What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Technically, I'm toting this around... around my garage. I just finished this.

...Carrying my #33 today.
Pretty penknife, Trand! :cool::cool:

HA ha, it's funny, but I've been in a bit of a rut lately, carrying mostly the Powderhorn or the ebony Ludwig Groten . The tat has been a part of me for many years now, Pre-dating my Blade forum membership by quite a stretch...
Thanks for answering my stupid question, sir! :D I was actually quite amazed at how well the knife and tattoo fit together.

...Carrying my Wheatley Brothers Tackler's Knife today :)

Interesting knife, Jack! :thumbup::thumbup: I vaguely remember a thread (or at least a post or two) that explained who tacklers were and what they did; textile mills, right?

Micarta Monday. I'm surprised, but this Electrician has managed to unseat the 77 for the time being.

Nice knife, Sean! :thumbup::thumbup: What does the blade etch mean (looks like STR-EK to me, but the first 3 "letters" might actually be some other kind of symbols?)?

HST, you have TWO of those everyday Barlows with fabulous covers: the birds eye maple you showed recently, and now is it highly textured/canyoned stag today? :eek::thumbup::thumbup::eek:

Case CV SBJ today in my watch pocket along with my Vic Alox Soldier. The SBJ is my favorite traditional folder out of the many I own.

Superb swayback jack, tomsch!! :thumbup::cool:

Got an early start and a very late finish tomorrow. Not carried this Queen Canoe in a while :thumbup:

That's a splendid canoe, Jack! :cool::thumbup: I seem to have a current infatuation with the canoe pattern. Is your Queen a single spring?


Included among the knives I'm carrying this week are these.

Surprisingly, no Spanish knife in my pockets this week, but I do have this MAM sheepsfoot from Portugal, the other country on the Iberian peninsula

Some wonderful knives being toted today. I spent most of my day and evening driving through an unending storm, and had this old bit of ebony with me, though a paddle might have been more appropriate given the weather.

Glad you made it home safe, Stephen! Nice bit of "good luck" old ebony;)
 
Decided to take a full pocket dump today. Somebody tell me if this picture works, I'm trying something new.

I have a similar wallet did you mod yours? I like the forming of the KSF sheath too. For me T.A. DAVISON with a victorinox cadet in the pouch which is my every day kit switching out the modern folder (box cutting tool) for fun most days. the little Vic gets the most use with the scissors.

Thanks Gev, though I'm far from home. I did make it to my hotel though and hope to be back home later this week. 😀 You posted a pair of fine old knives today too, and I hope they brought you a bit of luck as well. :thumbup:

I did not mod it, but I got it sort of accidentally. I asked for a different one, but apparently they change minor details on them all the time. I like the snap closure.

Thanks! it was an SFO from Steve Rice. It stands for Steve T. Rice - Electrician's Knife

I cannot get enough Northwoods. Thank you for the compliments - it's burnt stag and it does have lots of grip.
 
A Rough Riderfor a late lunch : an artichoke, the poor man's most favorite course...

After a long wait my love finally gifted me this 2 blade white bone 77. It's such a perfect knife and she even had it laser etched with a loving reminder. Feeling like quite the lucky man today.




I will be carrying this one every day and reveling in the patina and coloring of the bone as it ages with use.
 
Thanks. As I posted in the other 77 thread, that gift from your better half is awesome! That's one to hold onto forever. :cool: :thumbup:
