What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Jack Black]

I've been away for a couple of weeks moving, and it has taken me 2 days to catch up on this thread . Wonderful reading and gorgeous knives, I have missed the Porch. I picked 2 Bark River city knives and a couple of SAK's and scout patterns for the move, and boxed up everything else. This TC was the first to be unboxed, so it seemed appropriate to carry it today.

Good to have you back Tom, and I hope the move went OK. Nice choice :thumbup:

Nice old Case Gev :thumbup:

Thanks, Jack; I also think my (and most other) sowbelly is quite a looker! Your weight-loss idea has merit, too. I've been seriously considering switching from a "dinner plate" to a "salad plate" for my meals as a way of physically limiting portion sizes, since I apparently don't have the mental discipline to do so!

Man, that photo really shows off the charms of the buffalo horn on your new lambsfoot, Jack; mesmerizing!! undefined

The Sowbelly is a very aesthetic pattern I think GT. Yes, I definitely need to start trying to tighten my belt! Thanks for the compliment my friend, that is a great selection of knives, very generous of Paul H. Love the Office Knife :thumbup:

That was mine, I gave it to your friend . The wood is wenge and the jigging is all natural. Wenge has a wonderful grooved pattern. Most makers sand it smooth to reveal the layered grains so it's not often seen on a knife retaining the grooves. Enjoy!

Nice work there :thumbup: Good to see the TL-29s gents :thumbup:

Stunning pic Dan :thumbup:

Been a bit of a horn kick this week :thumbup:

Mornin' Jack, hope you're doing OK? What is this one my friend, I can't quite make out the makers mark?

Nice old Schrades. :thumbup:

Thank you Jim!

That jigged and sharpened mid-20th example is pretty and super functional. :thumbup: Any idea what kind of wood took that intricate jigging? It almost looks like my bone Boker.




Tuesday same as Monday -- with one small difference in hue:

That case green bone looks great.
Regarding the tl-29, the guy my friend got it from expanded a little bit on the mod.

My 74 Trapper is in my pocket today. I thought those combo would be more bulky in the pocket than it really is. A great set of blades. I think I'll leave the coins and O1 steel blanks at home though...

Mornin' Jack, hope you're doing OK? What is this one my friend, I can't quite make out the makers mark?

Morning Paul, I'm well my friend. I hope you are too That's a J.Howarth, the last Sheffield cutler of that name finished his working life making knives at the same premises as Arthur Wright & Son, and in fact they still own the J.Howarth mark :thumbup:

Two beauties, Jack! The horn is a good look for you

Thanks Gev, and I have two of them! :thumbup:

 

[r8shell]

Good looking pup, there! And the dog is cute, too.

I've got two canines with me today, too. A Coyote and a Terrier.

Great knife Jack. I could see being on a horn kick for a year or so with that one.

Blonde dog blonde blade, good looking pair Travman.

Welcome back, Tom! I hope the move went well. Excellent TC, although it's kind of strange to not see a scout knife after your 2-week hiatus!


Keen Kutter office knife:

Thanks GT! Happy with my new place, and simultaneously happy to be back home on the Porch. I know, very out of character for me to be without a scout, see what two weeks away will do to a person ? Outstanding Office knife :thumbup:, what is the length of that?

Good to have you back Tom, and I hope the move went OK. Nice choice :thumbup:


Been a bit of a horn kick this week :thumbup:

Thanks Jack! It is good to be back, I missed the fine people here. Fantastic duo today sir :thumbup:


Esky with a very capable Primble for me today.

Thanks a lot Tom, it seems strange not to see you post a FB, but those two folders are outstanding :thumbup:

sshakari Fine knives those from Chambriard. Is that the fragrant Juniper? Le compact or le compagnon? The size difference is a lot!

Have a great day everyone!
