What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

I got sidetracked by all these nice knives and forgot to post mine.

A new one in the pocket today... wander if you have ever seen one before. Love finding new makers and new styles...
Maker: Willem O'Kelly from South Africa. @willemokelly on IG.
This knife is called the K'roo Chunky Frank.
And it is chunky. About the length of a TC Barlow, but on another dimension as far as size goes. From Texas we think "Bigger is Better"... Maybe so.
The Blade is 1/4 inch THICK N690Co steel! Brass liners and Paper Micarta handles with brass pins and Nickel Silver fluted bolsters.

Todd Isa 53, that is an impressive knife. I really like it.

Some real stunners posted, in the last few pages I browsed.
 
Finally got the sheath done. Brought it with me today to show Bill Lerma, a local knifemaker.







 
Thanks Ron. Pretty sure my wallet is numb from the pain. I really, really need to move about 50-70 pieces.

And agreed, John killed the game today. Yowzah!
 
Thanks, Invoice, have you seen any other patterns in the Hornet line, besides the stockman and the congress recently shown?
 
Invoice, I just saw that the bay has a large stockman, 3-7/8" at crazy money. Mine is a 3½ incher.
 
Pocketing my long-neglected, but much-loved 66 today :)

Taking this fine Brewer to my hometown for a trip down nostalgia lane today, onion burgers at the top of the list.
