That is very nice Todd.

I've been carrying an old pruning knife for a couple of months now. It's about 2-2.5 " in the blade, no makers marks anywhere that I can find. Presumably Sheffield in origin, since I picked it up here in the UK (I'm on contract here for a while) and it's stamped as such. But some stuff has been made elsewhere & stamped Sheffield. Anyway, it's a nice knife, I've come to really appreciate the hawk bill blade, and it fits nicely in the coin pocket of my jeans.
 
Call me fickle. This one called out to me this afternoon.
Case Sowbelly with CV blades.

No APOLOGY needed Ant;) Great ole Remington and I like your back ground. You know somethin though, that knife would go good in the pocket of an old Leather Jacket---say from the eighties;):D

Have a great weekend buddy:thumbup:

Thank you Paul, and I very much hope you do the same! And I got the joke partner - I had a good laugh!

Honestly, I think you are one of the most kind and positive men on bladeforums. I mean that 100%.

They're actually Bolivians! My father brought that carving back to me from Bolivia after he spent 4 years there working for Enron. (Yes, THAT Enron - yikes!)
 
I have been on a TL-29 modding kick this week. The one on the top is a Camillus where I replaced the scales with some almond wood from my very own tree, and reshaped the screwdriver blade into a locking whittle.

The bottom one is a Schrade Walden TL-29 with cocobolo scales. I like this one the best so far.
