Thank you very much my friend, the street scene is right next to where Croisdale were based at the time the knife would have been made and sold :thumbup:

LOL! :D Great pic Gev :thumbup:

That makes it even more cool! Just takes you back in time! Thanks for the compliment my friend! :D
 
Thanks! I've been sorely tempted to pick up another one - those old growth covers are just fantastic!

I ended up carrying the Norfolk today. I love everything about this knife.

Beautiful knife, I love the Norfolk. I used to have a beautiful calico bone one that I regretfully sold for some much needed funds last fall.

Today I'm carrying my new Chestnut Gunstock. :)

That is a great looking knife John!

Carrying the #74 today.

 
I got me a Laquoile En Aubrac with horn handle. It is my third Laquoile, the first one I gave to a friend. This is more in the gentleman's knife category, the Robert David knife in picture is more of a user.

There are differences between the two. The most obvious is the fit and finish which in the Aubrac is better. Something of a surprise was the smooth action in the Aubrac, it resembles my Case full size trapper. None of the beartrap action of the R. David. This could be used by an elderly person with arthritic fingers, with the R. David I have to take care not to get bitten.

I really have to make the Aubrac it's own leather pocket sheath.

Thanks for the compliments on my lock back whittler.

We are getting a real winter this year in MT. These two knives, by two iconic makers, are with me today.

Roses are r̶e̶d̶ yellow,
Violets are blue,
Sugar is sweet,
And this GEC #66 - Calf Roper Slim is too.

Love the way those colors pop out, nice pic!



I haven't been too active on this thread or many others, this pneumonia has been kicking my butt for awhile. Just got some new meds from the doctor, so hopefully I can stop this thing shortly. This sickness has also curtailed my shop activities, and the wife is laying down a firm hand on me from going down there. Unfortunately, I am well enough to go to work and sit at a desk, sigh...

Anyway, my apologies to anyone who has projects with me, they are delayed some by this, but I will be back in the saddle soon!

Here's a semi-crappy pic of my carry today. I really like the small size of it and great blade shape. May have to buy it a new suit though....

 
The 2015 CSC Serpentine Jack and the Love Wolf/Loveless City knife, both slip joints sit in the leather sheath as a carry pair.
