Fantastic stag on your Thiers Gary!

thats your photo too. fwiw, Photobucket recently changed their image link to include a link to your whole photobucket library. To prevent that, I copy the direct link instead, and add the img tags to it. You can quote my message to see the syntax, if you want control of which images youre showing. I thoroughly enjoy looking at your Library though :-)

And, a pic of mine in every post. This Remington was made during the US Alcohol Prohibition Era (1920-1933) that led to the Great Depression (1929-1941), which ended with the US entering WW2. After which there was no more Alcohol Prohibition, and no more Depression, maybe.

Nice Remington there Jon! and thanks for that tip, I've been in a French mood lately, not sure why I think it's the curves that get me, really like the way they put these together and they don't really break the bank either, as I'm pretty much out of the true 'Custom' knife, those things have sky rocketed in price it's insane!

The stag on these swells out to the end nicely provides a great grip too and the grind on the blade is nice, although they don't arrive impressively sharp, but what does these days besides maybe some none traditionals like Spyderco, but, I for one do not mind, as then I can set the bevel that I need to maintain anyways, it lets me control that portion and the 13c26 Swedish razor steel gets tree topping sharp, I've 4 of their Thiers knives and all have exceptional edges!

I'll get some better photos later as I get time, just got it so I wanted to share right away, taken quickly last night ;)

First day with my Rick Nowland two-blade Trapper:

It already did some duty cutting up pizza at a birthday party :)
 
I've started carrying this Schrade Fire & Ice by GEC in my Buck 501 belt sheath so I'll be carrying it most days with something else in a pocket.

Just got this Queen swing guard in and finally finished making the edge usable. I wasn't sure I'd like the guard, but along with just being a fun and warm knife, the nub from the pin acts almost like a thumbstud if you catch your nail just right. This one is definitely going to be seeing some real pocket time.

Dan,
Everytime I see your Wiseman, I gotta do a double take. Very nice!
 
This one arrived today and went right in the pocket, after sharpening and photos. See the write-up in a new thread.

Thanks for the kind words, Todd.:cool: It's my go to knife when I'm in a lightweight mood. I love how slim and light it is while still being large enough for a full grip. Since it's in my pocket again today, I'll post an older pic from when it was new.
 
Im gonna take a risk tomorrow and carry this Boker tree brand..... Opinels and Boker USA, i've really been slumming it lately.... ;)
