of these days...

And my Sheffield Jack I got on a trade arrived yesterday and made it into the pocket today. It was love at first strawberry, surprised at how much more substantial if feels in hand than the Boy's Knife, despite being almost exactly the same size. Even my kid likes this one, normally he's bored as could be with my knives (until he needs his apple sliced).

Glad to hear all is changing for the better.
