What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[SteveC]

Nice Cattaraugus! Does it have that ringing snap?

Unfortunately not, but not terrible. My clip blade model does on the main blade but the pen is lazy

This was enough by itself to get me through church yesterday:

But maybe this one today:

But maybe this one today:

I am trying my hardest, but cannot think of a valid reason not to.

Heard a good sermon yesterday on Luke 13:11-16. Perfect illustration that Form Must Follow Function. As long as doing the right thing, and doing it well come first, Form, ie: Beauty will follow along.
Perfect metaphor for the Big Jack.

Another metaphor for the 23 is Beauty Is As Beauty Does

I do realize that most of my Porch friends are more likely to go by Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...or lack of beauty

No heat, no humidity!!! Fall is close.
This takes quite an edge.

I'll be tote'n this Harness Jack 10 and a Moore Maker whittler today.

Lost a hackberry tree in last weeks storm. Really a shame since it was a great shade tree at the back fence and provided privacy from view of neighbors house. We've lost 5 mature trees and planted 6 since moving here 25 years ago.
I did manage to salvage the trunk for good use. Spent yesterday morning splitting it into to staves for making some self bows. Hackberry is a decent bow wood but splitting 6' lengths with a sledge and wedge's is not a lot of fun for an old guy.

That IS a lot of work. Do you paint the ends and let them dry?

How was your Trad Archery Shoot the other day?

SAK (or at least Victorinox) of the Week is a folding paring knife (a Top Ten Victorinox choice for me). As the photo shows, it's a long knife, but it's almost as light as a feather.

Stockman of the Week is a Schrade USA 34OT (thanks, Dave):

- GT

How did you get a newer 112 without a nail nick? Looks great.

Sunny right now but suppose to rain this afternoon - rained like a banshee with thunder and lightning yesterday. "Abby" the Hoarder was not pleased with the thunder. Jimmy Dean Hot Sausage and biscuits for breakfast. This old Imperial Easy Open Jack in a pocket today.
