What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

This is the one that eludes me. One day I will find you green jigged bone #62!

Great photo! :thumbup:

Thanks, it took me a while to find one myself as I missed them when they were initially produced, it has quickly become one of my favorites. I hope you are able to come across one somewhere sometime.

I'm headed to the woods for a campout and archery shoot this weekend. Need to make sure all the bases are covered. My coveted Charlow in my pocket and a Bark River 'Lil Canadian' on the belt:

It's a Böker 'Tree Brand' Copperhead, in a 'green' washboard jigged bone.

Difficult to get both the deep, North Sea, blue/green colour to show, or indeed the jigging....in the morning light of my bedroom anyway.

Steel seems excellent. Good edge out of the box, walk is a bit rough, should get better, talk is decent.

Pleased so far. Gonna tote this for a good few days.

Have a good weekend folks.

Your photography skills are great and you taste for truths even greater, Kris!!


This resonates with me so well:

... that which we are, we are,
made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Alfred, Lord Tennyson

May Presence, Will, and Observation grow stronger
So that that the Essential Self ( that which we truly are)
Overcomes the overpowering frailties of the human biological machine (HBM)
So that its Will grows stronger each day
Transforming the HBM into the Transformational Apparatus
it was meant to be.
Being and Soul that lasts forever.

It is a great day to throw this Steve Dunn, Mastersmith, shadow into my pocket, with a K.E. Lindblad on my hip. There is the Montana Folk Fest going on in town this weekend, lots of great music and food.

Smithhammer, good luck in the shoot. I am beginning my shooting preparation for the archery season here beginning October. Although I use a compound bow traditional shooting has always interested me.
