Yep... we share similar tastes for sure! Did you shape that handle yourself? Looks comfortable.

We sure do! :) :thumbup: The handle is just the way it came to me - shaping handles would be an "advanced" knife owner's module…I'm just getting started ;)
 
Jack – That Arthur Wright Lambsfoot in ebony is simply beautiful. I really appreciate it even more now that I know it was from ‘The Famous Sheffield Shop’ and is not a regular production model.
Bladesandbrews – Welcome, nice knife and sheath.
Ron – Your 2 "TESTED XX RAZOR EDGE" knives and pictures are very nice.
Link2derek - That L.T. Wright Patriot is amazin
David – That “Real Sheepsfoot Barlow” is on my wish list, super nice.
SAK Guy – Your knives and photos are always great, thanks :thumbup:
Arizonaranchman – that 33 really is a gracious gift, I wish I would have bought one when I had a chance.
Stephen – speaking of ebony, that GEC 22 looks great in it with that bar shield
Whetstone39 – way to keep the ebony knives going, nice photo too.
Humppa – Your 73 goes perfect with that pocket watch. Nice pair !
Gevonovich – I always admire your old knives and great photos
Kai76 – I like it a lot too!!!
Kris – You have great taste in knives
Scott – Gets the job done in style

Sorry if I forgot you, too many nice knives here.
Carrying these (except the key, I upgraded recently)
 
I had these 2 "TESTED XX RAZOR EDGE" today:thumbup::)

Ron, those are a couple of fine-looking Cases! :thumbup::thumbup:
What models are they? I'm not very experienced with knives, but I don't think I've ever seen one like the top one. Is that a penknife with 2 pen blades, both "secondaries"?? :confused::o:confused: I like it, whatever it is!!:p

Thank you Dave!! Nice pair today! I think I have a Schrade like that somewhere...cool little knives!

Dave - Thanks for the compliment:)

GT - Thanks for the compliment. The top knife is a Case 06263 and the bottom knife is a Case 6347.
These knives are both in Case Stainless Steel, thus the "TESTED XX RAZOR EDGE" etching on the master blade.
The 6347 had that etching in 1972 when it was made, it has long since faded with use.
The smaller pattern is nicknamed the Eisenhower. Here is a shot that shows both blades better:)

Thanks SAK Guy :D, haha, I would have guessed as much with all the functional EDC knives you own. I bet your collection was really big before the fire, I was so sorry to hear about that incident. Luckily your friend returned some of the ones you gifted him (if I remember correctly) :confused:. :thumbup:

Thanks Dave! Yes, friends and family were very gracious help to restart my collection. I'm truly blessed to have had such people in my life...not unlike the generous folks that populate this forum! :thumbup:
 
Today it'll be a gently abused smooth as silk 110 that locks up tighter than Dick's hatband ... surprisingly
It's been in the rotation since 1988. The Lansky kit is about 10 or so years older than that
Used as a hammer, bade tip been heated WAY more than it should have been, initials carved so it wouldn't walk off at work
... oh, and stuff has been cut with it. Think I'll keep it

Great-looking pair Kris :thumbup:

Thanks a lot Dave :)

The Old Timer is a real cool knife, Dave. Looks very handy! Great picture and very cool old key:D

+1 :thumbup:


Very nice :)

These two for me today. Have a good day everyone :thumbup:

Thanks for the follow-up, Ron. Great photo showing that there IS a difference in the blade sizes on that Eisenhower. :thumbup::thumbup:
I'd heard of the Eisenhower pattern, but I must have been too distracted (lazy? :o) to look it up!

Andi,

I blame you and that beautiful 66 Jack.....because I have a purple sage 66 Jack that will be arriving on Thursday.

Jim

Well, if my wife asks I blame Andi, Brisket and Peter......

Just a few cell phone pics. But an awesome knife. The mark side is missing some of the dark burnt coloring in a few of the jiggings but still looks great. The pile side is just about as perfect as I've ever seen. The joints also need a little oil....all in all very happy.

This little guy will be in my pocket for a couple of days.
