What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Traveled up to Vermont this week, we're close by Canadas border! This is the farthest the Mrs & me have traveled for vacation. Its over 1,000 miles from where we live.
I didn't carry anything Monday due to TSA stinginess... So I picked up this Sodbuster Jr at a local hardware store here in town where we're staying.

P.S. To our northern friends on the porch, We had poutine for the first time here. Definitely an odd dish for us, but it's actually pretty good 😂


Have a good one y'all!

The morning's duds, just shed, as I'm about to be wearing drywall mud. At least I looked respectable until noon? The yellow diamond ring was inherited from great Grandpa, I wouldn't have bought myself that (I would buy like 30 knives instead).
There’s nothing wrong with that plaid shirt. Not too sure about that pink undergarment, though.😁
I like the connection to G. G. with the ring, but aren’t you afraid of losing it on that flimsy little chain?

Yeah, one time I found myself in Florida facing a week with no pocket knife and no guitar. So we did a search of pawnshops in Ft. Myers, and my father in law drove me around. Second place yielded up a Chinese Squier Stratocaster for $99. Haggled down to $90 including tax. Then I found a plastic handled Victorinox paring knife for a dollar. I wanted it because I planned on fishing around the bridge going to Sanibel Island. I used cereal box cardboard and duct tape to make a pocket sheath. Put a shaving edge on it using the bottom of a china coffee mug, but never caught any fish to use it on. They had something going on that had caused a big fish kill.
The in laws brought both the guitar and knife back home for me in their car.
 
Case Knife of the Week is a Case CV chestnut jigged bone sowbelly stockman (a surprise Christmas gift from Half/Stop Half/Stop , who later passed away):


Colonial/Imperial/Schrade Knife of the Week is an oriental Schrade 11OT canoe:

Phew, a CV Sowbelly in red bone is an absolute favorite of mine. I just need to find one 😂
Great looking knives!
 
"Utah" the Doxie is showing some improvement. She played with her ball for a few minutes last night before tiring. We're headed to town in a few to mail another package and then lunch at the Brass Rail Restaurant. I've got this Sowbelly pocketed.

Sowbellys fit my hand perfectly
