Great minds think alike. Here's my EDC for today. I carry a lot of different knives, but I always have my Dart around my neck.
The Dart from Evans Knife and Tool, and the Northfield 77 Barlow in Stag.

Glad to see the stag arrived safe and sound - enjoy! :)
 
Yesterday after finding my Northwoods Norfolk had slipped out of the pocket of my indoor fleece jacket again i exchanged it for a Rough Rider Peanut that i had found in the bottom of my knife box bag. I have found the RRP to be a useful little knife because unlike either of its much more expensive cousins that i have it does not have a half stop, which for me makes it easier to use and the overall fit & finish is good, as to how it will stand up to daily use time will tell. So today it rides happily along with the #68 Buckaroo that has replaced the #66 Calf Roper as my main carry.

Old Man,

Any particular reason the 68 pushed the 66 out of the pocket? I have a Calf Roper and a Jack, and love them. Been interested in a 68, but haven't pulled the trigger.......but I do love that the 68 jack has the pen in front of the clip.
 
Kris - the Chamblin whittler is spectacular. Everything about it is wonderful, but the gold pins are pure genius along with the amazing stag scales. :thumbup:

Mainly because it is the new one, the #68 was my first choice but the dealer i usually buy from had just sold his last #68 but still had #66 in Purple Sage and it is the same knife right ? Well i was very happy with the #66 but i tracked down a #68 in Purple Sage and after it arrived i realized they are not the same, firstly the Purple Sage covers are much different, on the #68 they are much darker more like a black cherry and the equal end looks better IMO. I have a #66 Slim in Purple Sage inbound at the moment but i can not see it kicking the #68 out of my pocket. I have oiled the #66 and put it in my EDC box where i am pretty sure the Slim will follow. I am not sure about the Jack, i have found the choice of a sheepsfoot or spey as a secondary blade much more usefull than a pen blade.
I hope i have answered your question. Regards OMR..

I am carrying these. At least I didn't forget to carry like somebody (who'll remain unnamed) did yesterday. :)
