[lutejones]

I couldn't make up my mind today so I'm carrying the three of them.
A little bit of blade overdose

Smooth A̶n̶t̶i̶q̶u̶e̶ ̶Y̶e̶l̶l̶o̶w̶ Rotten Banana.

Yowza! Somehow, I missed this when you posted it yesterday. It looks so regal in your photo! :thumbup::thumbup:

 

[RDaneel]

Dean, thanks. I've committed to giving the Pres some much needed carry time lately and restore the DEEP character that I foolishly polished away months ago. I'm on day two so far.
Those are some sweet TCs you are carrying, but that soup bone is just something else!

I waited to long to snap a pic of the presidential, so I'll just reuse a pic. It was taken prior to the aforementioned polishing.

After seeing that beautiful smooth white bone I felt the need to give my Black Cherry Saw cut some love . I think she was a little jealous lol .

Great looking Black Cherry TC! Has just the right amount of character. :thumbup:

Thanks, Erik. Always good to see your presidential - it'll get its character back! Mine is on holiday until blue jeans weather comes back. I'd love to carry it now, but in shorts it feels like a lead weight.

One of the best TCs for sure!!

Thanks, Gev.

That is a Grail knife with exceptional marrow. A grail's Grail!!:thumbup:

Thanks, Robb! It's been growing on me since I got it six months ago. It is a nice CF knife, too.

Quick and dirty Cammy EO Jack with my cob and my hat. Off to work

 

[Macchina]

A weekend spent with my baby and these two Boy's Knives. It was cool enough to break out the Filson Cruiser!

 

[Jack Black]

Real sorry folks, my internet is still down at home, and I'm just not up to multi-quoting with my IPad Mini on a poor wifi connection Thanks for all the kind comments on my Davison yesterday, it's always a joy to carry Loving all the great Barlow pics :thumbup:

I'm carrying my Arthur Wright Lambsfoot in buffalo today, and a John Ryalls Sleeveboard in Ivory.

Thank you Rd ! She is a looker 😊

Am always entertained by those "knife and unusual object" photos so I guess it's my turn. Aparrently this guy lives in the shade of the flowering plants on my back deck. Found him when I was watering - he headed right back to the plants after having his picture taken.

Carrying a nice old Schrade Barlow today (me, not the bug).

An excellent Shadow Laguiole, very impressive, approve of that!

What's the length please? 11cm or 12cm ??

Thanks, Will

11cm blade.

 

[Dr-Mabuse]

There's a wallet that'll pack a wallop. Did you make that? Seems like a great way organize your pockets.

I made it. It took a couple attempts before making something that was functional and that looked decent, but still has plenty of room for improvement when I feel like making a more refined version.

It is, indeed! This was my first canoe, and has really turned me on to the pattern.

:thumbup: I think the canoe pattern is very useful and satisfying!

Nice Knives and pictures everyone:thumbup:

This red bone Sawcut #77 came in the mail yesterday, put my own edge on it and carried it asap

...

Congrats on the 77 Barlow, Paul! :thumbup: Those red sawcut Northfields are extremely handsome knives; I always enjoy seeing Harry's and Ron's, and now I can look forward to seeing yours occasionally.

...
Carrying my Davison today :thumbup:

Eye-candy without a doubt, Jack! :thumbup:

...

...
Thanks Gary. I hope you continue to enjoy that Sowbelly for many many years! That Carbone Opinel looks like a slicer for sure!:thumbup:
...
I have another Barlow with me today. Since it is Sunday I dressed it up some with this Ebony TC. Hope everyone has a good day!

Love the ebony TC triplets!! :thumbup: TC x 3 might stand for Terrifically Classy, Tres Chic, and Totally Cultured.
Thanks for the kind words, Ron.

"I Hear That Train A Comin'
It's comin around the bend
I ain't seen that Primble
Since I don't know when

Wonderful Waltham watch, Gev, and although I don't recognize the knife, it sure has exquisite bone & bolsters, shield & shape!
And does the song indicate you know something the rest of us don't?? Has Primble been absent for so long because he's incarcerated??

Thank you my friend! That ebony is some elegant pocket jewelry. I hope we see Primble soon! He must be catchin lots of fish

Gev I agree with you on this. I wouldn't what him to know it, but I sort of miss him!

I wonder what the "half-life" is for active BF members. So many folks who were major contributors when I first came here have disappeared. Of course, some have also stayed and are going strong, and new members have made valuable contributions, but there certainly is some "attrition" that saddens me.

Thanks, Gary. The Norfolk will end up being a favorite.

I never carried a square bolstered stockman (although I have some in my collection), but Case did a great job on minimizing the normal pocket-wearing effect on this model. Try it, you'll like it!

That Imperial Toothpick you have looks interesting.
...
Today's carry. I think I have too many favorite TCs, but this is 2nd behind my grail.

This (it's also my avatar)

A Transcendent Couple of Truly Captivating barlows, Dean!! :thumbup:
Thanks for the information/recommendation regarding the chestnut jigged bone Case medium stockman. I've become very fond of the Case chestnut bone CV knives, so all I need to remove my reservations about a knife in that "family" is a good word from someone whose opinion I value! :thumbup:

Hey Folks, my wife Terri's finally on the mend after multiple back surgeries and 2 infections....

Fantastic news, Ted! I hope she's back to full strength very soon.

...
Today I carried these two.

Have a good one!

Ken K.

Splendid selection, as always, Ken! The wooden Forum knife is great, but that red old cross Alox demands my attention! :thumbup:

Whittle me this Batman...

Looking VERY good, Ted!

Thanks for the Talon compliment GT. A great trio there you have. That yellow on that toothpick just pops!
Of course I'm always rooting for a No 7 as well. :thumbup:
...
Farmer today in the bush.

Thanks, Dan. Given that the yellow on the toothpick is celluloid, I hope it doesn't literally "pop" one of these days!
Great Farmer foto; is that your olive Farmer? The color looks much different against the deep green of that maple leaf!

Gentlemen, those Presidentials are definitely photogenic!! :thumbup::thumbup:

Vale! IMHO, there's no such thing as blade overdose!

Real sorry folks, my internet is still down at home, and I'm just not up to multi-quoting with my IPad Mini on a poor wifi connection Thanks for all the kind comments on my Davison yesterday, it's always a joy to carry Loving all the great Barlow pics :thumbup:

Top-shelf choices, Jack! :thumbup: Sorry to hear you've had so much recent frustration with your internet connection. :thumbdn:

Great pic, Macchina! Has she seen my knives? Everybody's a critic!

Phenomenal photo, Atiger! :thumbup: That could be the start of an entire beguiling barlows and bodacious bugs series!

Here are some of the knives in my pockets this week.
My first knife, a Colonial Forest-Master:

My latest knife, a gift from my daughter, made by Mariano Zamorano in Toledo, Spain:

A pocket-worn harvest orange Case humpback stockman (thanks, Mike):

A Rough Rider red jigged bone baby copperhead:

Lots of beautiful knives on display today. I've really been enjoying this titchy wee opinel no5 recently. I had all sorts of odd jobs on a to do list from the Mrs.
