I dig that Spey Western!

You could conquer the world with that trio, Jeff. Very cool, my friend.

Thanks much, my friend! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.

Me? I love a shield on Stag, must be some confusion

Many apologies, my Fine Finn Friend. Somehow I got mixed up, which happens often, according to my wife.
Cheers, Will, and that’s a fine knife!

Good evening porchsters,

Don't carry these as much as I should really, I plan to change that, Sentinel and a Buck 151, this was my introduction to supersteel. Bos treated S30v, it was a skeleton if you remember, but I liked the knife that much I had a handle put on it. I will make a couple of sheaths when I get a minute.

Nice handling job!
The Victorinox Sentinel looks like a great knife ~ what’s the closed length?

73 liner lock today...

Meanwhile, Mr. Mallard should be berry proud of himself...

Great shot! Perfect timing.

Interesting Bowie

Good insights on knife guards!
I picked this Bowie up at a little Ozark gunshop back in the early ‘80s for my truck driver’s weekly lunch budget of $20.
All I know about it was that some local guy forged it, and stamped 1981 on the blade.

I made the sheath before I knew how to stitch leather.

I did a lot of polishing on the blade and cleaned up the finish.

Little behind. Carried this one all weekend.

Micarta and Metal, best thing about Mondays. That and T-day leftovers (we did ours yesterday). . Hope everyone on the Porch is staying as warm and dry as they want to be.

 

[Beard&Owl]

Chow time.

 

[JW225]

Great shot! Perfect timing.

Thanks, Jeff -- gotta say, I was pretty darn happy when I saw how that one came out!

That's quite a skill!

Are you referring to me, or the duck? Sorry, Jack, sometimes, I just quack myself up...

T-bone today

 

[OldHercDude]

I've been working on getting out to the conservation area or a nature preserve 3 or 4 times a week for walking and snapshots, usually forget to snap a pic of the pocket knife. This one was with me today for Micarta Monday.

Carrying the Douk Douk today. The weirdness and it's ability to take a stupid sharp edge have really endeared this knife to me.

Also a little Chiefs related novelty from my recliner side table. Go Chiefs!

That's a sweet one!!!

SAK of the Week is a Victorinox folding paring knife; I suppose it's technically not a Swiss Army Knife aka SAK. I didn't intentionally plan my rotation schedule so this knife appeared during Thanksgiving Week, but it certainly is a happy coincidence: I think it's a wonderful knife for carving turkey! Long blade, light weight, liner lock, grippy handle even when somewhat greasy, very portable (rounded tip is not ideal, but not big deal, either).


Stockman of the Week is a Rough Ryder midnight swirl gentleman's (I think this means it's a bit shorter than "normal") sowbelly stockman (thanks, Todd):

That's a sweet one!!! Those certainly caught my attention when I discovered them, although I'm still uncertain of the pronunciation. Not sure if I should grab a roll of tissue or yell "GOOSE!!"

Took a couple of minutes before I figured this one out.
That's a good one, Chris, but I think I'd better go to bed!

[PenisMightier]

That's a sweet one!!!

Thanks! I did a forced patina on it to protect against rust and accidentally got some mustard on the handle too. It turns out the handle does NOT react the same way to acid that the carbon steel does, although it creates a nice weathered look. If you polish up the flats near the pivot it smooths out the action real nice. I have heard it pronounced duke duke, but I have no idea if that is right or not.

I*XL Lamb and a Possum Skinner

The possum skinner is in my opinion the best GEC pattern.

 

[Jakeywax31]

I dig that Spey Western!

Thank you. It is a cool little cutter. Keen thin edge used for......well you know.

[JJ Cahill]

Great to see you here JJ I was going to throw a shout-in my post I hope you're keeping well my friend

Thank you very much for your kind words, Jack!!! I've been getting a bit overwhelmed, as of late, with family matters.

I'm sticking with the Peasant and adding my K'roo Lambsfoot

Those two beauties look mighty fine, perfect for your Sunday best! The very unique Lamb you had with your Svord on Saturday was super cool, as well!

 

[JJ Cahill]

Glad you had time to stop by JJ.
I'm a big fan of both of those straight edges.

Thank you most kindly, Bob! The older I get, the more I appreciate the fine cutting lines of a straight edge (especially those of the Lamb and Wharncliffe variety )
