What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Exquisite ebony, Jack; that gunstock looks very classy in black! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:
What is that vegetation behind your Guardians Lambsfoot?


Vibrant vintage jack, Jeff! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:


As a fan of the canoe pattern, those Oar Carvers have caught my eye on the rare occasions that I see them posted. :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:
Is it a better-than-average folding knife for whittling?


That's a "golden oldie" and marvelous find! :cool::cool::thumbsup:


I admire that multiblade barrel knife; I certainly wouldn't give it the boot! :thumbsup:🤓:cool:
Could the smaller blade be a lambsfoot?


Couple of fantastic Case examples, Stuart! :cool::thumbsup::cool:
I'm a big fan of the '47pattern in all of its manifestations, including a 4-blade model you posted recently in another thread (maybe the Who Still Carries a Case thread).


Cool photos, Jeff! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:


Mike, thanks for the cover info and for the well wishes for my wife. :)
She's getting around the house quite well now, including stairs, and hasn't used a walker for over a week, but she doesn't have much range of motion in the new knee yet, and is not close to being ready to drive a car yet.


So being retired is just a cover for your true profession as a ninja synth. eb. smuggler!?! Exciting! 🤓


Lovely lamb triplets, JJ! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:


Cool to see that you have that Vic Pocket Pal in the lineup with all those amazing knives! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:
I have an inexplicable affection for Pocket Pals!

This morning I noticed this guy just hanging out behind the house.

I wondered if he might be injured; while he was obviously keeping an eye on me, he didn’t seem skittish and made no move to get up even when I got closer. (I got close enough to take that chair down off the railing and get some closer pics.)

Eventually, after I had stepped back toward the house and Scout and I stood there for a bit so she could watch him, he got up and walked off, and didn’t seem hurt or anything. I guess he was just indifferent.

The buck looks content!
I’ve got my Albers Lamb and a #21 Bull Nose in my pocket today. Yesterday we got a new roof, after a full summer of going back and forth with the insurance company and roofing contractor. I had originally called out the contractor to look a minor issue, but he pointed out several spots where there was hail damage on the old shingles and suggested I called the insurance company. In the end we got about 2/3 of the cost to replace the whole roof covered by insurance. Considering the old roof was probably only a few years from needing to be replaced, I don’t think that’s too bad a deal.

Nice pair of knives!
Nice pic of those two beauties!
 
Could the smaller blade be a lambsfoot?
I'm not posting it over there to find out.

I'd say it's pretty close, but I think the point is too long in relation to the blade, and the descending curve is too gradual. It's also close to a Case Wharncliffe, which is close to a TEW lambsfoot I've got, which Jack has called atypical. It isn't a sheepsfoot or a coping.

Considering how off the wall so many manufacturers are with their names for blade shapes, normal and bizarre, I try not to worry about such things.
I's a short French blade.

But thanks. I like it too.
