P-Bucket has been playing up again, and they actually expect you to pay for it??? :eek: Can only just display my carry:mad:

Been brooding about bringing this one into proper service for a long time now. It's so wonderfully finished, feels just right in the hand and a compact Pruner blade is actually one of the most useful blade types. I was hoping this year's Forum Knife might have had a small Pruner secondary.....Been avoiding making this a proper user as it's rather rare, all those silly excuses. :confused: Was thinking about waiting to see if I could get an Ivory Bone or a Tidioute as user but nothing ever appears so as this knife feels so good in the hand, I may have to take the plunge and remove the etch through use.

The 38 frame is simply excellent, if GEC were to make a single spring Clip/Pen or small Wharncliffe in carbon with all steel liners and stainless with NS liners, I don't think another knife would really move me again.:thumbup: Knirvarna you see:)

Your going to love it Harry, my wife and I first sampled the Alaskan brewing co. On our honeymoon to AK. Its funny, my favorite beer they make is the Akaskan White but my wife's is the amber lol :)
The knife has been great, but after using it for a while, I'm still not a fan of the sheepsfoot blade as the main/primary blade on the knife. I'll always be a clip/spear blade fan I guess:)
Thank you for such nice comments Harry! Let me know what you think of the knife, and beer;)

I prefer the Amber and my wife prefers the White !!! There is one made by Three Floyds named Robert The Bruce that is a Scottish Typ Ale , that I like a little more !!!!
I traditionally buy just Northfield , but I thought I would give it a go !!!
Keep well my friend !

Decided that this week I will be carrying my few "real" traditionals that belonged to either my grandfather or my wife's grandfather.

Today, Kabar dog leg Jack, single spring, presumably started out as a clip and pen. Jigged bone is worn smooth, but the carbon blades, back spring, and brass liners show their age wonderfully.
