What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Here are the two spoons I have at school. The big one is a piece of hickory I carved green that I use for a coffee scoop. The small one I just finished tonight with the Boker. A piece of advice; don't carve old seasoned hickory! My hands are worn out, and I put a pretty ugly gash in my left index finger roughing it out.

I really like those Böker barlow bolsters. :)
 

Beautiful Erickson Tim :thumbup:

Nice “golden” Barlow, Jack, and I was glad to see this later unfiltered shot of the machinery on which the original artistic photo was taken; I can even see the exact location of the first shot on the wider shot. :cool:

Thanks GT :) I tried to pick up a couple of the smaller Joker knives in that pattern for other members at the weekend, and it seems that Joker have discontinued them - the smallest size at least - the guy in the shop looked through the whole 2016 Joker catologue, and they weren't in there :(

Carrying these two today, both gifts from good friends, my Todd Davison given to me a while back by Stephen, who used to post here as ‘Old & In The Way’, and the Coyote, which I received from Paul PMEW just yesterday :) :thumbup:



 
GT Thanks for liking my new Blackwood, it's a charmer:thumbup: I'm impressed, I may know something about lit, history, art but maths is an area of imbecility for me-even though I respect it. Biology, horticulture I have a good grasp of but maths...:eek:sadly none beyond mental arithmetic (I suppose that's something these days!:rolleyes::D ) You Sir, are the 'Compleat Man' in the Renaissance ideal!

No more little Jokers, Jack? That's a bit disappointing. I hoped to come across a ram's horn one like GT's someday.

That Coyote is a gem, isn't it? For Wooden Wednesday, I'm carrying mine, and a recently rehabbed Camillus:




 
Wow, that Henkels is an attractive stockman, Trand; distinctive jigging! :cool:

More of my carry for the week:

Thanks GT. You can still find Bokers with that herringbone type jigged bone. And that's a great trio you have there. Looks like you've got your bases covered :thumbup:

Carrying my modded S&M gunstock I just finished last night. This one is going to be on me for a while!

Wow fantastic mod Ben :)

Congrats on the new yellow Erickson, Tim, and on the Zulu, for that matter! What a dynamite (even notable ;)) pair! :thumbup:

Thanks GT. You imperial jack is a stunner. I see your love for canoes though :)

With me today, plata o acero

Good picture there. I've been thinking of ordering this same knife while I still can. I believe your picture just put me over the edge.
Enjoying everyone's pictures. This place is full of enablers I tell you:).....Thanks you all,
Rick
funny thing is the reason I have this one now is because of somebody else's daily carry photo put me over the edge as well.. it's like a chain reaction of 83 Purple Hazes!! ☺

Today I am carrying my 25 EO. Such a fantastic utility knife.

Bringing out the heat today Rob~ That jigged micarta is awesome.



Thank you Gevo, it's my "feel-good" knife. OR some might call it a Buck 301 tribute ;)



Thanks bud :)

Sporting my "No BS zone" pin along with today's carry on this sunny day.

Holy smokes that there is what's missing from my life! If I may ask, what is the blade length? (tip to bolster)

Edit, nevermind! found my answer in Ken's thread. perfection all the way around.

You rascal you!!:) I've been thinking about a 25 pattern EO sheepsfoot as well, but probably in jigged bone. I'm thinking it might be a little small for me but everyone who has them seems to be well pleased. I guess it's a situation that you just don't know until you try one. So many patterns and variations and so little time! Oh well.
Thanks again, and take care,
Rick
 
Thanks for the additional details on your rooting interests and the Russell trapper, Tom. Nice pairing in honor of the Blues today. :thumbup: (Congrats on their already clinching a spot in the playoffs :thumbup:; the Red Wings’ playoff string looks to be in serious jeopardy after 24 consecutive years unless one of their goalies heats up! :()

Gorgeous 'yotes Jack and Rachel :thumbup:

Gold, black, and white today for the Boston Bruins. The team I cheer for when My team is predictably bounced from the playoffs every year.

I could be happy carrying this 25 every day paired with a larger modern folder. But as you said, with so many patterns, what fun is that?!
