What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Splendid stockman, Chris, with gorgeous bone! Is that a 47 or an 18 stockman model?
(You've GOT to admit that those round bolsters take it a step UP in class over square bolsters!)

This is the 47! I must admit, it's my favorite stockman by far. 😍 It's just "perfect", IMO. Size, bolsters, bone, steel, snap... Wouldn't change a thing!

For whatever reason (I can't make sense of it) in the smaller stockmans, I prefer the squared bolster 32s over the rounded 16s. 🤔 If I remember correctly, the clip blades were slightly different on the 16s which I didn't care for. Regardless, nothing beats the 47s. 😁
 
Some bronze and M390 today.

Still carry a Case knife occasionally, they might have some QC issues but the knife that got me into pocket knives was a Case, so I owe a lot of who I am today to that company in Bradford.
This is a recent Case Barlow that was grey and is now purple-ish thanks to some Rit-dye.
