My pleasure. It's a really nice little knife, that doesn't get carried enough. I've had it for many years. The blade is D2, and the covers are Camel bone.

My Pemberton again; These don't necessarily have the worst jigging GEC has done; but it's up there. Darned nice little knives though.

Already getting some good use on it.

Nice and thin, I like it.

That's a good looker.

Nice and thin, I like it.

Thanks, John.
In 1975, when my canoe was made, I was nice and thin, too.

Thanks, guys! The penguin-bat was definitely the easier costume of the two to put together. Penguin onesie , bat wings .



Good looking pair of Tidioutes. (Be glad I didn’t use the shortened nickname I’ve seen some people use! Even worse than “slippies.” )



A couple good looking knives there, Todd. Is the #77 cocobolo?



Always fun battling critters, isn’t it? We’ve never had much trouble in the house (knock on wood), but I’m always keeping mice out of the garage. A couple years ago a woodpecker got in the garage, which I discovered when he tried pecking an escape route in the soffit. After I got him to stop doing that, he just flew around up in the rafters, and I didn’t know how I was going to get him out. BB gun would’ve been the easy solution, but that would be a violation of the Federal Migratory Bird Treaty of 1918, so of course I absolutely did not shoot it with a BB gun. Instead I asked him politely to leave, and he did.

I’ve got these two with me today.

Dig that Schrade, Barrett! Do you rotate between the two that you found at the Badger Blade Show, or just keep one stashed in reserve?
That other knife looks cool, too. Dig that unique Delrin!
Regarding troublesome critters, follow the old rule of SSS. Shoot, Shovel, and Shut Up.

Great leather work, G2!

These two were made to be carried together. Have a great day everyone.

Gorgeous over the top Burl, Paul!
What kind of soldier duty are you doing today?

Took the peanut for a quick grocery run. I just needed a couple of items- lettuce, bread, cheese. The local small town grocery had Honey Crisps on sale
View attachment 2376951

To be honest, a Peanut can handle almost everything.
I do all of our grocery shopping, so I have some experience in these matters. I’d say say little bag of supplies cost you about $75.98

It’s quite simple. Start with a block of wood, and just remove anything that doesn’t look like a chain.

I wish I knew what kind of wood the English Jack is made from.

I’m going to guess Brazilian Cherry, or African Bloodwood.
We need a poll, and a prize for the winner!

I really like this pairing.

I don’t blame you, and given that it is late spring Down Under, white shoes are appropriate for the well dressed gentleman.

Good Morning Porchsters,

I am driving out today to pick up a new old pen knife, so I am double teaming. I am going to try Amir Fleschwund trick of long coat, will put on the Northumberland, that's pretty storm proof. A new (new) knife to me is the sowbelly, made by China Marbles, I figured that they would have access to the old designs and patterns, I am starting to think that the sowbelly is the perfect combination of function followed by form, the design of the handle perfectly suited to ALL three blades, the spey sits in the perfect position, a continuation of the finger. The build on marbles this is not as good as the queen I showed the other day.

The scandi is one of the best built knives I have, its just come out of it's annual 1 week soak in Linseed oil so I have given it a brush up for its day out.

Nice Scandi, Wayne

Has the two blades I use the most.

Thank you Todd

Wow! Spectacular pair Paul

Thanks a lot Jon, not bad

Have a good Friday folks

Nice pair of modern day classics, JB.
I hope you had your Barbour at the market!

Case, Wright, Sabre, Camillus.

That Camillus is sweet, Jer.

I’m mowing every day, but not grass ~ chopping and bagging leaves.

For ballast purposes, I suggest one knife in each front pocket so you don’t walk in circles.

Both appeared to have factory edges when I bought them, so I left the nicer one as-is, and sharpened the one with some spots on the blade for a user. I picked up a stainless Schrade+ one recently, too.

That other knife looks cool, too. Dig that unique Delrin!

Thanks, Jeff. That’s actually wood (Afzelia Burl), not Delrin.

Regarding troublesome critters, follow the old rule of SSS. Shoot, Shovel, and Shut Up.

Ahhh. A lovely day of British liquid sunshine .

Be a very tidy match for that fantastic Stag Trout&Bird of yours Dan you can pick a flat grind one out for me too please I simply hesitate to buy a Stag knife from them online when I can't see a picture of the knife...Harry says there's no bad Stag but some is bad than worse

Thanks, Will

I deem your 33 the Porch Stag mascot in the category of “so ugly it’s cute”.

It’s Friday! Not sure why this dude is so grumpy… have a great day friends.

I may be a bit biased, but I do believe this is a dynamite pair. Curves and grain for days.
