What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

One of the finest slipjoints I have ever had the pleasure, made by the best slipjoint maker, IMO, Tom Overeynder. If you have ever had the pleasure of handling one of Tom's knives, top shelf. This piece resides in my friends collection, but I have the pleasure of enjoying it for a week. His collection will be sold in two years and this one is coming to live with me. Just a stunning knife,

Been carrying my Centofante since I received it. Frank was immensely talented and I wish I could let him know how much I love this piece.


 
Talk about a grail knife! That's outstanding, Kris.

evanPGH, I've always admired that particular model by Frank Centofante. It's a shame he's gone.
 
Old picture, but it was my carry for the day:thumbup:

Paul - I am always glad to see that 73 on display! :thumbup:

Thank you Jack and Al for the comments on my new old Catt. The Washington Jack may not have a butt stamp, however, the bone looks very nicely done !

An old Challenge Cutlery Co. (1899-1928) teardrop jack that I worked over:

I kinda like the ole pods.:D I found a few more species the other day. Thanks for the compliment on the Schrade...always appreciated:D
 
So many beautiful knives show up in here!!. Too many to mention them all. Sure makes me wish I had mare time to look around. I have had so many things going that I have not had the time to sit on the porch much.

I caught this one hiding in my tool pouch today.

Special knife Kris :thumbup:

Very cool, Jack! First time I've seen one like that. A factory error I'm guessing?

Thanks Phil :thumbup: Yes, a Blind Bart Special, stamped on one side, not on the other! :D :thumbup:


:cool: :thumbup:


Nice :thumbup:


Love the clean lines of this knife :thumbup:

this one doesn't mind being around some flux and solder...

Nice work Duane, and a cool old Barlow :thumbup:

Nice bone on baldy, Jack. Your closeups give great detail.

Thanks my friend, it must be sheer luck, I only have a simple camera :) Congratulations, that looks beautiful. The black slip goes great with it too :thumbup:
