What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

I've got Beni in pocket for the weekend. Hard to beat handling a chunk of gnarly stag in the pocket.

Miscellaneous Knife of the Week is a Rough Rider smooth tobacco bone lockback medium trapper (thanks, Todd) that's the same knife I posted as the Locking Knife of the Week earlier this week.
And, as I noted a couple of days ago, my Lambsfoot of the Week is Cracker Jack, a stag lambsfoot that I posted earlier this week as my Stag/Horn Knife of the Week.
I'll modify my rotation schedule so that I don't have these 2 repetitions in the same week.

I continue to carry the SBJ gifted from Chief Chief everyday. Such a pleasure in my pocket and my hand. I have always liked the edge that Case’s CV will take but this knife in particular gets really sharp. I nearly got bit yesterday and it was like a razor blade, shaved a chunk off my finger but didn’t draw blood.

R rishma beautiful example of a great pocket knife. Would be remiss if I didn't shout out a thanks to zippofan zippofan for letting it go early last year. I carried it a few times and probably stropped it. Straight edge CV gets wicked easily. Glad to see it get the love it deserves.

Going to carry this beautiful forum knife given to me by Duane sitflyer sitflyer shortly before his passing. To say it's special doesn't do it justice. RIP brother.

Flattery will get you nowhere, my friend. 😂
Wanted to tote a special one today.

Nice looking pair Gary !
 
We're home today with nothing planned. The wildlife in our area seems to be under control so I won't need a heavy Buck 112 on my belt today. Instead, I'm carrying my SS Ebony Sowbelly Stockman. Plenty of knife for whatever I'll run across today. Hash and eggs up for breakfast.

Very nice indeed :) :thumbsup:
Good pair of knives.
Thank you :) :thumbsup:
Unlike many of you, I only have two Bokers. This Electrician, and another of the same model converted to a single blade Jack that @JohnDF surprised me with awhile back.View attachment 2446031View attachment 2446032View attachment 2446033
I have this one, but it has been foreshortened, (a phrase more commonly used here in relation to illegally owned shotguns and armed robberies!) :eek: :thumbsup:

Sweet pairing :cool: :thumbsup:
 
Is it possible for a knife to get more beautiful over time??
Only when its owner's heart grows ;)
I needed help on that one 🤣🤣🤣.
So did I, but only one of us admitted we needed help and asked the great(?) god google.

Excellent knives David! Could you tell me more about the long skinny one (I don't know the word for this pattern, obviously)? Depending on how you feel about snow, feel free to send any excess our way ☃️

I still haven't managed to make one stick here, Jeff, so I'm Bokerless if that makes you feel more knife-adequate? How do you like that Boker electrician compared to, say, this TL-29 sent to me by a generous and green-thumbed Porch member?

Crappie71 Crappie71 I can't believe you took the mud puddle challenge, and without missing a beat. I like the cut of your jib, sir!

Yesterday's carry, became today's when I woke up a bit late for Dr. appointment. Maybe later I change pants and treat you all to another picture (of the knife, not me changing pants)? Decided to reverse Wednesday's carry for Thursday and grabbed my biggest traditional and second smallest fixed.

The TL in its natural environment. No better tool for stripping the jacket off stranded wire has been invented, the TL rarely if ever nicks fine strands unlike modern wire strippers. I appreciate the thicker stock and synthetic handles on this one, it's one of my hardest working knives.
Happy Friday denizens of planet Porch!

It's a Flag Brand sheep castration knife made by Christopher Johnson Western Works Sheffield England. It quit snowing at the moment. Hope we get a little more.
