Interesting knife! Great uncle and I believe my great grandfather worked at the Peabody mines around Coal City, Illinois back in the 1950'sView attachment 2095196
One of my favorites today! Might have to switch it for something more fancy for a wedding tonight, or maybe not…
A very underated pen knife,love it.Getting ready for spring training![]()
That’s really neat. I love the history of some of the old funky ones. I like to imagine the staff getting these back in ‘83 and being stoked.Interesting knife! Great uncle and I believe my great grandfather worked at the Peabody mines around Coal City, Illinois back in the 1950's
Compared to countrys like Spain etc. ours is blander than a bland thing,you have to hunt for good stuff.Absolutely, unfortunately here in the state, we don't get good cheese or sausage in the grocery store like this. The similar package comes with boiled ham and extra bland "cheddar".
Agreed each to there own.Great old knife
Dontcha love the way the old cocobolo darkens with age ~ and assorted oils and fluids related to working man’s knives? Nice Ulster, JJ.
“Butter knife edges”
Makes you wonder if that was an official policy, or what?
Anyway, sharpening a knife is a tactile pleasure, right?
I’ll call you Master Of Good Lighting
Fortunately, there are sellers on the ‘bay that have all of the SAK accessories. I need to snag a couple of toothpicks that I’ve lost. That’s the only drawback to the Alox knives~ no toothpick or tweezers, which are sooo handy.
I certainly hope that coffee is Strong to go along with those strong knives.
I like the way the cutler left the rough forged part on your blade ~ looks great.
1 1/2” of fresh powder last night cannot stop me from thinking about hitting the river!
I refuse to have a knife that I won’t use, but to each their own. Some porchsters get a lot of pleasure in collecting pristine knives and keeping them that way, and I do enjoy seeing them here.
Thank you very much my friendThank you, Jack. I always enjoy seeing your Hartshead Barlow. I often pair a small fixed with a slip joint, or a small with a larger knife. That happened to be a fixed paired with a small.
M&G Yankee Whittler (GEC 78) today. May visit my local knife shop today, which almost always means coming home with something new.

Considering how much I love a stockman pattern I was dumb and never picked one of these up when they were around.
