Vintage Joseph Rodgers and sons whittler knife on me today! It's amazing- over 100 years old and the finish and action is just as good as any modern knife I own!

That stag on your Eric's Jack is exceptional Ken. Really nice rivers that run through it.

Those EO 85 BF knives are just gorgeous, Jake. Tim, congrats on finally tracking down one of your own!

Here are three of the knives I'm carrying this week.

Thank you GT, the wait was well worth it~
Even twist offs need some caplifter loving :D
Nice carries :thumbup:

Tim - That is a nice 25 there my friend! :thumbup:
... In my pocket today :cool::thumbup:

Thank you Ron took a long while but it's a perfect small carry with just the right amount of pull.

I really enjoy how green the bone is on your fremont. I know Bob just received one after long last of his own :D

This one done by Bob for the day

@Primble, any time I see a TC Barlow (especially one that pretty) it hits me right in the Feels. :D

@timberweasel, outstanding Boker -- are those scales bone?

@swaybacksteve, that's a sweet Schrade sheepsfoot! :cool: Same scales as a stockman I recently picked up.

@Itsasportsbar, that jack has stag to die for! :thumbup:

As for today's selection...





Along with my omnipresent Vic (not pictured) and PM2, today I have some Cases. The large stockman has CV blades and the mini copperhead sports classic Tru-Sharp stainless. The little guy is just right for the light duty and the CV blades on the stockman make short work of just about anything.

I have caught the bug for French regional knives from Stefan. Recently got the Chambriard Thiers Compagnon and the quality is just outstanding.

I've had this chestnut CV sowbelly for a little over a year now. Just started carrying it every day for the last month or so.
 

Lovely trio Primble :thumbup:

Unique-looking higo, Jack, and I'm surprised how festive I find that white sowbelly! Hope you had a marvelous visit and trouble-free travels.

Thanks a lot GT, the Higo is an Ohta I received as a Christmas gift. The Sowbelly IS rather festive-looking! :D That's a great-looking Canoe my friend :thumbup:



NICE! :thumbup:


Very trim-looking sir :)

GT (5K Qs) would call this my "Detroit Tigers" duo ;).


LOL! Looks great! :D :thumbup:


Both different and interesting Duane :thumbup:

Kings' day today! Everybody gets a part of the galettte. A good opportunity to have some champagne with friends.

The paper crown is for the lucky one who (breaks a tooth on) finds the charm that's inside.

I remember it well JP! :D :thumbup:

- ooh, yes, that is rather nice indeed!

If you ever get the chance in November over here - Gembloux Knife Show in Belgium - you'd get very moist ;)
 
Took along this Case Trapper today. Got an apple in my lunch bag that needs slicing:

 
I love lume!

I just realized I wasn't hallucinating and that my handkerchief has some sort of lume like my watch.

I too have been eyeballing the Sowbellys. Very nice pattern and its my favorite Chesnut Bone CV. Just have to find one in person with the right color jigging and snap to it.

I've got 3 of these NKCA R-W 1978 canoes, all very clean and with that beautiful dark green bone. I briefly carried the highest serial number a few times but then put it back in the butcher paper for safe-keeping. You've got me rethinking that decision now. :p

Oddly enough, my cleanest one IIRC is serial # 1701. :D


Very pretty copperhead and unique patina!

My wife ordered this for me for Christmas of 2014. The blades are perfectly centered and there is absolutely no rub. Snap is decent. its a heavy knife but the blades are perfect size, not too big or too small, and feels great in the hand.
 
Of course, I spent some time in the woods as well - I gotta get my daily dose of being alone in the woods - it keeps me sane:
