Also, I got a call from my dad the other day saying he had something I may be interested in. Long story short, he did some work for a coworker, my dad was going to do it for free just to help out. Then his coworker gave him this custom fillet knife as a thank you.
Well my dad just gifted it to me 🤯
I believe he said the handle was spalted maple. (Made by R. L. Davis)

Hope y'all are having a great & restful Sunday!
 
Today I decided to carry my favorite knife. A single clip blade, 2014 GEC 77 in stag. A knife so beautiful and wonderfully made that every time I carry it I am reminded how thrilled and grateful I am to have one. (For those of you who have been around for a bit, you might remember it as the Forum's knife of 2014.)
While I was looking for it, I spotted this lionSTEEL Barlow. Recognizing that the Barlow can be pinched open and is noticeably lighter, the GEC 77 was passed over. So here I am carrying this fantastic Italian made folder and wondering, can a knife built with screw fasteners possibly edge out a traditional that I've cherished as my number one for so many years??? It did today!
