Gev - Bring um on!:thumbup: Mayo and some fresh bread, Oh my, a personal favorite. Lovely knife also.

Well I hope I got all my duplicate posts removed from the other day. When I return home this afternoon I should have a very special mail delivery waiting on me! I can hardly wait. I have this OO 73 in my pocket last night and again today, it should hold me over until I get home.

The tomatoes are truly delicious and your "personal favorite" sound like it to

That knife just keep getting better and better with age!! Can't wait to see the goodies

Jack
Thanks ...lol

Machina
Great pic of that Opinel

Thanks Rachel I appreciate that!

Opinel #6 today.

Good looking Opinel!

I carried my Bull Nose to the range this morning. (I went at like 6:30am because it's supposed to be 118° today! )

Who can follow that Guest^^^^^^^Wow!!!

Haha..... I know a few. Including yourself.

Beautiful carry as always, Mr. Modesty.

Love the green on that one! :thumbup:

 

[SadSappySucker]

Relaxing after work with my #71 in 01 steel. Really wish GEC had some more offerings in 01.

That looks like a beautiful place, and I agree about the o1. A stockman or cattle knife in o1 would be a really sweet knife!

Ron, that Osage is looking as good as ever!

Jack Black has inspired me to carry my lambfoot today.



And because for some reason I feel unprepared and underknifed without an awl, my Case stockman

The lambs foot looks great, but you keep tempting me with that punch stockman. I love a clip/ sheepsfoot combo, and that awl would make a really nice edition.

Böker stockman the last few days.

Great photo of a great looking knife, zolthar!!

Thanks!

I understand the temptation. I haven't carried my Small Texas Jack since getting this punch stockman. It's a perfect blade combo.

I've returned several times just to check out this pair! :thumbup:

I'm carrying my 25, as well, today. It's been a bit ignored over the past month with all the new stuff coming in. Love this little guy.

Pretty as a picture, Shawn!

...
Mine for today.

Another nice photo! I have a Joker almost identical to that one; fantastic knife!

I have been carrying the Esky Zulu for the last week, trying to warm up to it.

Aristocratic covers on that one, Erik - WOW!

Big-league pic of a beautiful knife, Bob!

These two seemed right together. The peanut is new and I figured he'd be lonely if he was stag.

...

That's a charming stag Peanut, duderubble, and as a canoesseur, I covet that amber bone Case canoe, too!

...
Today I carried a Grohmann and a Wenger Backpacker.

...
Ken K.

That slender Grohman is very dapper, Ken! Isn't the Wenger one of the recent additions from your fabled market?

[/IMG]

Today it's an old Delrin-handled Western Barlow...

Enchanting, Atiger!

...
Today's theme was Titanic Thursday. No knives under 4.5" long.



All told, not as heavy as you might believe...

Go big or go home!! Fascinating "heavy metal", TB!

Glorious Recruit, Ernie; I tend to think of that model as "the mother of all SAKs".

This one again.

I think it's hypnotic how well-used most of your knives are, Erik!

had this with me today during the forum issues
...

An illustrious and comforting companion during these "troubled times"!

...
They are pieces of coral, found pretty much everywhere in the Sunshine State. In this particular case, the rocks were doing the propping - of the 'yote so I could stand it up for the photo.

That Joker is pretty way beyond its price point. Always love seeing it.
...

Thanks for the coral info and the Joker comment, Tsar. A recent pic of the jubilant Joker appears below.

Thanks, donn. Do you happen to have a shot of that Joker open? It looks like a beaut.
...
The Buck 55 continues to out kick its coverage, so to speak. It disappears in the pocket but is capable of doing anything and everything. It is Peanut-esque in its utility-to-size ratio. It continually boots prettier/more expensive/"tougher" knives out of my pocket. I bought it to be a forever knife that gets passed down to my children and their's, and I have no doubt that this son of a gun will outlive us all. I recommend one to all. The size is perfect. In fact, it's glued to my pocket now as my wife is expecting any day. I will have this knife on me when our first arrives.

Shawn, I don't know if donn saw your request, but I have a recent photo of my almost-identical Joker that I can post. Thanks for the killer review of the Buck 55; looks like I'll have to move it from my "maybe" list to my "must have" list!

...
Swiss champ in my murse as usual, classic in the pocket.

That's a likable, luminous pair, A.L.!

...
It'll be my Canal St Forum Knife for me today, I don't dare try posting a pic as I think the forum still has problems. all I can add about the knife is that it has amazing whorls....

Regards, Will

Magnificent grain, Will!

...
I hope you do GT I'd be glad to find ONE, all the old Sheffield Barlows seem to have been exported! Thanks for your kind words my friend, it's always great to see your Joker :thumbup:
...
I had a good visit to Arthur Wright & Son yesterday. John Maleham, the gaffer there, very kindly showed me around, and I came back with a number of nice knives, including this Lambsfoot in a special grade of buffalo. Fit and finish are superb :thumbup:
...

Thanks, Jack; about time for your similar Joker to make an appearance, isn't it??
Congrats on your buffalo Wright!! My experience of knives is admittedly quite limited, but I think you now have the most notable ox horn AND buffalo horn knives I've ever seen! (Cory Hess as a Ruple knife with pretty noteworthy buffalo horn, too, I think; I may need to see them together to make my final subjective decision on my favorite.)

Thanks GT. That opinel is looking great.
Good luck on the blade reshaping.:thumbup:
...

Thanks, Erik; I'll need some luck on the blade, I think - I'll be attempting it all by hand, no power tools. I hope the end result is a semi-opulent Opinel #6!

Thanks, Gary. I have some multi-blades, notably almost 30 stock knives of different styles and sizes. Look below for my other passion.
...
Today's carry is my newest addition, a Calf Roper Slim, Northfield 66, which I got from jone on the exchange. The latest in my single spring pen knives.

Congrats on that Calf Roper Slim, Dean; very posh! I wonder if jone is still making leather goods from recycled ball gloves; what an inspiration that was to me!

I wanted to post this (in my pocket for 2 days) yesterday but the site was down. First damascus for me!
...

Congrats on the damascus, Jeff; looks like a quality acquisition for sure!

...
We had such a wet winter here that it really curtailed my hiking activities. The weather still isn’t great, but Spring seems to be here at last! Heading out for a walk early tomorrow, and just getting my bits and pieces together. I have these three set aside. Have a great weekend everyone :thumbup:




...

Ravishing, remarkable, ritzy, rockin' trio for your peregrinations, Jack (and I know absolutely nothing about fixed blades - I'm mostly reacting to Abbeydale & Buffalo, Ltd.)!

Gev, the bone on your knife looks as smooth and succulent as the first-fruits of your tomato crop!

Buck and a Presidential

Hail to the Chief! Mr. President, you look terrific!

My #25 stag enjoying the ghost town of Bodoe, California. It would have fit in a cowboys pocket perfectly.
...

Unusual setting for a very useful knife, tmd!

...
This Schrade Walden 2OT, Augie posted the one that eluded him and it inspired my search Full, solid blades with no play whatsoever, wonderful covers and coined liners:thumbup:
...

...

Congrats, Paul, on finding that voluptuous, vibrant, vintage, Old Timer!

...

Congrats, Vaporstang; what wondrous covers on that lovely knife!

...
Relaxing after work with my #71 in 01 steel. Really wish GEC had some more offerings in 01.

Wow, that photo creates some yearning, Dan!

Zounds! That's a zesty canoe, deskil! I don't think I've ever seen one of those before; are you willing to provide some details??

...
When I return home this afternoon I should have a very special mail delivery waiting on me! I can hardly wait. I have this OO 73 in my pocket last night and again today, it should hold me over until I get home.

That's quite a teaser, Ron; now I can hardly wait to see what you're getting! The osage 73 looks awesome, as always! When do you think your buffalo nickel will make an appearance again??

Jack Black has inspired me to carry my lambfoot today.



And because for some reason I feel unprepared and underknifed without an awl, my Case stockman

Brilliant pair, Rachel! That Jack Black IS quite inspirational, isn't he? (But someday, you'll be quite influential too, when the punchnut rules the knife world!)

Opinel #6 today.

That's a compelling mod, sir! How did you do the blade?

...

Love that Hen & Rooster shield, Gev, but the ancillary ironwork is kind of disturbing! What IS that??

Böker stockman the last few days.

Very distinguished Böker, zolthar!

 

[Jack Black]

Jack - Thanks my friend. It looks like you had a very good visit. That horn is fantastic! :thumbup:

Thanks a lot Ron :thumbup:

Jack Black has inspired me to carry my lambfoot today.

Thanks r8shell, I'm honoured :thumbup:

 

[Wurrwulf]

They fit a whole mess of blade in that Joker, GT! Thanks for the pic; what a lovely knife and blade shape.

 

[zolthar]

Very distinguished Böker, zolthar!

Thanks GT!
