Poetry in text and knives, Gev. Great photo of your classic beauties. :thumbup:
Today's carry is a Camillus pearl whittler and a TC sheepfoot.
for me and just take in its beauty.
Increasingly, I am carrying a fixed. I love it and never thought I'd enjoy one as much as I do this one. I've abused it, loved it, and it just begs for more. This is Lon's forged 3V and it's done superbly. I have yet to make it dull or come across a task it couldn't handle well.
With its companion today.
Enjoy the day everyone.
Paul
Lovely orchard gem indeed. Thank you my friend
Absolutely beautiful :thumbup:
Hope everyone has a good Friday, and an even better weekend :thumbup:
Pre posting for tomorrows carry. Could be my most favorite vintage Jack Knife. An equal end Spear/Pen KABAR. Amazing bone covers, a shortened main but both blades SOLID as can be. Worn smooth over the years, plus a wrap around spring on the pen side:thumbup:
Thanks for the positive comments on my Land Shark, Bob & Tom; it's certainly a distinctive knife....
That is a super cool Taylor-Schrade GT
These two for me today (always feels weird posting a knife with an upside down shield for some reason).
Of course, my eyes are drawn more to the Queen scout. If the upside down shield bothers you, why not turn the knife around? Or is the bail on the left even weirder?? Jeff and Dean, thanks for the Colt stag compliments. Colt had several stag knives about a year ago that I thought were quite nice, and now Colt, as a knife brand, has apparently gone belly-up. Too bad; I thought their knives were very solid and well-made....
Thanks, Gary. I bought the Schrade a while back and know nothing about it except how good it looks. There is no model number or any other markings except on the main blade tang. It may have been an SFO for somebody?
Your Colt canoe is a great looking knife, especially the stag. :thumbup:

What a phenomenal, inspiring knife, Paul! :thumbup:Pre posting for tomorrows carry. Could be my most favorite vintage Jack Knife. An equal end Spear/Pen KABAR.

Thanks, Jack. I suppose if I were a "normal" person, the Land Shark would be a very serviceable, functional knife. But since I now have what some might call an "abnormal", and even unhealthy, interest in knives, my expectations of a knife may be too lofty!...
Nice line-up GT, how do you find the Land Shark? :thumbup:

Having a very busy week here. Slipping this Anchor Knife in my pocket again today, afraid I've not had a chance to take another pic
By nature, I apparently prefer knives with more than one blade. And I'm most confident using a spearpoint blade; this lambsfoot blade on the Land Shark is a novelty that I'm still exploring. I do like the placement of the EO notch, even though it seems unnecessary for opening the blade; it's a comfortable rest for my middle finger while using the knife.Outstanding photo of a noble oldie, Buzz! :thumbup:...
I'm back to the Camillus engineers knife today.
What a contrast! Alan, I think I have a good idea of the size of your impeccable Case medium stockman, so that Lionsteel must be a HUGE knife!...
Today, I've got Mutt and Jeff. A Rogers jigged bone medium stockman and a Lionsteel Opera lockback.
