What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Gevonovich]

Very nice, Gev! What a great blade!

It's a smaller hawk at 3.25" but I enjoy using it in the garden. Thanks, Gary! Hope your having a fine September day

My Grandfather's knife came on a hike with me today. He taught me a lot about the woods and that is what got me started in the outdoors. I am lucky enough to still have him with me.
4300", 58*, rain, wind, and a constant bank of fog for 7 miles. Perfect weather if you ask me!

Old school!!!! :thumbup::thumbup:

Thanks Gary. Your knife will be fine with a little oil. Probably can't say the same for the leather pouch.

Thanks for the advice, Bob; I got some mineral oil onto the 85 as soon as I discovered it in the bottom of the washing machine. And I'm fairly optimistic about the pouch, too. It's one I made from a piece of the webbing of an old ball glove, so it has been through a lot of extreme conditions in its "sporting life" and also received regular waterproofing treatments as part of my glove, so I'm hoping it will continue to perform well for me.

Traveling light today....

Nice, SAK Guy! :thumbup: Is that a Recruit all dressed up in its Sunday best?

Hope you all have a good weekend.

Brett, with that knife, you're like the Temptations from Motown: You've got sunshine on a cloudy day!

...Inspired to tote my soup today:

...

Very distinctive soup, Primble!

Heading to a party today. Need to have a knife or few that will open beer and wine....

With all those helpful and essential tools, you're gonna be the most popular guy at the party, bozack!

I just got it in the mail Friday it says schrade imperial imp11, so far I am enjoying the feel in hand and pocket.

Thanks for the info, tisawa60.

...Had the Palo Santo today for the third in my mileage/tang model number match series. Amazing how this keeps happening to me!

Very cool, Dean, but I'm starting to get a little suspicious! If I get time, I think I'll try to track down all those cool odometer pics to see if there are any shenanigans involved!!

It is game time so I thought I would break out the Soda Scout for the remainder of the afternoon!!

Good looking Scout, Ron! :thumbup::thumbup:

Another fine old knife, Gev! You sure do have an impressive variety of vintage knives! :thumbup:

Nice Old Timer, Ben! :thumbup: Do you still have your Alox SAK (was it a Pioneer?)?

The knives on kitchen duty this week were an Opinel #7 (it's on kitchen duty every week)

an Opinel #6 (my very first Opinel, with whom I have a somewhat rocky relationship )

and a 2014 Forum knife with new clothes (thanks, Markesharp!) that developed a nice patina after a week in the kitchen. (This photo precedes the 77's KP.)

Rob & Todd, great soups...I know there's a link between you two and the soup

Ron, nice pic of the soda Scout, I'm going to join you in a soda shortly... I'll combine a cigar with mine these late Summer nights are beautiful and will be gone in a blink of an eye.

Many other fine cutlery posted fellow members....just a great thread to peruse.

These two today, one LFP and the other back pocket under my bandana.

No shenanigans, GT, I swear! I put about 1,000 miles a month on my car and just start carrying the next one to come up a couple hundred miles before the odometer matches. The fourth (and last) one will be a TC spey (probably New Day) on a trip coming up.

Love the bone on that Lick Creek Farmer's Jack, Paul. One of those is on my list of things to buy someday.

 

[BenHarris]

Nice Old Timer, Ben! Do you still have your Alox SAK (was it a Pioneer?)?

I do. And yes, its a Pioneer. Its holding up great. It still goes in the rotation.

Thanks for the update, Ben. I still remember you and your Pioneer and the crosses you'd make about the time I joined BF!

[BenHarris]

I am still making those pegged crosses, as well as some single piece ones. I will have to post a picture of my favorite one when I get back to school.

Gev - That is a beautiful old Hawk lurking in the shadows!

GT - Thank you for the compliment on the Scout!

Paul - Thank you and I hope you enjoy your evening! 2 Great companions with you today!:thumbup:

Very nice Gevo!!!! I can see why you would use it in the garden.

[GasMan1]

Some great looking blades on here guys. As always. Got this old Robeson with me today. I found it at an estate sale. I dont know anything much about it. The bail was broken and it was so rusted I couldn't tell what kind it was. It's got some character IMO.

[SAK Guy]

Nice, SAK Guy! :thumbup: Is that a Recruit all dressed up in its Sunday best?


and a 2014 Forum knife with new clothes (thanks, Markesharp!) that developed a nice patina after a week in the kitchen. (This photo precedes the 77's KP.)

- GT

Thank you! It's actually a Spartan because it has back tools (you can't see) and one is a corkscrew! :thumbup: A nice little knife that will still do many tasks.

That Forum knife is very very beautiful GT...congrats!!! I regret not getting one but all the stuff with my Dad had me focused on other priorities. I'll look for one but am not optimistic.

 

[KBA]

GT - I appreciate that buddy. Now, if I could only find the last two 73s Im looking for, it really would be a sunny day.

All the best

 

[Jack Black]

Have a great adventure, Jack; your trip can hardly be other than satisfying with the scratted bone in your pocket! (Gotta get me one of those book-holders!!)

Thanks GT, it didn't quite go to plan, but then the best adventures never do! The book-holder would come in handy for me too, it's from a 19th century book I have with old inventions included Glad to hear your 85 is going to be OK :thumbup:

Beautiful knife good sir !

Thanks a lot Dan, hope you enjoyed your Dim Sum :thumbup:

Seemed like a good day for an old timey Barlow .....

Great pics guys :thumbup:

Very nice, Gev! What a great blade!

+1 :thumbup:

These two for me today Have a great Sunday everyone :thumbup:

 

[Half/Stop]

This 56 Dogleg Jack will probably handle anything I will need around the house today. Have a great Sunday everyone!

 

[r8shell]

Have a great Sunday, everyone, and don't forget to look up at the Super Harvest Moon eclipse tonight!

I'm off for a short bike ride, and I'm bringing a whittler along in case I need to stop and rest and whittle a bit
