What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[I.N.F.K]

INFK -- it certainly does make a nice EDC blade. So thin it disappears in a pocket, feels like you're carrying a comb or something.

May ask the brand of yours??? It looks really familiar.

Just started my obsession with GEC/Northfield/Tidioute and here's the founding member...

That's certainly a great one to start with. See how I said start...

Made by J. Nowill & Sons of Sheffield, England.
Very reasonably priced, at around 30 bones (I think) on the big auction site. Definitely a medium- to light-duty blade, though. Holds up fine for me: stripping wire, cutting rope and cardboard, scoring drywall, breaking down boxes, etc.; but I wouldn't use it for bushcraft.

I was totin' this #47 today

But tomorrow I am going to be totin' this Fremont. My 1st Northwoods
I did good to get this photo before I lost the sunlight. The itch has been scratched

 

[Old & In The Way]

Jack - terrific pairing of knives today. Who's the young fella in the photo?

Smithhammer - beautiful photos and knives.

Whetstone39 - another beautiful photo and pair of knives.

Mark - two wonderful knives (lovely scales on both). Yesterday's Hammer Brand teardrop was outstanding as well!

Erik - I can see why that one would be a favorite. Stunning scales.

ThatDamnSasquatch - striking photos of a lovely knife.

BrotherJim - nice looking Case lock-back.

Andi - nice setup indeed.

Gary - beautiful stag on both of those.

oldmanrunning - nice pickup. I like the slim 66 a lot, and it looks terrific in purple sage.

Perry - I can see why you'd want to keep the Scout in your pocket for a few days.

Nick - two gorgeously scaled knives. The Fight'N Rooster is a very interesting little knife.

No Agenda - good looking swayback.

jrtodd46 - every time I see your Hayn' Helper, I kick myself for not snapping one up when they first came out. It looks like a great work knife.

link2derek - good looking Northwoods.

Primble - Wonderful photo of two of the finest examples of the Swing Guard pattern that I've seen.

jmarston - that one looks like a workhorse. :thumbup:


After exorcising my Charlow blues over the weekend, I decided to pocket an Indian River Jack today.

Hasn't taken long. Have a fair amount of funding from previous hobby liquidation recently, and #2 showed up today in the mail with #'s 3-5 on their way currently... and we're off!

(Better pics to come, got home as the light was fading, and snapped a few quick ones)

Thank you so much, Stephen and GT! Hey Payton, that TC is just as amazing as I was thinking it would be! WOW

Thank you, Stephen. I love 'em!

 

[5K Qs]

I don't usually post my day's carry in this thread; not sure why, unless I'm a bit (or a lot) insecure about my photo skills. But I may have figured out something yesterday that seems like it's improved my photos substantially. So I'm posting a Spanish knife I carried today, just so I can see how the photo look online.

That IRJ could chase anyone's blues away, for sure! Great bone covers, looks really rich & warm.

Concur with Alex and Nick, that is a gorgeous IRJ Stephen :thumbup:.

Thank you Stephen - I am glad you liked them. They should look nice with your old Case XX collection.

Beautiful Indian River Jack !!! :thumbup::thumbup:

 

[Old & In The Way]

5K Qs - nice looking knife, and your photos look more than fine to me.

Alex, Nick and Tom - thank you very much for the compliments.

Primble - you're far too kind my friend, but yes, they'll make fantastic additions to my collection and will be greatly appreciated.

 

[Todd Isa 53]

Well, she arrived. More coming tomorrow. Well... today (CST). Whatever. Had to share.

This is the swedge pic... No the star is no crooked... pinned like a flag flying with the knife open. The tricky star plays tricks on your eyes at different angles. Like a good paining or piece of art... the art plays with the mind when staring.

 

[puukkoman]

Very cool, I dig it.
The grinds are astonishingly good, dramatic and precise. |

 

[J_Curd]

Man o man Todd. This Texan might need one too.

And that pocket slip...so very fine.

The Nowill name is owned by Jack Adams today. They have several models on their site :thumbup:

Thanks my friend, I scarcely remember! Beautiful India River Jack :thumbup:

That looks interesting, who is the maker? :thumbup:

Slipping these two in my pocket today

 

[Will Power]

It's bigger than what I usually carry, although a coat-pocket devours it. Nevertheless, despite the length, it's a sleek carry and not at all heavy, I like the blade assortment too.

Thanks, Will
