What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

OK - the mail has come and I have changed up my carry for the day.
My newly arrived old Ulster - pretty bone - model 3558:

The blades have a lot of scratches on them, but, not so deep and it has been cleaned with a buffer.

There is a faint TRADE Ulster etching visible on the main blade - I enhanced it - it is really faint to the naked eye.

What I need to decide is if I will leave it as found OR do what I do so often and try to take it back towards old.

I was thinking my normal light Primble rubbing to satin it all down or maybe more and try to rub out all the scratches.

If I go to the more aggressive rubbing, the etch will most likely be lost.

Due to a very cloudy day today, the blades do not look so shiny, but, are shiny.

I would be interested in constructive comments and I thank you. :)

Lots of wonderful knives today everyone - I will be back to comment later. :thumbup::)
 
I wont lie, just felt a really strong urge to throw the 85 in my pocket while at lunch so:



I also got this guy with me today



So much for downsizing my edc load huh?? :/

Carrying a new to me Charlow. Awesome knife, but I still on the fence whether to keep it or release it back into the wild. I'll give it a few more days.

WOW - I would keep that one if I were you!! A very beautiful TC Barlow! :thumbup::eek::)
 
Hey, wait a minute. I want to see the blades on that Case XX. And you're killing me with the IXL. Great pics again.

And to answer your earlier question, no, Riley has not given me "Use of Knife Privileges" yet with her tiny toothpick. I can carry and return to the knife box, but not use. Maybe one day. A girl can dream! :)

Thank you Jennifer - I will try to find a blades open pic - very nice find on the DE Barlow. :thumbup::)

Picked up another Canoe while I wait to get the other fixed. It's hanging out with the red nut.

Another dye job Woodrow?? - Looking good! :thumbup::)

I'm carrying this one today. Stepped in an anthill whilst taking this photo. :eek:

Beautiful TC Barlow picture and glad to see you liked the IXL. :thumbup::)

It is definitely football weather in Michigan today....kinda chilly up here.

Two very nice knives there Mark. :thumbup:

Love that IXL Primble :thumbup:

Thank you Jack - much appreciated !!

Primble... I love the look of that blade.

Here is a trio of traditional knives for me today. Can you tell what my favorite blade shape is?

Thank you Todd and a super nice lineup there - except for the all chewed up by a mouse TC Barlow, which you need to mail to me. ;):D:thumbup:
