What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[avoidspam]

I'm breathing like Darth Vader today Sam! We're just getting some snow flurries here, makes a change from driving rain at least! :grumpy:

That's a very interesting-looking knife my friend (Edit - just enjoyed reading your review) :thumbup:

Ouch! On second thoughts stay indoors!

Thanks for reading my review, a bit of a find!

At work:

I swear, I use this thing for everything but opening bottles. These pesky perforations can't be torn and my thumbnail doesn't do the trick, so...

Lovely TC, I've also been enjoying some of the more senior members of your stable

Jeff did I let that go? Great to see it in its new home and also back home in the USA:thumbup:

All the best, Will

Hope you guys don't mind me joining in. I am pocketing this slim little 66 today and have had it in heavy rotation over the past couple months since i picked it up.

 

[Will Power]

Why would we mind you joining in? This is no clique.:thumbup:

I like those 66 Slims, got a Red Sawn Bone and Acrylic Pearl myself and yours looks excellent.

Thanks, Will

Who needs pocket clips? Thumb studs? I just don't get all that stuff. I can say that out loud here, right?

I did, but I'm getting cabin fever!

It certainly is a most useful tool :thumbup: What's that you've got there?

Very nice WilsonHome, welcome to The Porch :thumbup:

More specifically a TL-29 an electricians knife made identical for military contracts originally by several manufacturers. Every collector or mechanic worth his salt has at least 1 TL-29 in their collection. It's a mighty nice one too.

I like the current trend of removing the stripper/screwdriver blade to thin the profile some making it very pocket friendly. IIRC we have a member here who's really good at it.

Welcome to the Forums by the way.

Enzo Necker 70 and a Queen scout for me today. Admittedly I bought the necker because as of late I have a fascination with white handles, but it is one heck of a little slicer.

Sweet little fixed blade, Tom! Don't know why, but I have yet to pull the trigger on an Enzo. How do you like them compared to your BRKT's?

Speaking of which, I have the Featherweight with me again today:

When I first decided that I needed a quality pocketknife the Buck 500 was the knife I was searching for. I went on their website and saw that they were no longer in their catalog, and this began my search for an alternative (at the time I wasn't aware of the massive secondary knife market). This is what eventually lead me here and kicked off my hobby. Seeing your 500 reminded me of all of this. I think I'm going to have to find me a 500.

It's Wooden Wednesday all week for me, as I've been alternating between these fellows:

 

[RDaneel]

Thanks. Have I not had enough coffee this morning or am I seeing a patina on that Pres? It's looking good regardless!

No, it's just a trick of the lighting. It's still pretty shiny.

Nice black and white Tom ! :thumbup:Have not carried a TC for a while:

Thanks Primble, gorgeous shot of your TC :thumbup:

Speaking of which, I have the Featherweight with me again today:

Thanks L2D! It is a bit less refined, and it is flat ground instead of the convex grind, but I really do like it. I spent a few minutes on my stones when I got it and it really slices well. Doesn't hold and edge as long as the Bark Rivers, but pretty good edge retention overall. Very lightweight too, just melts in a pocket sheath. I think the tang is skeleton-ized and the handles are a hollow.

Nice pic of that Featherweight!
