My first Custom Slipjoint was a Ray Cover, I love the quality of his work and it was a great entry level Custom folder.

I EDC this baby evryday, it sits in a little pouch I keep my DL, CCW permit & CCs in.

I'm carrrying the peanut that I won in Vince's give away awhile back. It's neat to have a small knife like that in your pocket to do some "spur of the moment" cutting task. I trimmed up some dead branches out of one of my sick azelea bushes this afternoon. It is sick because we went into drought conditions in July, August, and September and a well went out on the community water system which put us on a no-watering ban. Those azeleas took a beating, but out of 13 plants only 3 are beyond hope. As soon as they started getting some water, they began to put out new growth. It is amazing how resilient life can be and how fragile all at the same time. Sorry for the rambling. - Ed
 
I think this one will fit the bill today...

My first time ever carrying a traditional knife. Found this old Camillus Deluxe Stockman 83 in my dad's desk drawer. After I "appropriated" it, I spent an hour with some soap, water, Flintz, and a Sharpmaker, and it's good to go!!

Hangin' around the house today, doing laundry, and decided to fondle this 2nd generation Bulldog trapper.

3-7/8" closed, long rounded bolster (ala peanut), match-strike pulls, gorgeous 3-dimensional pearl handles and perfect snap/action.

Doing laundry shouldn't be this much fun! :p
 
That's not a traditional knife Elliot.........that is THE traditional knife:)

Thanks, Steven. It may have to fight for supremacy against its sibling for that honor, however...

I'd be hard put to decide and glad I don't have to choose. :D
