Thought I lost this scout knife, was very happy to find it today.
Glad you found your scout! I'm carrying mine today too:
Excellent scouts, Tom and Jordan! :thumbup::thumbup: I don't know why I keep fighting it; my first knife (and really only knife until about a year ago) was a scout knife, a Colonial Forest-Master in about 1960, and every time I see a nice scout I think to myself, "That's what I really want to carry!"
Tom, special thanks to you for supporting the Detroit Tigers on their opening day with your choice of black and orange color scheme!
Happy Resurrection Sunday... A day for celebration and family.
...
and the little boy... he loves knives as well.
Very cool photos of kids and knives, Todd! :thumbup::thumbup: But what really caught my eye were those stellar "porch swings" in the arbor in the background!! If I had that set-up, I think I'd spend about 4 hours every summer evening finding things to keep me busy in a swing.
Outstanding, David! Pictures like that are gonna put me on the road to Damascus if I'm not careful!
Gave my 48 some pocket time today. Hope y'all enjoyed your Easter Sunday.
Help me, Doctor! What's the story behind that knife? Is the shield a map of Ohio?? Curious, but very cool! :thumbup:
:thumbup:...
I'm carrying these two today
Stag day today...
I can´t get enough of that F. Hartkopf, Solingen
Shield side...
...
...Here's my Barehead carry for today (cold 2c and rain/sleet, yesterday was beautifully sunny and mellow) this was inspired by Paul talking about forthcoming GEC re-runs.
Regards, Will
Superb knives, Jack & Andi & Will! :thumbup::thumbup: Andi, that Hartkopf stag is breath-taking!
:thumbup:

I rarely carry a traditional. But after my small Sebenza 21 opened in my pocket without my consent and stabbed me, I decided to carry this Queen Cattle King in order to teach the Sebenza that bad behavior has consequences.

Thanks! The scout pattern is one of my favorites and I carry them quite frequently. You can't go wrong with a nice big blade for cutting, an awl for putting holes in things, and a bottle cap lifter for when work is done. I don't think I've ever **needed** to use the can opener though, so I'd be OK if they were omitted or replaced with something nifty-er.

That's one thing I really like about the Vic Electrician - can opener replaced with a little sheepsfoot blade.

Whittling away on this gloomy day. This stockman is my only sheepsfoot, so it gets 100% of the carving duties around here. I tell you what, this blackwood takes the word hard wood to a whole new level!

DO IT, Jordan!!
You'll have absolutely no regrets, and you can probably get a brand new one for under $30! (Actually, there are some folks who don't care for the "wire-stripping notch" at the base of the sheepsfoot blade, but it doesn't bother me at all.) I carry and use mine almost every day. Hey, I used it yesterday; here's a photo:
