What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[black mamba]

Interesting that you noticed that, Eric. My stainless elk stag #48 has the most perfectly wonderful W&T of any knife I own. Snappy/springy describes it well.

Jeff, yah I really think it's just something about that design that makes the springs work for you and not against you.

BTW, beautiful cover on that one!

Great tradition and great Soddy!

It is a '70 model sodbuster it belonged to my grandfather. My earliest memory of him was him using this knife. It was the only thing I wanted when he passed a couple of years ago. I always find it befitting every year round this time to use the knife for sausage and cheese, because it was a tradition he started long before I was born.

Thanks, fellas, the action on the #48 reminds me of cocking a Colt Python . . .
buttery smooth with just the perfect amount of resistance, and then the click.

I wish all my photos could be so "blurry". I think they came out fine bud! That butter and molasses looks good enough to eat.
