Sam

and its finally mine :D

Thanks SAM arrived this morning and it's a stunner

now to hunt down a #11....
 

Nice double reflection with all those shiny surfaces ;).
Usually I'm not a huge fan of spey blades, but this is one of the only examples I really like (and bakerg2g's panama trapper :)). Both blades really fit the handle profile perfectly.

I'm carrying the other #76

Glad to see the Douk Douk again Duane.

I received my Fox 'Nuragus' yesterday.
Gave it a wee tickle on the sharpening steel & ceramic rods and a strop. It took that superb edge as HFinn suggested. He neglected to mention how the horn handle was still a bit stinky from being worked *bleurgh*

Here are a couple of pics.

This one is the most colour accurate:

And this poser shows the natural G10/jade green look the horn can exhibit in certain lights. Very nice:

Have it all weekend whilst at the little ladies, so it should see some use in her kitchen. It's already attacked a few apricots.
 
Beautiful pictures today!

I'm gonna be totin' this 1993 Bulldog copperhead that arrived in today's mail.

My sincere thanks to klineh for selling me my first copperhead, my first Solingen steel bladed knife, and my second folder with green bone.

Sarah, Red Sox fan?

When I was small, our black-and-white TV got three channels, on which the Red Sox appeared semi-regularly (upstate NH). One of my first favorite players was George "Boomer" Scott; my mother would call me when he was up to bat, I'd come watch him strike out then go back to playing. A big treat was visiting my grandfather in Manchester. He had a color console TV, 12 or more channels, and most of the Red Sox games. Many nights at his house I'd fall asleep on the couch in his den, watching and then listening to the Red Sox lose. Carlton Fisk was my next favorite player; imagine my excitement at watching his Game 6 home run when I was 10 years old. I even got a special patch commemorating that home run, which I sadly lost with the jean jacket it was affixed to one 4th of July (I'd set my jacket down, then got up and left without it in the dark, post-fireworks.) I first visited Fenway Park on my honeymoon. Chills upon seeing the field, after all those years of tv-screen views. Fast-forward to 2004: a routine ground ball back to the pitcher, a throw to first, and the Red Sox win the World Series. Thinking about that still brings tears, not least because: never have I missed my grandfather more than I did that night, when I couldn't call him and share the moment after all those years. Everything since then has been gravy, ie, it's nice if they win, but it turns out I really only needed to watch them do it once.

Yes. :)

Awesome story Sarah....after Julian Javier & Bob Gibson in '67, The Big Red Machine in '75, Bucky (F) Dent in '78, Billy Buckner in '86, you bet I cried when the toss from Foulke to Mientkiewicz was completed. One of the greatest days/nights of my life!

Back on topic...another shot of todays carry...

This is one of the few from 10 years ago when I had many SJ's. It has spent many days in my pocket, even when I had clipped on moderns. Very handy wharncliff and small pen.



My photo skills are much in need of a brush up but that will come. Lots of sunny days here in Colorado and scenery too.
