What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Amir Fleschwund]

Had this one for a while. Finally cleaned up the edge and dropped it in the pocket. Almost too much for even hip pocket carry. Might have to pursue a sheathView attachment 2217682

Maybe you could try easing it into your pocket instead of cavalierly dropping it in?

Thanks, good buddy! Yes, Mr. Voos made good knives.
I wish he’d made others, like cattle knives, or trappers, but from what I’ve seen, all of his other knives were either little watch chain/jewelry type knives, and tablewear.
There’s another Voos, Emil. While “my Mr. Voos emigrated to the US, Emil rsnained in Germany. He is much more well known. He made a lot of daggers and fighting knives, and hunting knives.

I guess y’all are probably sayin to yourselves, “Self, what kind of goofball quotes his own post?”

This goofball, apparently.
Our friend Bob sent me a message with some interesting info on Voos. Interesting and contradictory to what I said above.

He was kind enough to correct me privately, but I value truth over ego, so let this be proof that I am still in the category the professionals call “Educable”.

Here’s part of what Bob sent, from Goins~

I’d sure like to see one of these in the flesh!

It's been a minute since I carried this sharp looking knife. Thanks again, @Modoc ED !! Also, apologies to Amir Fleschwund that my guitar only has four strings...

Hey! Those strings are a LOT bigger, so you’re the man!

Did I mention that the pastor at church is also our bass player?

I never even heard of Voos before I stumbled onto BF and you still know more about them than I do, even if some of it was wrong

Handsome pair Todd

Glad there wasn't much swelling, Jack. Maybe you'll be able to dance by Market Day this week!

Thanks Gary, I wish!

Outstanding pair, Jack!

Thanks again buddy

Cool pic of your WCLF Pete

Since the nail nicks were already so low to the frame, I had to file down the spine, turning the main spear into a narrow sheepsfoot. I did my best to blend the swedge, but it's not perfect. Perfectly usable knife now, though.

Really nice work Rachel

Rosie Lamb and a Utica cattle knife

Great-looking pair Steve I met a girl called Rosie at the weekend, and had to stop myself saying, "I've got a mate with a knife called Rosie!"

I might be there already.

I don't have a rotation chart like yours, so I don't have to worry about it.

Quality quartet Jer

Happy Double Lambsfoot Day, Jack! Your Hartshead Barlow Lambsfoot makes a mighty cool companion to your classic Rodgers Shadow Lambsfoot!

Many thanks my friend

A Trapper and a Toothpick today.

It's great to see this classic combination again JJ, love that big, beefy Trapper, and the Toothpick is a great foil

Rosewood and Walnut todday Have a great day everyone

Amir Fleschwund , even being eased into the pocket it is borderline for pocket carry. Did find an open top sheath for my Allegheny and it fits perfectly.

"Truth over Ego" makes a great motto.

I'm inspired to carry my Voos today. It's another knife that required a little reshaping of blades.

I think my knife toting theme this week is to read this thread while drinking my first coffee, see a post with a cool knife and remembering "Hey, I have one of those! I'll carry it today!"

 

[Corto_Malt]

Please don't stop! Great knives and warm, inviting pictures

So that's your defense Ed? "Well, they're the ones that gave me a license!"? With a sense of humor like yours, you'll probably get away with whatever it is. Just keep blasting that Amy Winehouse

Thanks for your interest.
Nice photo, I really like the handle of this knife and the patina of the blade.

Have a nice day
