A lovely set, P. I always enjoy seeing your blue-handled knives. Is that IXL a lambsfoot?

Thanks! The IXL is a single spear blade barlow:

Spear blades aren't my favorite (clip blades are), but that hasn't prevented this knife from quickly becoming a favorite-- the latest in an estimable line of preference-busters!

... As for my carry today, the image quoted remains my go-to, all of it, unpocketed at the end of each day (into that leather bowl/butler), repocketed before each new day's adventures.

Cheers guys. Almost got frostbite taking it. I've actually been carrying my A.Wright Barlow today.

I'm not surprised, you've got the winds of two counties blowing at you there! :eek: That looks like a warmer spot - if not a drier one! ;) :D :thumbup:

Jack, great Stag duo my friend, of coure I really like the Abbeydale but just as much the old Sheepfoot pictured:thumbup:

Thanks a lot Paul :thumbup:


Stunning :thumbup:

My very first GEC - where it all began in June 2013. The #55 in Autumn Gold jigged bone. I've not carried it in awhile but the past couple weeks it's now reminded me why I like it so much.
 
Thanks Ron, that bone is a lovely colour :thumbup:

Thanks buddy :)

Jack and Ron, thank you for the kind compliments. Ron, the jet black ebony on yours is marvelous.

As for me today, I'm feeling like a splash of color:

That is truly a Workhorse! They are beautiful knives and built like a tank. :thumbup:

TGIF! Home from work now so I have downsized to this SBJ for the remainder of the evening. :D

Strictly speaking, yesterdays.

Great shot, Donn! Looks like the Bwlch is South Wales? What I would give to slope glide there !

I'm remembering our Veterans today. My grandfather who fought in WWI in France, my father who fought in WWII in the South Pacific and all those that have put on the uniform in protection of these United States of America and the world at large. I'm a vet too, but don't really talk about it much. Cheers to us all.

Well done Gary ! We must never forget
 
... This choice is an interesting lovely knife and I hope to see more of it this week. :thumbup::thumbup: Thanks again, Gary:thumbup: Have a wonderful evening and week.
Thanks for the kind words about my Zamorano I displayed (much) earlier this week, Gev. :)

...
I'm carrying my 2015 forum knife today.

Fine knife, Dean! :cool: I also like the little LOTR replica (reminds me of the Supremes' song "Stop! In the Name of Love"). ;)

I am carrying the Drover again today.

Drover again, on what is yet another spectacular autumn day!

Fabulous portraits of your Forum knife, Erik! :thumbup::thumbup:

Early start for me in the morning, but I got these two laid out to grab on my way out of the house :)

I'm changing it up today and giving the Lambsfoot some love.

Ron and Greg, your Wright Lambsfoot knives are both showstoppers!! Ron, your deep black covers are quintessential ebony to me! :thumbup: Greg, even after seeing many pics of yours in different conditions, I hadn't realized until now what a variety of dark tints swirl through the covers on yours! :cool:

Today's carry.

That sun-drenched I*XL looks grand, Dean! :thumbup:

Carried these two to the YMCA and coffee & then lunch . Ulster Boyscout and the Camillus U.S.A. camp knife from Andy ( Gafishing ).

Then found this PalBladeCo and carried it home too.......
Harry
Congrats on the Pal camp knife, Harry! :thumbup: With that new find and your newly-won Camillus and your Ulster scout (which I didn't remember seeing before), you're becoming quite a Scoutmaster!! :cool:

...
This old Ulster Equal End Jack today, so well built, centered and solid blades, great bone covers and neato bandito bowtie shield.

That's a monumental Ulster EE Jack, Paul!! :eek::thumbup:

Vivacious pair, Alan; primo stag on your 25!!! :thumbup:

Haven't posted here since Tuesday, I think, but I only have a few of this week's carries that I didn't post early in the week.
Tucked in a whittling thumbguard/pocket slip under my keys are a Taylor-Schrade 44OT Workmate and my scrimshaw stockman (thanks, r8shell):

I miss getting on here! life took a sharp turn and in damage control...haven't bought a knife since like 2013! Trying to get up to Alaska and stop being a slave for business' that don't appreciate so will start my own making knives and amulets. Hope everyone has been doing well this past 2016. *fade to black*
 
Thanks, Jack! The bottom knife is gorgeous and its always nice to see Abbeydale!

Thanks my friend, the lower knife is an old TEW Sheepsfoot I have had for a while :) :thumbup:

Congrats on your two different pairs of superb stag siblings, Jack!! :cool::thumbup:
