What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Makes great sense, I always keep mine in either their own pocket or in a pocket with nothing like keys or metal pens. :)

I bet your pockets are full of stone dust. I asked because when I worked at the proving grounds next to a test track my pockets filled with dust which was a very abrasive mix. My knives got that character quickly.

Honestly, I use the tar out of them and have lots of stuff in my right pocket lol. I start the day with my knife, pen(metal case) and keys. By the end of the day Ill have change and anything else I pick up in there. I can not bring myself to put anything in my left front with the cell phone. I lose an entire pocket to the stupid thing but I hate carrying them on my belt. Plus my hands usually have stone dust on them as well as silicon or polyester resin or sheetrock dust and I just use it and throw it back in my pocket. I clean them at the end of the day when I get home. Usually only oil once a week but sometimes I can feel the gritty-ness and flush it that night.
 
This was my carry for wW:

Stone dust is very abrasive. On days when I have to fabricate in the field I end up looking like Santa when I am done ;). You should see how fast my Carhartts fade.

Thanks, that brick pile of old Chicago brick is my favorite backdrop for taking knife photos. It seems that the camera makes good (auto) choices for shutter and aperture with that backdrop in shade or overcast conditions. I really like this knife in the oak covers.

With all the Alox talk I felt like carrying my Solo today.

Not that it'll see much use....I'm having a liver biopsy at lunch time!
