What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Ironbut]

Sleet & freezing rain predicted to start around noon & last until midnight, with maybe a half inch ice accumulation. It sounds like a good day to stay home. The wood stove's going, we have enough leftovers & cookies to last about a week, and the backup generator's ready. I think we're GTG.

Excellent selections.
A very nice key wind watch you have there.
Do you know the year the watch was made?
I'm guessing 1860's to 1880's.

My key wind (1885 Elgin H.H. Taylor) needs work.
I think it had a wrong replacement hair spring (too short) installed sometime in its history, (it runs 5 minutes fast per day.) when new it was rated at +/-5 minutes a week.) and the main spring may have taken a set, since it only runs around 22 hours per wind instead of 36+ hours.

Thank you. It was made in 1886, and still runs like a champ. With the regulator maxed out, she's about 2 minutes slow after 24 hours.

Custom fishing lure Opinels, I carved the handle and painted them for my son. He goes fishing a lot so he will use the SS one for that. He loved them. Merry Christmas everyone!

It's very comfortable to hold, I got the idea from BF but I don't remember who did it.

These are awesome! Well done. Just fantastic.

I am only carrying the open French blade there and the SAK today. I was organizing my new Christmas gift knife box when choosing today’s carry, and apparently I have way more wood handle knives than I thought. It makes sense being a carpenters son I guess.

It makes sense being a carpenters son I guess.

That’s fitting for Christmas.
