What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

It's pouring down rain today. Tornado warnings all around. Had to run pay off a bill and didn't think I'd get home before the bottom fell out. Barely made it.

So, a relaxing day in the recliner. Guess the wood splitting will have to wait. The fightin rooster with me again. I'm really digging this stockman. Contrary to the pic, it's actually a dark dark geeen.

I was on the second floor metal decking when the first lightning struck. That was a Code Brown moment. Made it back to the trailer complex before the bottom fell. Then, we all realized we were in, essentially, a trailer park in a wide open area with tornado sirens going off. Wind got up to about 40mph while hail pelted the cars but nothing worse than that, thankfully. Couple of guys had to shelter on the jobsite itself.

I'm glad you didn't get stuck in it! Enjoy that recliner.

Gorgeous bone on that Barlow, Gev!

The Texas Camp Knife is still filling my pocket.

That is a good looking knife, Buzz, but your photography makes it look superb!


Stunning, just stunning!!

A new Matt Bailey personal fixed blade in 1095 carbon with African Blackwood with my #47 Northfield Pruner.

The Matt Bailey is fantastically original, Paul! It really grabs the eye.


This useful TC is in my pocket today.

My gosh; glad to hear it sounds like you guys are okay. Stay safe down there in the southern part of the alley.

Nice pic of your Douk-Douk GT :thumbup:

Carrying these two favourites today :)



Thanks, Jack. :) Another lovely couple of knives you have today. That buffalo horn lambsfoot reminds me of an old Stephen Foster song:
I dream of Jeannie with the light brown hair
Borne, like a vapor, on the summer air


That's the Christmas peanut from your kids, right, Mike? VERY cool! :cool:
Thanks Gary (5K Qs)!
That is the Christmas peanut. Actually it has been in my pocket everyday since I got it. Today she road solo.[emoji108]
...
Thanks k5 .
I may be the only person who edc's one of these Imperial H6's, but I just love it.
...
Thanks so much 5K Qs. :-)

You're welcome, guys. I enjoy seeing people enjoying their knives! ;)

Great photo, Erik. And the equal-end symmetry of those Fremonts is certainly appealing! :thumbup:

...
Speaking of classy jacks,

I admire your ability to see everything in terms of black and white, Rachel! :D

Pocketful of dreams! Looking good, Buzz. :cool:

Me, I'm putting a new copper and carbon Mercator through its paces. Been procrastinating on writing a review.

I really like my carbon Black Cat, but that otter eating the fish is a real seeing point to me on the copper and brass versions! Look forward to your review, Zieg. :thumbup:

Fantastic jigged bone handles on that one, Gev! :cool: Belated birthday greetings as well. :o

These 2 today . Remington R3153 and Hibbard , Spencer , Bartlett & Co

Enchanting pair of vintage knives, Harry! I especially like that equal-end cattle knife with the acorn shield! :thumbup:

This is a Salamandra that my wife bought me from Spain. She's amazing. :D

My daughter has lived in Spain for almost 6 years, and I've developed a definite affinity for Spanish folders. Don't have a Salamandra yet. What are the covers on your handsome knife?

...
Carrying these two today :thumbup:



Those are a couple of remarkable knives, Jack! :thumbup: It sounds like you'd have benefitted from having a lock pick on the IXL today. :D Glad you got into your home eventually.

Trying out how mini-knife works for me at work. Bit too small for my taste, so I will be carrying these more on free time. :)
A.L., that Alox Minichamp looks ravishing! :cool: I carry a red celidor Minichamp every day, and often think about getting an Alox model, but I'm not sure I could give up the pen in the covers of mine.

Dynamite pair Tony, especially the stag.

The 66 is turning out to be a regular joined today the ebony 99.

Speaking of dynamite pairs, Alan, that black and yellow combo is explosive! :cool:

Very distinguished, tasteful, and tasty, Chui! :thumbup:

Your Barlow today exemplifies Textured Color, Dean! :thumbup: (How do you like your little Fenix?)


Stockman of the Week for me is a yellow Kutmaster with pen instead of sheepsfoot (thanks, Mike). One of my few yellow knives.

Hello Folks!

I haven't posted in a few weeks. I came down with an illness that seemed to be pretty serious. However, my latest blood work indicates everything has come back to normal.
Big relief!

There are too many pages of pictures to comment on but needless to say well done everyone!

I carried these two today.

Have a great day all!
 




The #85 and #38 make an excellent duo. Sadly I'll have to let them go to make room for the upcoming #13 knives though. I am very excited for those.

Beautiful knives all around!

LOL! Thanks GT, I haven't heard that song in years, my grandmother used to sing it! :D :) :thumbup: You may be interested to know that the object behind my Abbeydale is a crucible steel 'bonnet' ;)

Yes, I could have done with MacGyver to help me out! :D :thumbup:

Nice matching pair my friend :thumbup:

Early start for me tomorrow, and a long day, but I'll have this trusty Lambsfoot with me :) :thumbup:
