Terrific photo again Linus. Glad I got a few Charlows on this most recent run, I think my better half is tightening the reigns on my extra curricular spending. May even have to pare with some, but I think some moderns will go before my TC Barlows.

Thanks Landon. Well you know where to find me if the sheep need a new home :D
I've also eased off on the buying. The charlows and that #85EO just about quelled my hunger. Now it's a single sheep or spey TC or nothing.

Jack - very nice photo today.

I couldn't resist carrying my "Primble-Cat" today.

Nice-looking knife Linus :thumbup:

I'm carrying a Trevor Ablett Sheepsfoot for Yorkshire Day :)

 
Happy Yorkshire Day Jack! I love that shuttle in the pic of that sweet Trevor Ablett Barlow :thumbup:

Thanks guys, I certainly feel like I hit the lottery with that one!

SAK Cadet for me today.
 
I don't carry this one much but decided to pocket it today. Don Morrow made this for me a few years ago. Nice WT with some of his excellent filework.

Had my RJ in the pocket today, I know, not very Yorkshire....but I've also just collected a parcel and I expect I won't be remedying that today....or for a good few.

Papa Andi's parcel has arrived.
His previously gifted; Case Peanut, work manly Webermesser and beautiful Hartkopf lockback, shall be assisting in the delicate operation of parcel peeling!



I have a feeling what's in store is going to warrant more than the iPhone's camera is capable of honoring.

Ps. Probably the best bottle opener in the world right there, helping me celebrate Yorkshire day with one of our finer ales.
Thanks to mr_badexample :thumbup:
 
I´m really glad you got the parcel - at least this time it was good and arrived. The other one was lost during shipping, very annoying. I hope you like its content, my friend :)

The #71 Micarta Bullnose was with me today. :)



Thanks Trevor :)

Wow, Great photo and stunning knife

I really am finding that the one arm suits my uses more than any other blade shape right now.

Old & In The Way said:
xceptnl - lovely scales with lots of character.

That lighter Ebony causes me to stop and stare every time I pull it from my pocket. Thanks for the compliments.
 
The one on the bottom:


I know there's not a lot of fondness for Kershaws among traditionalists, but I love the Kai-built knives, and the Black Gulch in the photo is a lot of knife for an EDC that's light & thin & fits comfortably I'm my jeans pocket (as much blade as a Buck 112 in a smaller, lighter package.)

I've taken to carrying a second knife in my watch pocket. Today it's a Kai-built 3120 (about 1 5/8" blade.). Doesn't freak-out my yuppie co-workers as much:-)

I LOVE traditional, single-blade l lock backs. Nice & thin & light. If I ever decide I need something to supplement a clipped or drop point, I'll just find another SBLB with what I need for another pocket:-)

Correction: my watch pocket knife is a Squaw Creek 2150:




Wife wonders pair of shoes to wear In the morning, I wonder which pair of knives to carry. She says just because she buys me cargo shorts with a zillion pockets doesn't mean I need a knife for every one. I disagree:-)
