What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

One of my favorites for Monday. A slim two-blade carry. The ebony looks much blacker in real life.
Have a good week!

I like your statement about fatherhood being a lifetime goal of yours🤙
The world needs more of that.

Don’t worry about losing sleep. Two of ours quickly got with the diurnal program right away.
Remember ~ baby wakes up hungry at 2:00 am, get up and bring him to Mom- go back to sleep👊
Baby wakes up with a loaded diaper, get up and being him to Mom. Well… good luck with that🤔

I wake up at 3 am for work anyway 😂 thank you for the blessings!

Where does the time go? These quotes are from last Tuesday and Wednesday, and here it is Monday before I comment on them.


Nice trio of RR blues! I've never seen one of those blue sawcut sowbellies before.


Thanks; the "crater" is quite memorable!


Notable pair sittin' in the sunshine, Steve!


Sorry to read about the Wagon Wheel Cafe cutbacks, ED.


Fine pair of animals, David! Are the covers on the Beaver Tail jigged wood?


Dynamic duo; I especially like the Diamond Edge scout knife!


Capable couple of knives! Good thinking, Zach: every new uncle should probably polish up his blowgun skills!


Massive score!! (In some of the softball leagues I used to play in, the game would be stopped by the "mercy rule" with a score that big.)


Hypnotic Horn, Jim!


Splendid old knife - useful blade and grand wood grain in the handle!


Those Catts got my tongue, Rob, especially the jigging on the top knife!


Faithful pair of work mates, Jeff!


Interesting photo and story, Jeff!


Good wood, Patrick!


😁 Chris, you gotta remember I'm talking about what could happen in "knife nuts hell" (KNH); there's no chance in KNH I'd get assigned a canoe there (or a sowbelly stockman). Under those conditions, I'd be pleased as punch to get "punished" with a Solo!


Couple of budget beauties!


Totally agree, Tyson! (Except my Opinel of choice would probably be a No. 7 rather than No. 8)


Superb pair, for sure!


That's another sensational sowbelly, ED; that shield looks great with the black curly maple!


Here's hoping that he heals soon enough NOT to set that record, Bob.


Wow, that rosewood is incandescent in the sunlight, Steve!


As they apparently used to say when I was very young, "I like Ike!"


Man, the combo of dark blade, copper bolsters, and stag handle is a visual treat!


I agree, Leon; the spey on big Case trappers is essentially a straight edge blade with just a "tiny tummy" out at the end.


I've never had an Opinel smaller than a No. 6; maybe I should try one of the smaller ones sometime. José, were you away for awhile, or have I just not noticed your posts for awhile?

Gary, I applaud your epic reply.👏
Thank you for your thoughts. My brother is becoming an old man before his time, but he is a fighter, so we shall see.

What a grand Farmer’s Jack🤙
 
It's a Bull Nose for a trip to town today. The Wagon Wheel Cafe is still hanging on by a thread so it's my duty to eat there as often as possible - a bit melodramatic I suppose but I've known the family and employees since 1989 - we're all a family. Coffee for breakfast.

Thanks Gary.👍
For me the no.6 is the ideal, (although it only has 5 e 7, were offered).:)
Yes I was out of holiday during August.;)
 
It’s funny, if you look at the front page there’s an article about, “Vanishing fog raises climate questions” well they should spend some time in my neighborhood! Keeping me company on this FOGGY morning a couple of micarta beauties. Have a great day folks! 😀
