I carried my Stag White Owl today. A good day at work should always end smelling of metal and oil in the shop (instead of keyboards and mice)...

 

[5K Qs]

Thanks, Jack
When I pulled my knife out of my pocket to use it at work, I realized I grabbed the wrong one. So this is what I actually carried yesterday.

...

Pleasing pair of Portuguese pocket knives, FBC! :thumbup:

always like seeing that RR stag canoe GT:thumbup:


Dunlap LC, but the Doghead barlow will probably see any work if anything needs cut.

Thanks, Steve. Useful pair you have there!

Gary, the orange flowering bush is some form of azalea. The garden is my wife's specialty so don't ask me anything too technical.

Thanks, Bob; I don’t think I know enough about gardens to ask anything technical.

Great shot of a primo knife, GuestWho! :thumbup: Your photos often have unique lighting; what sort of a set-up do you use?

Thanks for inquiring 5kq. It's a 97ot; came with tweezers and a scribe that tuck away nicely in the handle. Schrade sure used to make some quality working knives!

Very cool Old Timer; thanks, quaboag. Your GEC 85 is cool, too; does it have a saber grind on that spearpoint blade?

I've had this 68 Pony Jack for years but have started carrying it again recently. I always thought the round tangs and equal ends of the 68 frame was superior to the 15 frame but it doesn't seem nearly as popular...
…

I like the equal-end patterns, too (although if I had a #68 I think I’d prefer a White Owl to the Pony Jack). Very distinguished-looking knife! :thumbup:

…
It's a Queen made remake (I think they own the Robeson name) from around 1999 - 2000 (which is when I bought it). 3 1/4 inches closed. I haven't sharpened the main blade since I got it (and I have used it); it's ATS 34 steel that came super sharp. I'm not sure of the steel for the secondary, but it takes a good edge. It's a favorite although the bone on one side is cracked; it's still tight and carries so lightly I sometimes forget I have it with me.

Thanks for the additional information, Dean. Sure is an appealing knife! :thumbup:

Carrying these today to clean off the Radish tops and etc.

Harry

Pretty pair of knives, Harry! :thumbup: You’ve got radishes in WI already? NICE!

One more of just the knife, posting it here and the Sunday thread just because of how much I like the picture:

That IS a fab foto!

Today, like many of the days lately, I have been totin' this Old Red Sawcut Northfield Barlow. God Bless all you ladies and gentlemen out there that have served our country. :thumbup:

Great knife, Ron! Can you identify what’s giving it the long run in your pocket? Excellent Memorial Day message! :thumbup:

So, decided to pull out my picnic basket and take the wife on a jaunt...and lo' and behold...did not even remember I had...an Opinel No. 8 (circa 1990). In the basket, with the corkscrew, silverware, etc..
Kinda' like a Christmas stocking stuffer gift you find after the Holiday, way down the stocking, before putting it away till next year.

Very cool discovery, Wolfsschanze! Hope you and the Opinel enjoy renewing your acquaintance.

…I also decided to show my higo some love this morning.

Wow, did you do something special to the blade finish, Erik? I have virtually the same higo, except mine is the basic black (thanks, Dan), but my blade would not reflect the sky like that!

Today's totes. I think I might try this particular group for a whole week and see how it shakes out.

That trio looks like it could definitely have some staying power, TB! :thumbup:

It's an old pic, but I'm carrying my 55 today!

…

Killer stag, Kperla! :thumbup:

Carrying one of my favorite TC Barlows today.

Sweet spear TC, Dean! :thumbup:

…
Had these two with me today

What a majestic, matchless, memorable, mesmerizing pair, Jack!!!! :thumbup::thumbup:

Old transverse KA-BAR-LO today...

Holy cow! That’s magnificent, Atiger! :thumbup:

Have a good one!

Yikes! You had that fine Pony Jack yesterday, and now an absolutely stunning stag White Owl! You are the king of 68s!

Ken K.

Thanks!

Love the character on those two. Such a story to tell..... :thumbup:

Incredible covers on that 85! Did you have that re-handled?

Beautiful pictures today guys!

Not at all.

Came from GEC, just the way you see it.

 

[Kperla]

That is a fantastic knife! I hope they bring the 55 back someday soon.

I'm with ya!! It's a great pattern.. I'd like to see them come out with a two blade version!

Thanks Jack! Even I can get lucky every once in a while.

That is some beautiful bone on that 15.

Carried this one:


(Thanks, Phil)

I just love those 77 harness jacks, and that smooth bone looks great!

Looks like an awesome river to be on and at just the right time! That Soddie looks well loved (as they should).

Thanks! I had such a good time that I plan on being out there first thing tomorrow morning too.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. That is one amazing knife!

GT, regarding the higo, when I grabbed it that morning I noticed a little rust, so I decided to sand it off. Well, I got a little carried away and decided to go for a mirror polished main bevel. Then I proceeded to botch it all up when I took it to the stones to put the edge back on.
But, it's all covered in a patina from the Memorial Day feast now.

This one for a while...

Fantastic. Now I'm getting "blocked" by Cloudflare (as if from a malicious IP) when I try to post certain multi-quoted replies... :grumpy:

In lieu of hoping the typed text just "shows up" in BF's flaky, quirky autosave feature, I'll just post today's totes (same as yesterday).

 

[toppygray82]

The lannys carries with ease and is a solid knife

 

[Jack Black]

Thanks, Jack

For today and the 100*F + heat it's the Svord Mini Peasant.

Looks like an easy mistake to make my friend. Nice work on the Mini Peasant :thumbup:

Looking good r8shell :thumbup:

Love that Blue Grass bolster stamp, GT!

Forum issue. Sorry about the double post.

This one seems to find its way into my pocket more and more!!
