Special occasion calls for special carry. I had the Pearl Case & my late grandfathers Imperial Barlow with me. He's there in spirit. Forgive the bad lighting...

I am glad you pronounce Boker the same as me.Boker .. is that how you say it
The Castle Wood Barlow is such a great knife and love the history especially with the covers made out of that old castle they are renovating!!
Love mine I think it’s #112 of 1133 made
Its hard to capture the texture on the covers its not totaly amooth and has character.

I feel like I ask every time you post a photo but who is the maker? That’s another beautiful piece.

It's always a pleasure to answer you
I have just notices that there is no specific thread to show the creations of my great friend Gigi Sechi from Sardinia ( Italy ).
Gigi like traditional shapes but more he loves making damascus.

That reminds me! I have to smooth the sharp nubs off my thumb stick. (If the wild animals get too close to whack with the stick, I can poke their eyes like the Three Stooges.)In the forest during weekend. I have reached the age when I prefer to have some kind of walking stick when I'm trekking.

I think I am going to have nightmares about that lamb that you posted
AI is really getting imaginative
It is the "Leading Edge" system designed by our own BF sharpening guru @777 Edge
I started a thread a few years back about its assembly and use
Hi everyone
I've just finished building my "Leading Edge" 3D printed knife guided sharpening system designed by our friend @777 Edge
The files for printing can be downloaded for free from Thingiverse at:
Knife, Scissors, Chisel & Razor Sharpener - Leading Edge System by leadingedge
This is my "Leading Edge" Sharpening System.NOTE - The LATEST (Major upgraded) version of my system will soon be available as a ready-to-assemble kit from https://www.gritomatic.com. I will not be updating this version on Thingiverse any more, but I will leave it here for free printing.NOTE -...www.thingiverse.com
Loving it !
In the YouTube video description posted above you'll find links for some of the parts used such as the brass threaded inserts, magnets and steel rods.
I will post more later on with pics of the...
For the more simple carbon and SS steels of our traditional knives I have been having amazing results with the PSA backed 3M aluminum oxide films.
I made my own lapping plates using glass glued to aluminum flat stock.
The optional metal clamps are called "KakBritva" and are available from the Gritomatic store. They are great to hold the smaller blades of our traditionals.
edit: I lubricate ( and also clean ) the film often using mineral oil to extend its life and remove steel residue
