What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

The Chambers is gorgeous Gev, as is your winged friend! (Try ice to relieve the itching, followed by a baking soda and water paste).

For me today:


Super pair as always, Tom. I think I will take your lead and carry a FB today:D

I've taken to dropping my beloved Case Peanut in my pocket for morning dog walks, and then either sticking with it or switching knives later on in the day.

Just a lovely piece! Have a great Chi walk with the dogs. ( I have been reading Chi Running )

Wooden Wednesday demands I carry something classy, thanks to sitflyer I can!



Always tricky to get the beautiful grain and straits one in this Ebony to show :-/
And quite classy indeed!! I love the grain on that one and nothing finer than a TC Barlow:D

Can one get a finer pair....wow!! wow! did I say ...

Gevo, always great pictures of some beauties that you own.

Finally in over 2 weeks, and because it's wooden Wednesday, I'll carry this ebony Erickson instead of the Bose WT. Tomorrow may be a different story lol

I miss the WT already but its a treat to see the Erickson:D Looking forward to what tomorrow brings:D

The covers on the Chambers is pressed bone or what is called pressed stag in the olden days. We discussed it some time back but we need ~P to find it;) Thanks so much for the compliments and you Sir made me laugh with some of your comments and smile with the sight of some of your knives...Thank you!
 
As an avid disc golf, I get chiggers at least once a year. I will send you a PM with the only method of relief that works for me.

Actually, you would do us all a good service if you posted that remedy publicly with a photo of your current carry.

To stay on topic, I'm carrying my Gerber 250C Silver Knight today.

Off to Sheffield tomorrow with these two in my pockets, a J.Howarth Slim Jack (photographed on the base of the Halifax gibbet - no longer in use!), and my trusty Arthur Wright Lambsfoot (photographed on the Leeds-Liverpool Canal at Rodley), both in buffalo horn :thumbup:



 
I appreciate your supreme confidence in my capabilities, Barrett! :D If I were to undertake such a project, I think I'd want to carry different knives each day, with no repetitions throughout the month. So in a 31-day month, I'd need 1+2+3+...+30+31 =31x32/2 = 496 different knives. My current accumulation isn't large enough to do the challenge justice! :eek:

Sounds like something to shoot for! :D Hey, if you did it in February on a non-leap year you'd only need 406 knives! ;)
 
A walk in the woods, a good shot, and 15 chigger bites :thumbup::thumbdn: There was three of these, what i believe to be broad winged hawks

E. C. Chambers Co in my pocket

That's a good looking knife, Gev! The blade and the bolster have distinctive looks about them. Neat hawk photo.

Carrying these two today, my Arthur Wright Lambsfoot in ebony (shown atop the ancient city walls of York), and my Abbeydale Jack (shown on surviving sluice gate machinery in Skipton Castle Woods).




Those two do get around, Jack. (I'm so looking forward to getting my ebony lambsfoot.) The Abbeydale is mesmerizing!

I've got the copperhead bone GEC 22 in my pocket today. I'm trying my best to get this one to look pocket worn.

Great photo. The patina goes well with the color of the bone.

Gorgeous!

Sounds like a wise plan, Dean. :D As usual, another superlative pair of knives for you; I admire your commitment to the Calf Roper as your summer knife! :cool: Your pocket slip always inspires me to try making one with laced edges, although I'd start with a lacing pattern much less intricate than Barry used!

Couple of other knives in my pockets this week are Case chestnut jigged bone CV models.

And on the kitchen table at home, just to admire and work on a little whittling project, is my other Case chestnut jigged bone CV knife, a sowbelly stockman (from Half/Stop)

Thanks for the comments, Gary. I was going to tell you which one of your knives you posted was my favorite, but I couldn't decide! All three are top-notch lookers. I have to know, which one is most comfortable in hand?


Wow, Shane! The jigging on that is stunning.


For Wooden Woden day, I am carrying these two, walnut and ebony.

 
Thanks 5Q !
I think once you've handled Macarta covers suddenly it won't matter anymore and they become tradional with out a doubt 😉
