Another beautiful day here in the City by the Bay! Heading out later to go with my bride for her doctors appointments and then to my dentist to get my new partial fitted better. The partial is replacing my six molars on the bottom. Problem is it doesn’t stay in place when I try to eat and for almost 10k including the oral surgery my doc needs to get it fixed! Keeping me company the Harvey Special and SAK Executive. Have a great day folks! 😀

As best as I can date it, this fella is at least twice my age…

I have one of its sisters ... or brothers?
"Late" no date 4 line tang stamp is "1930's to 1945" from what I learned trying to date mine.
The 33 Easy Open is a great knife.
(it was also one of two WW2 US Navy and Coast Guard knives. No way I know of to determine if one WAS an issue knife, though.)

I have mine in my pocket this month. 😁👍

"Small" and/or "insignificant" change to my carry today.
The 4 Pin 7OT, the 8OT, and Robeson 622110 are taking a rest.
My 392122 BF Bunny Knife (Number 291) is joining the ("late" 4 line) Camillus 33 EO in my pocket.
A C&C 5160 and "Oak" SFO Buck 110 is standing in for the 7OT.

I will probably go back to carrying the 7OT/8OT and Robeson (with the 33 EO) next week.

Looks great F.C.! I hope your aversion to clip blades doesn't stop you from enjoying this one. It's a great pattern and I know you like ESPL. Glad I could help. 😁
Thanks Patrick. I've been honestly working on my prejudice, and you've helped. I've narrowed it down specifically to an aversion to a curve on the clipped portion of the spine. This knife avoids that and sports a ton of blade length for it's low pocket weight. The secondary's great as well, that's a favorite shield of mine, and as you mention paper micarta is my jam. Already sharpened with a patina going, great minds knife alike ;)
This picture is dedicated to the principle of participation over photography excellence.
Hey at least the knife and photographer are excellent. We're glad you're here and not still living in the back of a van in the woods Jon, even if you're not. 🤣

Perhaps the most practical pair I could put together for Tidi Tuesday. Make a great one folks!

Homerun with those FC.👍🏻
 
Busy, busy, busy... Woke up @ 3:30 am this morning to go in for an early shift, off now & working on house upgrades for the Mrs. I'm taking up some bushes to make room for a flower bed by our walkway. In the a/c right now cooling down, it's hot & muggy out. Summer is moving in quick... anyway...
I got the ez open modded Trapper with me today. Its green Micarta but depending on the light it looks brown, y'all can decide for yourselves! 🤣

Lamb 🐑 Trapper 🦝 and a Cowboy Toothpick 🤠

Maybe you should've saved those for wooden Wednesday 🤣 The wood matches well btw. I particularly like that toothpick 😉
2 with me on my bike ride today. It ended up raining on me, it feels good to be home in dry clothes.

That Le Sabot looks like the French version of a SAK. I really like that model, it looks super useful 👍
Ketchup & mustard theme? 🤔
I really like that eureka jack, it looks like a great combo with the slim dog 👍
I seen you've gone with the tomato & onion today 🤣 Those are two great looking slicers!



Edit to add: Idk why I'm thinking in food terms so much... 🤔🤣
