What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

My wife is mocking my food and knife pictures as she travels to Georgia to see daughter who is expecting.😃View attachment 2387433View attachment 2387434View attachment 2387435
My wife’s mom came and stayed with us through each of her three births. It’s a mom thing, and a beautiful thing.

Can't believe I've never paired these two before, my biggest slipjoint and smallest (and sharpest) fixed blade. I'm pretty pleased with myself.

But I'm way more pleased with this guy, who I took to his first Cub Scout meeting today. He took right to it! I've been trying to get him to go, without seeming pushy (kids push back), for about 18 months now. Huge sigh of relief, and I'm all puffed up with Dad-pride. 😁. Looking forward to hopefully years of helping him with merit badges and outings with the troop.
I sure hope he enjoys Scouts, Fred.🤙

For sure, you can get him his first Cub Scout Knife, and help him earn his Totin Chip.
 
Staying with the Barlow theme 👌Sunday best Case xx 1940/64 in sawcut Appaloosa bone. The build quality on these old knives is exceptional, and puts the modern equivalent to shame …I just don’t understand how they could produce this quality back then , yet today they turn out far inferior quality knives 🤷‍♂️View attachment 2388231
Nice Case Barlow.
Don’t be too hard on them, it’s a miracle that you can still walk in to a store, and buy a new Made In The USA knife.
Even if you may have to sort through a few to find a good one.
 
Love that pic Steve :cool: :) :thumbsup:

Thanks buddy !

I've been up to my neck in work yesterday, and I diodn't get a chance to post yesterday, which doesn't happen very often :( I hope everyone is having a good weekend. Armistice Day yesterday, here in the UK, and Remberance Day today :thumbsup:

Nice pair for remembrance day ! 👍

I hope you get a more relaxing day today !
 
It is a beautiful site seeing them together in pictures. We may even become part time southerners after Gracie is born.

Have a great day Jeff.
I intend to, and nuthin’s happened yet. 👊

Bob, my Best Girl would love to move to Colorado to be close to Josh and Ashley and our two grandchildren. And I would love to move to Georgia or Alabama to be closer to Jason’s girls. That would be more feasible financially. But as it is, we can’t leave N. Illinois while we’re still blessed to have our parents. Have to settle for road trips or the mercies of the airlines for now.

You are obviously blessed with a fine family. It does tug at the heart not being able to be close to everyone.
My visa lapsed and have to go through the long wait for a new one to visit my other daughter in England.
