What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[dan1876]

I love Makesharp's scout. I'll have to start watching the exchange for one.

Carrying my autumn gold bone SF today. Much easier to open compared to the tan clip.

[JB in SC]

Kris, that is one very attractive swayback

 

[Sonnemann]

I wondered who got that beautiful piece. Why am I not surprised? That is stag to die for.

 

[kai76]

I almost snagged that one! It's a beauty, ridiculous stag. Congrats!

 

[link2derek]

Wow - gorgeous knife, Smithhammer!

Kinda misty out at the lake today - brought the Nomad along:

 

[puukkoman]

Kris - Holy cow, that Lloyd is out of this world! Looks like you stepped into a time machine, to go find that one in 1800s London. :thumbup:
link2derek - Really like that one. Nomad, you say? I hadn't seen that one yet (guess I haven't been keeping up with BRKT's new releases in quite some time). Nice lines, very classy. Is it convex ground? Looks like a great slicer, yet still very strong. Making me want one! :thumbup:

 

[josha840]

One of the best ones I've seen!

 

[Todd Isa 53]

Ok... what a great day to carry a knife. Traded in what I was carrying for these at lunch after checking the mail!!!!
Blessed.

 

[Jack Black]

Thanks Todd . its made by A weight & son of Sheffield . and it has a lambsfoot blade in 01 .

That's Arthur Wright & Son :thumbup:

You have amassed quite the collection, my friend. It the alphabet thread...I'm seeing some for the first time.

The old Eastern does have one snapped blade ...but I really like the old gal

That's just a small part of it my friend, I need to have a clear-out! :thumbup:

Sorry to hear about the snapped blade, but still a great knife my friend

That was a great post Paul! :thumbup:

Yes it was :thumbup:

Kris, that is one very attractive swayback

+1 :thumbup: Nice Snap-on set too

It's more fully called the Nomad Hunter, and it is a fairly new model. Here are the specs:

Overall length:7.9 Inches
Blade Length:3.775 Inches
Blade Steel: A-2 @ 58-60rc
Blade Thickness: .187 Inch
Weight: 4.125 Ounces

Very cool knife - notice, though, that it uses got a very thick (about 5mm) blade stock. I'd prefer something closer to 1/8 inch (3-3.5mm) for better slicing and food prep. Other than that, it's a sweet little knife. Derrick at KnivesShipFree (an excellent BF dealer) has 'em in stock if you wanna check 'em out.

 

[Humppa]

This great great Gerlach, Poland was with me today - thanks once more Jack

 

[link2derek]

Absolutely beautiful image, Erik! I've been staring at it for longer than I should admit... it's one of those knife pictures that necessitates an immediate purchase of said knife.

 

[Will Power]

Ebony, 4"/10cm shut. Sandvik and all stainless liners. Sobering snap indeed

 

[Dr. Scott]

Well the hype is still in full flow and 15's are still top of the pecking order here in the trad forum at the minute.

I had two - a single sheepfoot TC which I sold to someone who really wanted it, and a Diamond jack which I gave away because I really didn't like the spear blade; and I haven't been sold on the boy's knife pattern I must admit.

After the birth of my son I decided to get another and give it another try:



... but why I hear you ask?...

... because of this:



here in the UK a six digit date goes Day Month Year. This was the day Rory was born.

So I'll carry this today and see whether or not we get on, if we don't I'll save it for Rory but if we do I'll have to source another for him.

3rd time's a charm!:thumbup:

 

[sitflyer]

Will, I love the shield on your Le Garonnais. Very nice looking knife :thumbup:

Goin with my African Blackwood Clip and Orange Alox

Paul - Looking good with Black and Orange today :thumbup:

An old Eastern today

Gev - That is a graceful beauty you have today :thumbup:

combatjiujitsu - Man that is what is known as a "Cold Case"

After the birth of my son I decided to get another and give it another try:

... but why I hear you ask?...

... because of this:



here in the UK a six digit date goes Day Month Year. This was the day Rory was born.

Paul - That is a great story, congratulations again on the birth of your son, Rory :thumbup:

coolio - What's not to love with Walnut Sheepfoot TC :thumbup:

My 66 Cocobolo is my pocket today.

Brett - That is some beautiful wood today :thumbup:

The Lambsfoot stayed in my pocket, but I decided to pair it with a Norfolk today. A bit of ebony & ivory.

Stephen - They make a great looking pair :thumbup:

Kris - That Lloyd is a stunner, beautiful Stag :thumbup:

Ok... what a great day to carry a knife. Blessed.

Todd - That is a great pair to carry together, they compliment one another :thumbup:

Today I have been checking out this Old Tan Sheepfoot around the house. Watching it snow here in SE Tennessee

 

[Dr. Scott]

I'm still a little stunned at Paul admitting he hasn't cared for the #15. And sold his only TC Barlow! A single sheepfoot! This is almost like saying you don't care for GEC knives. The next thing you know, Paul will admit that he puts a pocket clip on his WLST! Oh, well. More 15s for me!

I almost always have a 15 in one pocket. But in my other pocket today:

That's just a small part of it my friend, I need to have a clear-out! :thumbup:

You're clearing out some knives? Well, anything I can do to help you make room for new acquisitions.


Speaking of, here's my newest. A new knife, but an old design:
