I believe I was with you when you bought those two old blonde Barlows. Am I right?
As I remember, they feel silky smooth like old friends.

Sorry Jeff , but you were not . I bought one in Broadhead , Wi. and the other off of the bay .
You were with me though when I bought the 2 Colonials , which were in a presentation box . You even remarked on how heavy they were . I wonder if they were made by their Old Cutler division . They are some well made knives .

Definitely a good read. Also, a jackknife plays a major role in an incident described in the book.

Yes, I just read the jackknife incident. Not to make light of the story but I think the moral is "Don't steal someone's jackknife".

I think this is the incident you're referring to, Gary. I wonder what kind of jackknife it was......

Glad to hear Bart. This is an earlier creation. It has very good fit and finish. I cannot speak for the newer models.

Sounds like it might be worth checking them out.

Well friends this was my first time taking a GEC along for a vacation and I’m sure glad I was able to make some unforgettable memories adventuring through Hawaii with this knife at my side. Mahalo, Maui!

Great pictures. Looks like a fun trip I’m always scared to send a nice knife through checked luggage.

Got a GECC 39 and stag 93 today.

Awesome stag on the one, Paul!

Hope you feel better soon, Bart. I suppose you can take some solace that you were able to avoid the plague for over 4 years, and that Swayback Jack should make any traditional fan feel better.

Thanks Gary. I was starting to think I was immune but no such luck.

What a beauty! I’d say your day is off to a good start if you have that in the pocket

These two knives have been made by a master cutler. They are of course one of a kind. They were specifically ordered by me.
They are made from high quality materials as horse hoof and modern steel. And they cost less than two industrial knives from certain brands....

J-M very nice designs. The materials and designs are spot on.

Obviously, I meant to say that was sunRISE this morning.

An Egg-cellent knife


Mods please don’t ban me, I couldn’t help it.

I need to get to the farm today. The knives I haven't shown them are piling up.
The big one is a Juca. Then; Jarvenpaa, K. Lammi, and M. Nieto.

It's going to be a hot, damp, day, perfect for my Johnny-the-fox Iberian friction folder. But it might not be too hot to bring along the AGR sowbelly trapper.

Thanks Gary !

I'll make my weekly Costco run today then pick up my grandsons at a day camp, where today is "Mud Day". Oh great!
I'm going to pocket my Lake-CAS Iberia collaboration. At least for the morning.
Have a good one!
