I've been neglecting my #14 camel bone as I haven't carried it since I got it . It's been sitting in the safe so out she comes for tomorrow's carry 😎

It's just been hard to put down my antique yellow bone as its been it my pocket since day one .

^ Those are two great-looking knives TF :thumbup:

Excellent pics Paul, looks like a lovely walk my friend :thumbup:

Cool pic :thumbup:

Carrying this William Rodgers Lambsfoot in buffalo today :thumbup:

Paul, this is what is in my pocket right now, a small Chambriard, and it fits your legal requirements. Blade is a little under 3".

That's lovely, I didn't realise they made a smaller model. Could you pm me with where you bought it?

Turning into a bit of a mountain man, only 32 and most day's I can't stand being around people...one of these days I'll go completely off the grid. LOL

 

[Jolipapa]

Back home yesterday, had an advice for a parcel waiting for me at the PO.

I haven't carried this one in a while, it was my first four blade congress and the first thing I ever bought on the exchange. It's quite a work horse and I love the deep canyon jigged bone.



I have quite a few congress knives now and something struck me for the first time the other day; boker, henkles, hen and rooster, moore maker, rough rider and such all have their blades in the arrangement above. As in, I hold the covers in your right hand and open the main (which is behind the secondary) with your left thumbnail - however, GEC is the only maker which does this in reverse. Isn't that odd?

Something about that pic makes me smile

Now that is one sweet and interesting knife!!
Tell us more?!

Found some turtle hatching shells left behind on the jobsite this morning. Case Medium Stockman in my pocket all day.

I would never have known that's what those were!

Beautiful photo. The way you've highlighted the lovely green in the cover makes this knife look like it's in its natural habitat. :thumbup:

 

[fuzzylogic]

Hi all,

I'm new to the forums and new to traditional knives as well. But for sure I've been bitten by the bug. In a recent buying frenzy I picked up this little guy. A #25 clip point in cocobolo. Originally I was going to let it sit in the tube, but I'm definitely more of a user than a collector, and it's just too pretty to let it sit.

 

[Wilsonhome]

 

[Whetstone39]

Welcome to the Porch fuzzylogic, that is a fine 25!


My Primble is still along for the ride, several days in a row now. Must be a record for me .

 

[5K Qs]

This stag handled Tony Bose Zulu is on my hip today, with an exceptional sheath that Larry Parsons made for me

What a sublime knife and sheath, Kris!!! :thumbup: (And a super clean machine behind it.)

...

To keep on my Grohmann theme I carried this one today as well as a Case Peanut.

Have a great evening all!

Ken K.

Splendid pair, Ken! Your Grohmann series is superlative! :thumbup:

...
Thanks pal, great-looking knives, and I always enjoy seeing that wee bottle-opener :thumbup:

Thanks, Jack. I don't always drink cola, but when I do, it's NEVER Pepsi! Stay thirsty, my friend.

Thanks for your comments, Gary. That's a Klaasy canoe!
...

Thanks, Dean; it seems Klaasy to me, too.

Thanks Gary. I like the progression of your canoe/cannitler collection.
Thanks Drew. Yes 100 is way too hot especially with the humidity we get around here.

Thanks, Bob; looking for canoes keeps me off the streets, at least.
I might have a promising weather observation for you. Yesterday, I walked 3 miles to work in the morning, and although it was only 75 degrees, my shirt was soon soaked with sweat because the air was so humid. :grumpy: But when I left work just after 5pm and walked 20 minutes to the bus stop, it was at least 85 degrees but I didn't even break a sweat because the dew point had dropped significantly. :thumbup: Maybe that's headed your way (apparently only for a day or two, but it's welcome relief while it lasts).

...
GT that Klass canoe is lookin' goooood, how small is it. the crown really sets it off.

Monday micarta prowl along with a small fixed...

Thanks, Steve. The canoe is 3" closed, and this is one of the rare occasions where my photo actually looks better than the knife itself! I've been looking at those little Klaas canoes for ages, but wasn't sure of the quality, but as soon as someone here (and I've forgotten who ) posted a good review, I snapped one up. Very nice little knife! :thumbup:
Your matched micartas look very satisfying; the lanyard on the Bull Nose is scintillating!

Nice Viper! And you were generous giving him 2 warning shots

I'm not a gun guy at all, but that seems like a significant observation, Mike. :thumbup: It also made me laugh out loud, earning dirty looks from both wife and daughter!

I don't actually have the lighter in my pocket tonight, but I do have the Prometheus and modified Vic in my pocket....

Vaporstang, it's sensational to Cu!

WOW, nice pictures everyone!!!...

Single Spey TC...

and what I think is a long gone bull thistle?

Supreme shots yourself, Paul!!

Paul, this is what is in my pocket right now, a small Chambriard, and it fits your legal requirements. Blade is a little under 3".

That is a suave, stylish Chambriard, lambertiana! :thumbup:

Striking stockman, FBC!! :thumbup:

That's a seductive pair of 14s, TheFactor! Glad to see you bring out the smooth camel bone, but I fully understand how the jigged antique yellow bone has established superiority!

...
Carrying this William Rodgers Lambsfoot in buffalo today :thumbup:

That's a seriously salutary selection, Jack! :thumbup: Did that knife have any influence on your acquisition of the A. Wright buffalo lambsfoot that's taken up nearly permanent residence in your pockets recently??

That's a stately Böker congress, Paul! I'm not sure what you think is "odd", that GEC does it "in reverse" or that all the others do it the way they do; do you prefer one way over the other? FWIW, I open all my knives, if possible, in the manner you describe for all of the makers except GEC. But I once asked how people opened their knives, and was astounded by the variety! http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/1245274-How-Many-Ways-Do-You-Open-a-Slipjoint

Carrying this Case Stockman given to me by a friend at work. Great knife!

Stellar stockman, GA!

More of the knives for me this week:
A Canyon Creek sunfish

An olive wood Joker from Valencia, Spain

An Uncle Henry medium stockman (thanks, Dean)

A Rough Rider canoe with gunstock checked bone covers (thanks, Will)
