Haven't carried this one in a while and felt like something different today.

Giving this military knife a third try. It is a certified nail breaker, the strongest springs I have ever encountered. A recent oil bath and solid week with all tools open have lightened its disposition slightly, and I can now at least access the cap lifter without significant cuticle damage.

Running off to church in a few minutes.
This Case Sway Back Jack in CV and chestnut bone is in my pocket...

 

[sitflyer]

Carrying the little Buck Mayo Kaala, the resolza is getting a little TLC, peening the pivot to tighten it up a bit.

In the pocket again today

Lovely Barlow Bob

Jack - lovely photos today, and I hope you're having a great Sunday too.

...

Thank you very much my friend. I've been pottering about in the house all day - even did a spot of work (I'm learning more about bank robbery every day! ), but it's been pleasant enough. Hope your day is going well Stephen, and please say 'Hi' to the kids from me

Lovely Oeser there :thumbup:

I like that :thumbup:

I'm very interested by these pocket sheaths, and often wonder about them. I'm not sure they'd work for me though, certainly not back pocket carry. I like a small fixed blade, and if it wasn't for the UK knife laws, I'd probably carry one a lot more. I love those small Barkies that have been shown a lot lately

That's a great line-up of working knives P. I'm not sure when knives got so 'sensible', seemed hard to get one for love or money 25 years ago. Nice to see things have changed (if indeed that is the case) :thumbup:

Lovely Gev, where do you keep finding all these old beauties? :thumbup:

Very nice Ed :thumbup:

A stylish and practical set-up, as always sir :thumbup: Maybe our grandfathers had stronger nails

And there's another great-looking 'sensible' FB! Nice Resolza too:thumbup:

Nice knives today, guys and gals!
My Sunday go to meeting knife today.

 

[MT Damascus]

That a beauty, Gary :thumbup:

Great looking dogleg right there. Did you carve that mug yourself? Amazing work.

Kris, I never get tired of seeing that dogleg and that coffee cup is SWEET!

Thanks gentlemen, the cup is a kuksa, handmade in Finland out of arctic birch burl, should last a lifetime. The Steingass is no slouch either, Tim builds a great knife.

 

[Humppa]

Thanks for the kind comments about that Böker Sportsmesser. It is a knife I was gifted by my dad two years ago to my 30th birthday. Seems to be a collectible item

 

[josha840]

Just got this little rough rider peanut yesterday. I've been carrying a case chestnut bone peanut in my watch pocket for several months now but the South Carolina humidity and heat has me worried about rust. I swear like crazy and that thing has pretty much stayed wet. So now I got it a SS cousin to carry around during the summer.

How do you like the tortoise? I just ordered a RR congress in that same dress.

Really liking the Resolza sitflyer, is it a custom maker? I've been obsessed with resolzas after I was gifted one from Italy

Thanks, Kris. It's a new one. I was inspired by the Boker Damascus knives you've posted.
That mug of yours is a fine looking piece. It goes well with the Menefee and Steigass knives.

And there's another great-looking 'sensible' FB! Nice Resolza too:thumbup:

Thanks my friend!

Yes Ryouchijtx, it was made by Davide Steri, and acquired by way of "the Sardinian connection"
It is a joy to have and use such a beautiful knife. Thanks for the kind words.

I carried these all week...

The sheath keeps both items upright and aligned in my pocket-- back pocket, for me. Lacking even the semblance of leather-stitchy skills, I'm thinking of adding another Pocono and breaking it in more 'generically'-- although the Arno Bernard Porcupine might be a challenge to secure even so, being so much skeenier spine-to-blade/handle than the others.

(The top two, a Green River/VCM Patch Knife and the Bark River Mini Canadian, each have a squared-off, flatter sheath that works well in a the long side pocket of my work pants, and can be on my belt otherwise.)

Wonderful lineup P. :thumbup::thumbup:

This one will soar above the storm with me today

Awesomeness !!! :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Beautiful knife. :thumbup::thumbup:

I really like that pairing. :thumbup::thumbup:

I love that knife Philllll. :thumbup::thumbup:

The totin' thread could be the Sunday picture show today - great knives and photos everyone !

Back to my roots today:

 

[r8shell]

...in this KSF Pocono pocket sheath. Ignore the mis-aligned lumps; I'd previously wet-formed the sheath to two different blades/tools, and am using it now with these to see how I like it. I really do!

Nice set up. I've had mine in my left front pocket with my cellphone next to it, keeping it upright.
Until I use the phone and things go sideways, and I have to do some rearranging to put it back.

That patch knife is fine! :thumbup:

 

[jordansherer]

I absolutely love the propeller shield with that bone, Primble! Very classy!

Getting some good use out of my #38 today:
