What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Thank you, sir. I sent you PM with the details of that forced patina...


Patriot with me today - love this little guy:


I hadn't seen these before - I like it! Did a little research on the interwebs. Is that bone? or wood?

I think it's a very good design :thumbup: I remember making up patterns like that 25 years ago, and people would tell me they just looked like kitchen knives ('cos they didn't have saw-back, fullers, double-bolsters, hollow-handles, or whatever). I'm not sure when knives became more sensible, but I'm glad they did :)

It's a great design - very useful. That one pictured is in Desert Ironwood - very nicely done by LT Wright and co!

I totally agree, Jack. Such a useful little blade. You really have to carry on for a while to truly appreciate how much work you can get done with it.

Here's another look from today (out walking the property):

 
My freshly modded saddlehorn today, after carrying the unmodded original version yesterday. I'm very pleased with the result.

Cool idea, and nice job!

Fresh from the mail! I'm impressed with Rough Rider so far.

That was my first RR as well. :)

Started on this early this morning (during breakfast, in fact), but then Saturday chores interrupted me, so it contains mostly Friday carries. :o

Mike, you must have about 3 scrumptious sowbellies you've displayed recently! :cool:


Among the knives I've been carrying this week are a ring-opener by John Watts, Sheffield; a Case Sodbuster Jr; a Vic Minichamp; and a Case Peanut.

Nice carries and whittling projects GT :)

You've got the count on the Sowbellies right. I've really been liking this pattern lately. The Northwoods is a bit smaller than the Cases, but still a great size. Today the antique bone (left) is in the pocket.

this actually isn't my edc but my 10 year old brother's. He turns ten tomorrow but celebrated today. I got him the schrade and he normally carries the other two.
 
Old faithful went with me on a few extrications today. It seems to enjoy riding in the wrecker with me.

I tried to carry something else today but I can't seem to put this one down. I dropped it yesterday, put a tiny little peck in the cap bolster. Now it is officially a user and I can not worry about minor scratches lol
