feelin badass today, gotta be strong so need a strongy baby in ma pocket :cool:
a #53 won't fit in the small summer pants pockets so opted for this one here

a rocking #73 rucarta from 2007, a superb knife, quality on this one is stunning
slim enough to fit the small pocket but strong and sharp as hell

I almost walked out the door without one! Fortunately I checked the forum before shutting down the laptop so I went and put my Menefee Dogleg in my pocket. Crisis averted!
 
Anybody want to venture a guess where I am carrying this Case Chestnut-n-CV Prototype "BlankBlanket" today? :D

That is so nice. The bone looks great and...yes please...I'll take the CV "Back Pocket"

I'm happy to see these will finally be making their way to vendors.
 
I'm betting that you're carrying it in your back pocket but I would prefer you to be carrying it in my back pocket.

I don't know about you guys, but sometimes when I get a new knife it takes me a while to get the edge tuned up just the way I like. I'm slowly converting the wharncliffe main on this Queen/Dan Burke half-whittler to full convex. I'm not quite there yet, but I have high expectations for this little knife. Even in its incomplete form this blade is a fierce cutter.

I finally decided to carry my Howser custom 4 inch stag and stainless raindrop damascus lockback.

This knife has the most beautiful, positive sound and feel when it locks up that I have ever experienced.

One of THE best single-springs I've ever seen and an old un' to boot
Sensational bone and blades. What more could you want?:thumbup:

Today, Queen Cutlery QCCC Teardrop in Greenbone. Left it in an orange that didn't taste as nice as I hoped, when I took it out to pocket it, the blade had tiger stripes, almost Damascus look despite existing patina:D:cool:

I was fortunate to find that one a few years ago at the Blade Show while walking the aisles with Charlie (Waynorth). The knife was in great condition but I had to find out about the steel since I'd read great things about Winchesters of yesteryear. I wasn't disappointed. :cool::thumbup:
 
Thanks, Robuck, nice looking Henckels, too!

And Elliott, +1 on the Winchester bone, just right.

Good for you Jeff. That is a fine looking knife. I find my interest in lockbacks increasing, so thanks for sharing.

Elliot, Whoa.. This vintage Winchester of yours is extraordinary and makes my heart beat hard and fast.. What a super find -- fantastic old premium jack! :thumbup:

I changed up this morning to my old Marshall Wells Hardware Company Easy Open Harness Jack pattern. This knife was produced by New York Knife Company, circa 1893-1917 for Marshall Wells Hardware. She is covered in Ebony and her snap is second to none. Certainly one of my favorite HJ's and EO's. ;) :)
