After carrying that pair all day, Paul, you must have had sweet dreams that night!

...

Just my Hartshead Barlow today Have a good one folks

Your stag HHB doesn't need any back-up!

Thank you Gary, it is a great coin pocket carry.

I can believe that, Bob!

Good morning everyone.
I hope Canada gets relief soon. The air quality is the worst since the EPA began tracking it way down here in New Jersey.

Sorry to hear about your horrible air quality, Bob, but your knife quality is first rate!

White Owl for my annual doctor's appointment and then grocery shopping later this morning.

View attachment 2210417

Nice shot of your Owl in a (pine?) tree, Mike!
Was the annual appointment the yearly "Medicare consultation"? Did you have to remember 3 words? Both my wife and I, who had our appointments a few months apart, had to remember "banana", "chair", and "sunset" (or was it "sunrise"? How soon I forget.).

Couple of real lookers there Gary

From the Black Sea Thanks buddy
...

Thanks, Jack.
Thanks for the Black Sea info. You'd think I'd have more geographical knowledge about a country called Bul-GARY-a!

Nice jigging on that Stockman and the OT is a classic !

Thanks, Steve.

I like it.

I’m following Big Mike’s lead and going with the owl. Hope your doctor’s appointment goes well. View attachment 2210559

Classy White Owl, Todd!
Would you ever consider smoking a not-very-classy White Owl cigar when you carry that knife??

I finally broke down and called my doc. After approving what I’d been doing, he wrote me an rx for an antibioric.
It’s funny how easy and quick it is now to get a “Tele-Med” chat with your doc, post pandemic. Sure beats going in person, and a bit cheaper, too.

Spent yesterday driving T-posts for trellising my pole beans, and put some old chicken manure around my eighty tomato plants. Well, 79. One didn’t make it.
Today, plan to plant green onion seeds down the rows of tomatoes. I’ve already relocated my Walla Walla sweet onions and leeks, that I’d started in the greenhouse.
Pleasantly cool for working outside, alrhough we’re on an ozone alert due to those fires in Alberta. Between that, and this cough, I’m just pokin along pacing myself.
Well, you all have a fine day!
Totin Schrades for Wood and Whittler Wednesday…View attachment 2210538

Jeff, I hope strong coffee, the feel-good knives, and an antibiotic will get you healthy ASAP.

Bocote and Sepia today. Enjoying these two.

Striking bocote grain, Jon!

Good pair for your appointment Paul. Hope scan finds no trouble.
We are all going to need more comfortable rockers for the porch soon.

Is there enough space on The Porch for me to get one of those beds with an electric motor to raise and lower the head of the bed?

Lamb and a Pony Jack

Sweet pair, Steve!
(Is Lamb and Pony Jack related to dog and pony show? )

Totin' my whole canoe collection today

Commendable collection of canoes!!

View attachment 2211256

When I hear "Böker Barlow", that's still the knife model I think of!

I grabbed these two French lock back jack knives today.

As always, that Camargue Cross is captivating, JJ!

A couple of nice classics today, Gary

Thanks, Bart.

Thanks GT I'm a couple years away from Medicare. I did have to fill out a survey regarding anxiety/depression/insomnia. I told her I work hard at living a drama free existence
Its a persimmon tree. It flowers, and for a brief period every year buzzes with bees - a friend once asked, "What's that noise?" as he stood under it - but it never bears fruit

Carrying Old 496 today.


The wily groundhog. I usually can't get this close to him before he jets away.

 

[JonesJorgen]

Been a long time since I’ve carried this, I forgot how perfect it feels in hand.

 

[JW225]

Don’t know how you feel about it, r8shell , but I think the 29 is pretty darn hard to beat as a great all-around pocket knife. Love that Burnt Sienna jigged bone!

 

[bigfish64]

Thanks, Todd.
Does this knife make my mustache look big?

No…not at all!

Classy White Owl, Todd!

Three that arrived 06-07-23 demanded to be carried. Bunny 291 and the Case CV Canoe graciously agreed to cut their 06-23 pocket time.
(full size) Svord Peasant is clipped to the SAK metal belt loop.
Higonokami #10 is loose in FRP.
Douk Douk EL BARAKA is in RFP, held vertical with a clipped to belt.

The MAM Iberica is basically always in the pocket at work, it's a cardboard murderer and exceptionally light, plus it's simple enough to operate one handed if I need to, and it's got a little reverse liner lock tab in it, which is clearly superior to the slip-prone Vibrolock

Thank you; your red jigged bone isn't too shabby, either.
I agree, it's got my favorite combination in a three bladed knife: a curved and pointy main blade, a short straight edged blade, and a poking/scraping tool.

Defiately a slicer n' dicer.
I have the no lock version.

It’s going to be a double special day here in the City by the Bay! Of course that calls for the Harvey Special and the Modoc Special! Looks like it’s going to be a beautiful day to boot. Giants play at noon so I’ll be glued to the tube!
