Gary, That Half Congress from leghog is a fine example of Case's ability to turn out a great knife, in my estimation. What a nice knife from a very generous guy.
Thanks, Gary.
You're right on all counts! :thumbup:
A 73 for the Saturday Stag and a Schrade Barlow generously gifted to me by Gasman1 . Much appreciated gift too , since I have looked for one of these Schrades for a while for my meager Barlow collection . A very well made knife that is in very nice shape too.
...
Thank you very much Dave ( Gasman1 )
Harry
You are very welcome Harry. :thumbup: It was like I sent it home.
Congrats on the fancy-bolstered Schrade, Harry!
Very nice of you, Dave! :thumbup: I really like that idea of trying to do what we can to get knives where they belong!
Kudos to you Gary for taking the time to make us feel good. Always look forward to your comments.
Thanks, Alan.
I always look forward to the photos everyone posts, because they make me feel good!
My Case Sowbelly in CV and chestnut bone struck my fancy this morning.
Standout sowbelly, Frank! :thumbup:
...
Thanks, Gary!
You're a wordsmith.
Another week of goodies. :thumbup:
Thanks, Dee. You keep posting inspirational knives, and I'll keep smithing some words!
I finally got around to making a good leather sheath for my imperial h6 so that's what I'm totin' today.
...
Handsome, well-made sheath you put together, H&S! :thumbup:
Thank you, Gary! The Kudu is intriguing and appealing. What is the closed length?
Thanks, Dean. The Kudu is huge: I measure 5.75" closed, 4.25" blade. But it is incredibly light with the plastic/fiberglass synthetic handle. I've been carrying it in my RFP for the past 3 days and haven't even noticed it. I really want to get an Okapi, but didn't have the patience to wait/look for one
, so I ordered the Kudu as a modern-day substitute for an old "3 star" Okapi.
Really enjoying everyone's postings. But hard to keep up! Totin' the middle knife today.

Quite the quality quintet, MJ71!! :thumbup:

Thanks, Steve.
Your phenomenal photo turned me green with envy!

I had my Ebony #74 in my pocket today. Made a Saturday trip to one of our favorite flea markets. Didn't find any old knives worth buying, but I did pick up this Colonial bottle opener.
...
Your ebony 74 is certainly dignified, Barrett, and that Colonial "church key" is a treasure!

Thank you so much for your kind words! May your week be filled with wonderment and bewilderment. Great weeks pocketfulls
You're welcome, Gev, and same to you.
The key for me is getting the proper mix of ingredients: I get nervous with TOO much bewilderment in my life!
Gary ( 5Q ) Haha, no steel belts but it does have extra flat protection.
That Case Humpback Whittler has G10 covers.
...
Today
Thanks for the informative replies, FBC.
That black box whittler is a gem, too! :thumbup:
...
LOL!
Thanks GT, make sure you enter my giveaway
Always nice to see your super Lambsfoot :thumbup:
...
Thanks, Jack. I need to stop pinching myself to see if your GAW is just a dream, and get myself signed up for a chance at a legendary luminous lambsfoot oxhorn! :thumbup:
Almost too dark and cloudy to take a picture this morning.
Travman, your Case canoe is outstanding; I'd love to hear some details about it and how you found it if you have time.
:thumbup:
Remington Barlow c. 1924 - 1933
That's a venerable, vibrant, vintage Barlow, Gev! Congratulations! :thumbup:
Thanks, GT! It's good to see that you're getting some time to spend here, too.
The case is a 6383 from my birth year that I picked up last fall. I've been holding off sharpening it while I play around with potential mods on a much newer model. I think I've just about got it figured out and decided I might as well carry it as-is in the mean time.
The Ettrick is an A. Wright sporting a generic "Made in Sheffield" tang stamp.
I always enjoy seeing your weekly carries and that Klaas canoe particularly caught my eye this time. :thumbup:
Thanks for the info about a couple of your fine knives, Greg.
And thanks for the Klaas compliment.
... I don't carry my 72 in natural stag near enough. And a early clip fixie from Mark...I modded this one some.
That 72 stag is smashing, Steve! :thumbup:
When I got up this morning I thought about what I wanted to carry today. I decided to drop something in my pocket that had a little
RED on it. Just for luck if you catch my drift!
I figured it couldn't hurt!
Hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday!
Bob and Paul I am sure we will probably be in touch later today.
Hardly seems fair that you're fortunate enough to own that premium pen knife AND it appears to be working its magic for a red team, Ron!
That's the Christmas peanut from your kids, right, Mike? VERY cool!
That's why I'll be carrying this one:
That's a gorgeous New Day, Nature Boy!! :thumbup:
Handling most of the kitchen duties for the past week were a Douk-Douk and a Chinese Laguiole. (I'm starting to think the latter is the best 7 euros I ever spent on a knife.)
