What model is the buck? Thanks

Nice maters, blades and guitar.

Not really toting this today, but I thought I would share. This one is a real special one for me, a few years ago while visiting my mom, I had to go out in the storage building and look for something and saw my dad's old toolbox out there. My dad passed away 12 years ago. While digging around in the tool box I came across this Imperial Kamp King, but it was in rough shape, the cellulose film was all crumbling on the handles, rusted, etc. I decided I would clean it up and hold on to it because it belonged to my dad. I was heartbroken when trying to put one of the scales back on the little tab that hold it to the liner snapped off. I was bummed about it and just set it aside. Last week I thought about it again and found a broken scale donor knife for cheap on ebay, so I was finally able to get it back together. I kind of want to carry and use it but at the same time want to just keep it for the memories

Wonderful knife. Tough call on carrying and using. Maybe special occasions would be a good time

Rough Ryder weekend continues. Carrying a Razor Barlow and a Stockman in colors I wouldn’t normally be drawn to, but these are kinda fun!!

Found this old Camillus whitetail at an antique shop today. And for a great deal.

I had posted this in Let’s talk GEC but intended to post in this thread, so here it is. I’m still getting used to these electric computer machines. Thanks for your patience.

Hi Rick. This is a Buck 117 Brahma, black phenolic handle with 420HC blade steel.

New Edition ... no not the boy band. New edition to my pocket is this super duper old school design by A. Wright Sheffield. The knife is tight and well made as one would expect from this cutlery. Bit of a nail breaker 7-8 pull , a little rough on thin finger nails ... but no gaps or cracks. Happy as a clam.. TGIF to all
( the GEC is for scale #14 )

Lol I totally missed the guitar with all the other things going on lol.

'Mater talk. I tried Cherokee purple a long with black krims which were similar. Both were I think not acidic enough for our taste, very smooth. Kind of didn't taste like a tomato if that makes sense. I could see why people love them. Mr stripey has been a favorite along with rainbow cherry but it's been a rough year for maters here.

Today, I carried this 'mater again after seeing Primble post his yesterday I knew it wanted some attention. Along with a cantelope from the garden.

Cheers ..

Thank you, my friend!

Happiness is finding a knife that has been lost for several months. The Robeson somehow ended up in the bottom of my Ulster tray.

It’s my spinal tap knife. The pull on the secondary goes to 11!

It’s funny you say that. I carried mine yesterday and couldn’t get the secondary opened.

Hope all were uninjured....animals and people.
Two stalwart carries Bart.

Thanks for beef clarification.

Fine pair of knives Bart

Thanks guys. No animals hurt and I assume no people. The car was gone and I didn’t see car parts everywhere, so I assume it wasn’t too bad.

It was on NBC News Chico, CA this morning that a herd of cattle had escaped their pasture during the night and that a truck had plowed into them killing some and crippling some.

Never a good situation for either side. Fortunately none of our cattle got out.

Thanks for the clarification my friend. Sorry about the unexpected work today.

My favorite mug too ................ yeah, I copycatted you.

I’ve gotten pretty used to the unexpected work after a while, it’s just part of the deal.

Just means you’ve got good taste in mugs

These two spanish beauties. The kitchen kni⁸fe has a 200 mm blade and is very sturdy, it has almost a meditarranean bowie - feel. Carbon steel.

The horn handle friction folder has a 90 mm blade, inox I presume. The picture does not give the knife justice, it is beautifull. Both had a good edge, easy to fine tune.

Simple, affordable, traditional kitchen tool that just works, my best kitchen knife so far.
