Thanks for the compliment, Ron. :)
Your Osage Orange 73 is such a memorable knife! :thumbup:

- GT

I just can't ever get enough of that beauty! I understand completely why you sought out backups. Great photograph !

Beautiful knife, Ron. I love the simplicity of the Tidioute trim, the wood and that pattern; it's a perfect combination (and definitely worth keeping backups). ;)

Gary, Gev and Barrett - Thank you all for the compliments on my OO73! ;)
 
Thanks Drew. That Days Work soup bone is a show stopper.

Ron, another OO beauty. You're the ambassador of OO. :D

Paul, that 56 is sweet. Seems like you're getting quite attached. :thumbup: :cool:
 
Just like yesterday, had to do a double take. Both nice.

This should cover my needs in the wilds of suburbia, lol.

Thank you!
I can't choose a favorite. :o

That pile side is the bee's knees. :cool:

Looks like a perfect pair! :thumbup:

Carrying my Ebony Crown Lifter today.

Like a dream come true. :)

Simplistic beauty on a glove. :thumbup:

I need to find one of those, beautiful knife.

All the best,
Stan

Thanks, Stan!

The #56 again for the day.

You say that as if it were a bad thing. :D
 
Bunch of awesome knives here today.

Tim - that's a gorgeous 38.

Paul - I LOVE seeing that 56 getting some pocket time.

I've got this recent addition with me today.

Nice! Why is it called improved trapper? I thought usually those had a second wharncliff blade?

Designers or makers use the "improved" name when they make changes to a basic pattern in a way they feel, well, improves it! Lol. Whether it's adding a blade, changing the blade shape slightly or changing the shape of the handle. In this case, Bret changed the frame slightly and also dropped the tip down on the blade from his normal pattern.
 
Thanks Dee. Even though the two sides are different in character, the thickness is the same and even which is important to me.
 

Gettin pretty attached to that one Jeff, I can see why:thumbup:


Nice Knife and picture of it Alan:thumbup:


So nice Bob:cool:


Wow Jake, STUNNING, just an amazing knife:thumbup:



Great picture Barrett, I worked sporting goods year's back for Galyans (now Dicks Sporting Goods) I sold hundreds of Nakona gloves, in MY opinion the best gloves made:thumbup:

Similar to yesterday.....

Yesterday and today, easy habit to get into Dee:thumbup: two beauties my friend.

I don't know about everyone else, but I am ready for the weekend!! :D Today was all OO Dixie.......... ;)

I'm with you Ron, let the weekend begin:thumbup: Those OO age so well, great knife buddy;)

Paul, that 56 is sweet. Seems like you're getting quite attached. :thumbup: :cool:

Thanks Bob, I had one when first released and sold it to Mink, regretted it ever since. John offered one up last week and I could barely type "I'll take it" fast enough:D

Paul - I LOVE seeing that 56 getting some pocket time.

Love the dogleg John, so happy to own one again, nice antique your carrying:cool:
 

I'm still looking for an American Whittler Chestnut 38, but I have the same one you do Tim and it's my favorite GEC. And, I have some pretty cool GECs if I may be so brash. Maybe I'll luck out but it's getting glum. At least I have a 98 and 13 American Whittler!

Paul you summed up the last few pages wonderfully. I concur entirely.

I owe a bit more detail on this one...it has removed all others from my pocket. One of our favorite porch pal's has hit his stride.

I couldn't agree more, Alan. :thumbup:
Stag is its beautiful-est when the handles are symmetrical and well matched (or as close as possible with it being a natural material).

Joe, what a BEAUTY. I saw you post it elsewhere and just by the covers thought it was one of Jareds. I see our fellow forum member and custom knife maker extraordinare, Evan crafted that stunning piece. Very very nice:cool::thumbup:

Definite favorite of mine also Joe. I am very blessed to have this one thanks to GuestWho101.
There were very few of the American Whittler version. Keep looking though. Never know when one pop up.

That is a truly gorgeous knife. Never seen that combo on a TC before. Thanks for posting.
