What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

I am known among family and friends of always having a knife. Most everything I carry is domestic. I was gifted two (the other at home) Rosecraft knives. Without an exhaustive explanation, they are based in the US and design knives that are produced off shore. Their intent is to have US manufacturing in the future 🤞

I hope it works out because this is a very impressively built knife, f&f is really quite remarkable and being a gift, I will carry with pride.

Paired today with my Viper...

I admit I don't know a lot about Rosecraft blades, but they have several models that are stunning, including this one you posted.
 
c.1947-1955 Imperial (not shell construction) Engineer's Knife, Douk Douk EL BARAKA, and Copper & Clad Buck 110 with 5160 blade, Brass & "Oak" covers stay on belt.
Pocket carry change to my BF 391222 BUNNY KNIFE, #291(my '23 Traditional KOTY.)

Snowed throughout most of the day yesterday. Stayed home and kept the back porch, the sidewalk to the gate, and the sidewalk to the pump house clear and made about a six foot path out into the back yard next to the pump house for Utah the Doxie. Headed to town in about an hour. Our road has been plowed once but it's a slippy/slidey road so it'll be a slow trip. Conrad, our mailman, brought this SS Case 6347 Crimson Peach Seed Stockman up to the house yesterday afternoon to save me a trip up to the mailboxes in the snow. He's a good guy. I'll be totin that knife today.

Yesterdays carry my only 15.

I went for a short walk in a big park, then a short nostalgia walk where I used to live.

Park Town was the poshest part of town, I had a small bedsit in someones posh house.

You have to be vetted to buy a house there,it has its own park hence the name I guess.

My girlfriend at the time was asked to leave the park when she was waiting for me once,I see they have put a lock on the gates now.

She was a sweet thing, not some cans of special brew swallying, heavily tattoed,tab smoking ,belching behemouth (that probaly came after she left me for some twonk of a singer in a rock band). 🤭

We just wernt posh enough,I even got told of for washing my car in the street they just didnt do that sort of thing... 🤣



I went for a coffee nearby expensive as the areas houses.



Another pub I went into (to use the loos) was playing records not seen that in decades,talked to a nice lass on the way out.

I shall definetly go back there when Im better with and arm full of LPs and a thirst...are they ready for the Stooges no fun? 🤣🤣🤣




































This sign outside of one pub I see as a challenge, I shall have to go back when I am better and have a go.:cool:

I’ve been collecting pens and knives since I was in middle school!! I taught myself how to restore fountain pens 25+ years ago, but I don’t do much anymore. I’ve repaired just about every make and model. And yes, there are several Dorics in that case. Some of the best writers I have. I have some pretty high end modern pens, but since I’m semi-retired, they don’t get used.

Impressive all on fronts. My office has gone paperless, so I struggle to find things to write with my fountain pens, so it's mostly to do lists.

To incorporate knives back into the discussion, here are my daily carried for today. SAK Climber I am really taking a shining to, and my Colonial pen knife. The SAK has its tiny blade out so as not to give the pen knife a complex.
