Today's traditional carry is a Hungarian fruit knife and a folding Damascus. Switched to these today after working on my wife's car. Not sure why.
Being slightly Hungarian myself
I'd really appreciate some more info on those knives and if you have a link please email or pm me if you could.Being slightly Hungarian myself
Well I don't know much about the bottom one. It was something I got off of eBay a while ago. The top one is a Szankovits fruit knife. I am not sure how to go about getting one but here is a link to more information about Szankovits knives http://keseshaz.hu/?plang=en

Thanks!
I tied some of them, but not all. I used to tie a lot more, but between all of my other hobbies, it's hard to find the time anymore. Fishing was pretty good today!

Sharpened the Kent this morning and had it out in the wild for the first time this afternoon. Didn't take much to get the blades razor sharp, the kind of edge that will cut deep without you even feeling it. The only other knife I have with edges that are this thin is the Camillus swell end jack. Given when that was likely made and when Kents were made they could have been mates in the factory.

I may be slightly Hungover myself, but that bottom knife looks like a Corsican 'Vendetta' pattern to me

The Opie #2 is perfect for tasks where using the Pemberton would be overkill (he said, jokingly).
Almost pulled the trigger for pemberton but decided to get watch instead this month.
It sure is small and purdy knife. How does it work for you?

Ulster scout in pocket today, same as yesterday. Took the kids for a hike and used it to cut them some walking sticks, made an improvised fishing pole, trim some fishing line, cut some roots and dead wood to make a float, and tried unsuccessfully to carve a twig whistle (couldn't get the bark to slip off). Great afternoon, great little knife.
I've always been a small knife kind of guy, so for me, coming from a Case Peanut, the Pemberton is actually a more substantial feeling knife. I almost always have an Opinel 8 stashed in a coat pocket or cargo pocket, so for me the Pemberton is everything I need a knife to be. It looks pretty. I don't know how anyone could ever mistake it for a weapon. And I don't feel foolish opening mail at the office with it like I would flipping out a "folding broadsword" to quote Jackknife.
