So...the Big Brother arrived last week...
and the fraternal twin arrived today...
gonna take the boys out tomorrow for a stroll. They ain't Charlie's pretty SFO Cranberry...but they shure are pretty. I'm good!
Heavy Metal!!
:thumbup: The bull (steer?) head shields are amazing!
This LB whittler today and most of the time the past month or so
Mike
That's a terrific whittler, Mike!
...
I'm staying with all-ebony, and pocketing these two today. Have a great Friday everyone
:thumbup:
In view of the "upcoming maintenance" to the site, and the time difference, I think I'm going to post the knives I'll be carrying tomorrow before I go to bed!
Have a great weekend everyone :thumbup:
Tasteful knives the past 3 days, Jack, including your lambsfoot each day!
But 3 days of dark covers; I hope the back pain isn't permanently changing your mood. Remember the old song by The Who: "The kids couldn't hurt Jack ... They dropped things on his back ... But they couldn't prevent Jack from being happy."
I'm hoping, and praying, that you can experience daily improvement.
...
Suit-and-tie day for me, so just a small folder. Can't remember when I last toted my IRJ.
Speaking of the "dark side", you've gone all Johnny Cash for the day, Tom!!
Let's see, here's some ancient rock n roll by Lynyrd Skynyrd, I think: " I've got a pistol in my pocket, I'm Alabama bound."
That Esquire/Beverage Scout twosome is too much, jrawk!! :thumbup:
Ten dollar hard snapping No. 11057:
Hard to find one without a lanyard hole - my three catalogs never showed one with the hole.
Patience prevailed.
Looks like the original etch got lost on someone's side walk.
...
GT - thank you and I will pick your Boker from this weeks litter. :thumbup:
Mr. Jack - thank you and if you don't stop showing that lambsfoot around - I am going to be forced into entering your contest GAW. Sorry to hear your back has flared up - have you tried any horse leg linament on it ? - worked for me twenty years back. There were some side effects though.
I kept craving oats and apples and snorted a lot.
I snorted myself, Primble, and I haven't used any linament for ages!
Thanks for the vote of confidence for my Boker linesman knife. Congrats on that tasty ten-buck hawkbill!
...
Thanks for the comments
Primble,
Gev and
Gary. Gary, the other knife was a Norfolk Whittler in mammoth.
...
Today it's a Camillus Barlow and a Vic Spartan.
Have a good one!
Ken K.
Thanks for helping me learn a little more about covers, Ken.
Usually I'm partial to your SAKs, but today that Barlow grabbed my attention! :thumbup:
As much as I loved being exclusive to the Boker 494, I found the knife being a bit too big. So over the past few days, I have switched over to this little Schrade Mighty Mite.

Trim little knife with big capabilities, Ben! :thumbup: I've been carrying my Chinese version all week, and it's been very satisfying.
This Black Box Stockman has found it's way into my pocket again.
Top shelf stockman, FBC; tremendous patina! :thumbup:
Wow, Gev, that's a transcendent pair you have there!
:thumbup: Unusual shield on the knife, and unusual numerical layout on the watch face; very cool!
...
These comments are both highly relevant to my chosen cutters for tomorrow, 2 of my newest arrivals.
...
Congrats on those stag beauties, TB; the way you present them, they're pretty tempting models! :thumbup:
Great photo, A.L.; that's knife looks like it's quite unique and very useful! :thumbup: (And I'm a sucker for animals, birds, tools, landscapes, feathers, mathematical formulas, etc. pictured on knife handles.
)
The Eureka today
enjoy your Saturday everyone:thumbup:
Good luck, Paul; looks like you're working a double shift today, but the Eureka should be more than capable of handling it!
...
You are indeed a gentleman and a scholar, my friend. Wow...wow..wow!!! It is so stimulating to see the catalog shots and the etch on the fancy one
The Regulator...
That name led me off down some cool rabbit holes....The Lincoln County Regulators..huh
Thank you a ton for the work you did on this and the big smile you gave me!!
This is what the porch is all about. I am grateful.
Kudos to Primble for tracking down ID for Gev's fantastic old knife! :thumbup: Gev, when I saw "Regulator", I thought of a novel called
The Regulators by Richard Bachman (aka Stephen King) which is fairly disturbing (although I'm easily disturbed, I suppose); I could imagine many characters in the novel carrying a big old knife like your Big Catt!
My rehandled Camillus is holding up well while I do a bit of yardwork today:
...
And something classy for the seder tonight:
Both look very classy to me, Rachel! :thumbup:
...
Great knife
W.M.B. . You inspired me to carry this J. Askham & Son, Sheffield, for Stag Saturday today.
...
Ken K.
Holy Cow, what an unrivalled knife, Ken! Staggering stag and the epitome of a saber grind!
:thumbup:
Thanks for the comments on the 71(and the tacos).
I'm carrying the 15 while I start moving.
I hope your move goes well, Erik. Great shot of your 15!
