Wonderful Lockbacks, could you please say something about them? The Damascus has very interesting scales.

When you ask for something accessible, if you don't get it, you're sad, if you get it, you are momentarily satisfied.
When you ask something unrealistic, if you don't get it , you're not sad, only player can win. But it you get it the joy is incredible.

The moral of the story : NEVER BE REALIST !
Thanks so much Charlie waynorth and @Rhidian

Most beautiful amber beads, J-M!!!

These are Bakelite beads not amber. Old Bakelite beads in the komboloi market are more expensive than some sort of amber.
It's funny because for most of people the Bakelite is only plastic. But it's the first polymer ever produced. It revolutionized the industry.
Today what remains ( it's not produced anymore as it was) is used to make jewels because it's heavy and has some beautiful colours.

The knife's not bad, either, realistically!!

One is a gift ... from you

Ibberson Action Knife range,

Maravillosos Lockbacks, ¿podrías decirnos algo sobre ellos? El Damasco tiene escalas muy interesantes.

Böker 98K. Hoja Damasco hecha con el cañón de un fusil Máuser y mango simulando el de la bayoneta en madera de nogal.
El otro es un Hubertus de caza típico alemán.

Sweet knives Bob. If cutting was truly the only reason for having a knife, an Opinel is all anyone would need.

Since cutting isn’t truly the only reason for having a knife, I have this one today. It’s a good slicer and it looks good also.

Agreed Todd...economical and efficient.

Stag/Horn Knife of the Week is a Buck stag canoe:



And here's a knife I received in 2023 that will go into the Stag/Horn category of my rotation schedule when I update the schedule; this knife will show up in the schedule's International Knife category, too. Bruckmann pen knife with horn covers (thanks, Bob):



Colonial/Imperial/Schrade Knife this week is a little Imperial serpentine jack that my wife discovered among her possessions almost 10 years ago; she thinks she got it from her father when he got a new knife. It got me reinterested in pocket knives after not carrying one for about 45 years.


Here are some vintage American knives gifted to me LAST year (thanks, Tom) that somehow got overlooked when I was constructing my rotation schedule. (Tom sent me some knives from other countries that ARE in my schedule. )
Large Imperial Stockman:


Small Imperial celluloid jack:


Colonial Ranger big jack:


Here's an Imperial clip/pen toothpick that a BF member kindly offered to sell me (thanks, Jeff):


Another vintage American gift knife that's not made by Imperial, Colonial, or Schrade so it will eventually show up on my schedule as a Miscellaneous Knife - Ideal jack (thanks, Tom):

Love the fire and the knives!! Nice pics, Bob.

Out the door in a few minutes with these two. Won't be wearing the Mocs today though, might be spring before that kind of footwear is put to use again.
