Worn-out after a long day....but it's nice to return home to contemplate some other worn items. An old Hoffritz single-spring.

Among the knives I'm carrying today are a Schrade USA 34OT and a Colt teardrop jack with "buckshot bone" covers. I'm carrying them in a leather pouch that has a lanyard on it that is a souvenir string tie that my grandpa and grandma brought me from a trip to Yellowstone sometime in the 1950s.

Fantastic !!!
I need a few for my ( one day ) cabinet
! Your already on plural , my friend. I would just love to sit with you and look at your knives, much less ever catch up.Dr, it's a Curtain and Clark eureka jack in a type of waterfall celluloid. Found it at an antique store for a few dollars. It was a treasure in the rough. I just got the rust/dirt off and left her in all her glory

A just arrived EO modification of a #15 from the very gracious craftsman Paul - thank you again sir for adding such a fun custom dimension to this great pattern. Couldn't have come any better from GEC itself. :thumbup: 
I'll definitely be carrying this one with pride.

AWESOME! What an outstanding job, it looks great and super functional. I pinch-open my sheepfoot 77 Barlow all the time, almost never using the long-pull. I've not needed an EO notch, but I do like them in the knives I've had with an EO.

That 77 would look AMAZING with an EO notch just sayin'

Gevonovich - seeing your Curtin & Clark Eureka Jack made my day. :thumbup: Can you make out whether the tang stamp reads St. Joseph or Kansas City? As you might recall, I have a small CCCC gunstock that is one of my prized possessions. I just don't see many examples show up, so seeing yours today was a real treat.
I had this one with me again today.

GT - Great Old Timer and I really like the vintage 1950's "Yellowstone Park" souvenirs that your grand parents brought you.

Your whittler is a real looker, Stephen! About the CC...unfortunately most of the tang stamp is missing so I can't tell....sorry. I will keep my eyes peeled for ya! They are a favorite of mine too and exceedingly rare

Gary, love that leather pouch, I actually owned a novelty knife with Yellow Stone on it. Lost it in a barn when I was little
Will, terrific Hoffritz:thumbup:
David, you converted me over to the single blade #15, an additional thanks when the mail arrives
Jeff, that NF sheepfoot is aging nicely
Ryan, great #23, is that petrified wood that it's sitting on?
Bloefield, thank you for the compliment
Stephen, I really like that #38, when my season gets underway and cash flow increases I will have to pick one up:thumbup:
Primble, thank you for the Charlow compliment. My life has been simplified picture wise with a recent "smartphone" purchase. My brother is a real photographer like you and says it's cheating. He says skills are no longer required
Gev thank you my friend:thumbup:
Jim, nice Copper
