What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

I am constantly switching between the two :). I throw in my F&F swayback from time to time as well(Thanks again Aaron, great work knife). I have gotten down to a core of users I really enjoy.

Nice one Jack! Great knife.

BTW, I've got a cork board like yours but how do you get those items to stay on there? I have to use pins for mine;)

Okay I'm sorry but this picture requires explanation. I see what appears to be snow on the ground, a wool mitten on the table and a grasshopper? Where I live this mix of items would probably be the sign of the apocalypse. Not the snow mind you (I live in MN for crying out loud), but the grasshopper with the snow. Sorry, I just had to ask.

Maybe it's a glass grasshopper, or some kind of a realistic sculpture of a grasshopper. Or perhaps it is an indoor pet, and that is a window with snow on the outside. It does seem odd with the snow in the background.

LOL I love that it is a rug! New Englanders will automatically assume it's snow. Very cool insect, and nice knife too! :thumbup:

Mark, Your photo composition skills are masterful. I have enjoyed all of your tiny knife pics this week.

Thanks! I've been a shutterbug for a while, but never did much of this sort of macro photography before getting back into knives. I'm learning a lot.

Actually, I've got one of those. (I've got a weakness for the oddballs.) They do look kinda similar, but this one uses a mechanism I've only heard called "funny folder" where the loops of the handle kind of rotate around each other to expose or cover the blade.

No markings on it other than the advertising stamping. Very inconsiderate to the collector, don't you think? :D
