Thanks my friend, I did go a bit crazy...then suddenly my wallet was empty!

The Elliott carving set is very special (I'll get better pics at some point), but I'm not sure why I bought it, I just couldn't resist the attraction of the sharp and pointy!

What's the ebony handled jack with the grooved bolsters, Jack? Lovely haul! I'd love to poke around in your house some day. Although, I suppose one must be careful. There's a lot in there to poke back!

Today's carry:

15 Crownlifter in Ebony and a 85 in goldenrod micarta.

 

[Simple Man]

Rather a miserable morning here, but I'm off out for a walk anyway. Got these two with me

Is that Rich Herder ya posted a bit back? I got this one in some time ago and had not seen any others. For a Scout, it makes a nice compact carry.

Thanks Dan! :thumbup: You're always welcome my friend Two lovely knives you're carrying today :thumbup:

That one went over in my pocket, I don't think I've ever found anything quite THAT nice

I'm going to visit ADEE today, so have a few old knives with me. In my pocket though is a knife I really treasure, a very special old Boker Jack sent to me by Mr Paul Hilborn

It's an old Carl Schlieper :thumbup: Just three blades on mine, and it's not so small, but a great knife to have in your pocket. Nice Scout :thumup:

Here it is next to a Radio Jack for reference. And with everything out! :thumbup:

Yup, yours is in much better condition and quality than mine, but they sure look to be cousins. Thx

It was a present from Duncan Campbellclanman. I have a Kaufman that looks quite similar to yours, but without the nice bail. Here's something else to ponder :thumbup:

Amundsen's knife, a Pradel - It's in a museum in Canterbury England, not in my sock-drawer by the way! I do have a similar knife, but it may be a fake Pradel, of which there are apparently many.

NICE, haul there Jack!!! Tins, Knives and a Silver case? compass:thumbup:

Thanks guys Yes Paul, I am very pleased with the pocket compass, just researching it now :thumbup:

Sorry Paul, I misread your post. The compass is nickel silver over brass. Francis Barker & Son, 1920 or possibly older. Serial number corresponds to the year of my birth

Very similar to this one: http://www.borealarrow.com/Compasses/BA140512529/d.htm

Finally out for Thanksgiving break. Probably didn't do great in the quiz on this subject yesterday.

Hello!

Wonderful pieces again, everyone!

I had my newly arrived made-to-measure custom Navaja slipjoint by J.D.Ware with me for the first time. I can not say enough good things about Jeff and this piece! It just feels a looks "right" to me (can't explain it better).

These are the very first images I just snapped at home an hour ago, nothing to do the knife any justice (the gold behind the semi-translucent bulls horn gives it a great warm glow that does not come accross at all in the images).

Best regards,
Alex
