I would go with the Easy-Opener, so you can pinch the blade open.

Agreed.
If not the teardrop in the top right corner, than one of the ring knives that are dead center. Those are fairly easy to open.
 
Did some more work on the cap lifter and into the pocket it went.
Wanted the cap lifter to follow a similar line to the spear main so I dropped the tip and threw on a swedge. Still have to swedge the main, and do some small changes of some things that are irking me. But for the most part, it is up and running.
TL-6, TL-12, TL-24 (pack)? I don't know yet...

Do you still consider the screwdriver tip usable after the mod you've made to the blade shape?
 

The thinnest knife I own! This is a Diamond Edge advertising knife that feels as if I am carrying nothing at all.

It does have a slight flat tip, so in an emergency I would have it available.
That being said I have a screwdriver on the Mini pry bar that I have on my key chain and a 4 way screwdriver from craftsman in my wallet, so I don't Really need That one.

OK. Spoken like a true "knife knut" (or maybe gadget gatherer?).

Found this on the side of the right of way. I know it's a kissing crane but can find any info on it because it's a "special edition" gateway area knife club knife. Just wondering if someone could give me some more info on it
 
Here's my carry for the day. A brand new Schatt & Morgan swell center whittler. Looks a lot like a Conductor whittler, don't it? ;) Finished every bit as nice as one (might be .125" longer OAL):

These two single blades today. My only comment on the jigged orange bone is that it has an artificial feel to it. I guess it's the dye used and would wear in the more it's used.

 
Nice Imperial Bob, Colonials and Imperials are the new collectibles, I love the ones made before the 60s.
 
Thanks Ted. I received this one from Dan (Tilley Knife) that he modified. I must say that Dan did a fantastic job on it.
Well done Dan and thank you once again. :D

Hey, this looks familiar! I am glad to see your project turning out well and it getting some use.
