Happy to see the Douk Douk in this thread!

Time for a post soccer practice snack meal.

 

[TucsonMik]

Gorgeous photo, Brett! I couldn't resist this one, either. Such a beautiful clip on these 72's. Your scales truly live up to their name. Beautiful!

Smashing photograph, Dan!!!

Thanks Gev

Dan that's an amazing picture.

I'm one of those really annoying morning people I'm afraid but it means I get to step out my door and see sunrises like this;



The light was pink against the stag of my 25 this morning

Paul. Those are some outstanding photos yourself. Great captured colour!

Breathtaking, Dan! And the Cadet is good looking, too.

I'm being on the level: this is my favorite light carry Barlow.

Thank you Dean
That's a beauty of TC and nice working patina you have beginning. :thumbup:


Jack and GT- Much appreciated you two. Accidentally deleted my lengthy response to you both.


Returned home to put a favourite back into the pocket...

Two absolutely superb pics guys, so clean and sharp :thumbup: Nice to see you swotting up on your Russian Will :thumbup:

Looks tasty Gary :thumbup:

What a great treasure Gev :thumbup:

Cognet Douk-Douk

:thumbup:

Jack and GT- Much appreciated you two. Accidentally deleted my lengthy response to you both.

It's rotten when that happens Dan :thumbup:

I'm heading over to see ScruffUK and ADEE today Got a few recent finds in my bag, and my Lick Creek Barlow in my pocket :thumbup:

 

[Will Power]

Thanks Jack:thumbup:

Do you think that 'J' on your old knife could be No.21 the Cyrillic for 'F' ?

These 2 today :......
Harry

Standout stag, Harry! :thumbup:

Great knives everyone, the highlight of my day to peruse this thread:thumbup:

Just a well worn veteran with years of life left. Peachseed jigging, tight blades that are worn but yet VERY SHARP. Just a joy to carry:thumbup:

Spectacular vintage jack, Paul! :thumbup:

Recently got some copper covers for my beloved Victorinox Climber. They are pretty good, they make the knife hefty and a little nicer looking than the plastic covers. The tools inside the scales are a little tougher to access, but I'm okay with that. If any of you guys wanna know where I got them, shoot me a PM!

Other than the scales, it's just a Victorinox Climber. Probably my most carried knife EVER. I just find it too useful to leave home without. It always accompanies me, no matter what other knife / knives I'm carrying!

Thoughtful way to "reward" your favorite knife! I admire how enthusiastic you are about your Climber!

Stylish canoe, Shane!! :thumbup:

Thanks a lot pal, good to see your Lambsfoot :thumbup:

Toting my Abbeydale Jack today



And this faithful old Barlow :thumbup:



Have a great week everyone :thumbup:

VERY impressive pair today (probably yesterday,actually), Jack! I heard a radio program yesterday that included Mark Knopfler of Dire Straights fame. He apparently spent some time in Leeds. Jack, you seem to know almost everyone - how about that guy??

...What I can't work out is how or why the Sulphur crested Cocakatoos have ignored or missed this tree. ...

Hope the jam turns out well, meako! :thumbup: I'd never heard of sulphur-crested cockatoos before your post, but coincidentally, on Sunday my wife showed me an extremely entertaining old You-Tube video I'd never seen before, featuring what I'm guessing is a sulphur-crested cockatoo dancing enthusiastically and impressively to Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust".

My Case 63090 today

Stellar stockman, Scott! :thumbup: Seems like all the cool kids are getting this model!

Temps in the high 90s expected all week. I'm pining for autumn.

Hope you can stay as cool as that stag pair you posted, Rachel!

We backpacked along the dunes this weekend and had a fantastic time! I brought my Dixie Stockman:
...
I forgot my hat so I put my bushcraft skills to work and several hours later I had a hat that was better than you could ever buy:

Holy Haberdasher, Macchina!! That's an impressive hat you designed and manufactured! :thumbup:

A splash of Olive for me this Monday.

Splendid Spanish selection, Thom! :thumbup: I have a Cudeman model very similar to that that I hold in high esteem.

...
Today I'm carrying my most trusted pocket cutlery companion.

Your "workout buddy" is looking good, Greg!

This one is unusual in my experience.
...

...

Some serious serration there, scrteened porch! :thumbup: Wasn't there an Old Timer model with a serrated blade?

...
My almost EDC Barlow and newest stockman.

Looking good, Dean! :thumbup:

... Yea...I have been on the hunt forever for a sheep Ulster...proud new papa Thanks

Congrats on completing the quest, Gev! Warm, buttery bone on your Ulster! :thumbup:

...
I carried these two today. A Case 6254, thanks Primble and a Vic Cadet II.

Have a good one all!

Ken K.

Sensational duo, Ken!

My grandpa always bought vic classics for 10$ at Walmart and replaced them when worn out, so naturally his last one was pretty much shot. Since I couldn't carry it the next best thing would be to put his scales on my grandmas unused classic, which I've been edcing for the past week ( mostly for the tweezers ). So far I really like these pocket worn scales much better than the shiny new ones on my pocket pal.

I wanted to carry a vic classic because that's what my grandpa carried, now I have a like new classic owned by my grandma that is sporting scales which were worn by my grandpa's hands and pocket.

Superb idea, H & S!! :thumbup:

Gary thank you for the compliments. Your Senator is a wonderful example.

I was Totin the Gem today.

Thanks, Ron. That Orchard Gem sure is a superlative knife! :thumbup:

Scintillating photo, Captain! :thumbup:

Yesterday I downloaded this week's knives from my Plano boxes to my pockets. Here are photos of some of them.
Taylor-Imperial cracked ice canoes in two sizes:

An Uncle Henry 897UH medium stockman (the one in the back):

A Sheffield ring-opener (thanks, Jack):

An Imperial toothpick:

[screened porch]

Some serious serration there, scrteened porch! :thumbup: Wasn't there an Old Timer model with a serrated blade?

There may well have been. I once saw a serrate-sheepfoot Schrade of some extra fancy wooden-handled type at the mall in Salamanca. Salamanca's on the way home after I've spent enough, though, so I left it.
I think this one is a Camillus second (or maybe third) bought from the large e-tailer that picked the carcass of Camillus. Although this one appears never to have had a tang stamp, rather than having had the stamp ground off or exed through. The dark side looks like Buck handle material.

I used the terminal serration to whittle smooth a split thumbnail before it could rip down to where it hurts. Seriously sharp.
Here it is with a Buck 303 and a well-finished Camillus, and a picture of the other side.

Have a fantastic day with friends, Jack! Let the trading begin

 

[Gevonovich]

What a tease...lol The glare is right on the tang

Gary

Thank you fine sir! May the wind be at your back and the sun gently on your face

 

[joeradza]

Brett, almost forgot what my Douk-Douk looked like a looong time ago.
These three today at different times of their life. New (Case), broken in (GEC), and old faithful (D-D).

Been carrying this peanut for the past two months every day, which earned him the nick "old trusty". Using it on food, the patina is coming along nicely.

 

[Jack Black]

Thanks Jack:thumbup:

Interesting idea Will, but I don't think so :thumbup:

VERY impressive pair today (probably yesterday,actually), Jack! I heard a radio program yesterday that included Mark Knopfler of Dire Straights fame. He apparently spent some time in Leeds. Jack, you seem to know almost everyone - how about that guy??

Thanks GT Well, it's certainly a small world, but I've only lived in Leeds for 15 years, and I think that may have been before then. I do remember going to a free gig at Sheffield Students Union in the late 70's (a beer festival I think), and one of the bands, whom nobody had heard of at the time, was Dire Straits.

Have a fantastic day with friends, Jack! Let the trading begin

Thanks Gev We don't do trading, just gifting :thumbup:
