That's awesome [emoji1303] what a beauty !
Thanks for sharing [emoji846]That advertisement brings back memories when I fell victim to trying to figure out how to open it lol . But I Was determined and not to smart lol.
That's how it got those two dimples on the covers . But after a few hours I finally figured it out lol .
In my defense it had to be around 30 years ago [emoji56]
Every time I see those dimples on the cover I think of that frustrating day and chuckle.

Big Boy day out.

Still totin' the Humpback Stockman.

Speaking of lazy felines, I inherited this one when I moved in to my new place. The homeowner just left it outside to fend for itself when he moved out. :thumbdn: It is a really sweet cat too. And since I spend a lot of my time on the front porch we bonded really quickly.
It is REALLY tough to keep this Barlow out of my pocket.

Well: what's the secret!?!

 

[TsarBomba]

Well: what's the secret!?!

From what I understand you press down on the spine of the blade and it should disengage. I haven't had one in hand, though, but I've read threads about these knives before.

Photos of today's totes resting in the car with the A/C cranked after I'd finished working under the hood:

I'll never tell !! [emoji14]

Well with mine you hold the knife point up and press on the blade and it releases . To lock it just reverse the position to point down and press on the blade and it closes and locks .

Thanks for the well wishes everyone. Just a cold setting me back for a bit. It just seems compounded given all my other issues, but back on track now.

Gary, thanks for the comments. The electrician's knife is a GEC #15. This one was an SFO for Steven Rice labeled STR*EK (Steven T. Rice Electrician Knife) and has OD Green Micarta covers. They also offered these in a sheepsfoot blade as well as the spearpoint.

That's really good to hear, Bob! :thumbup: Here's to that cold passing quickly. Beautiful STREK electrician's knife, too! I've seen those from time to time, and yours looks splendid.

My carry today will be my Case 63090 SS Medium Stockman again, which I suspect everyone is tired of seeing again (again) at this point. I just got back from bouldering (that's chalk on my shorts), where I was, of course, not carrying it.

 

[Railsplitter]

I think it will be a very long time until we get tired of seeing that 63090, Dadpool. It's a beautiful knife and your photos are great.

 

[RDaneel]

and a Zorro novelty knife I could no longer resist

- GT

Now that's a Barlow! Barlows were meant to be inexpensive knives and (I think) something a boy could carry. That Zorro Barlow hits both with a bang.

Today's carry (in addition to my Calf Roper Slim) was one of my TC Barlows that I haven't carried in some time.

 

[Itsasportsbar]

Thanks for the comments Sam, Jack and Gary!

Very nice pair Dan.

Today it's a 11 Forum Knife and a Vic.

Have a good one!

 

[joeradza]

Great knives folks. The color on that medium stockman is RICH, nice pic Dadpool. Love Zorro.
