Will and Ron, congrats on those superb black box Winchesters that have come into your hands! Classic stockman, Ron! Will, that's a generous gift from MMM! Is that model #2857? I also received that as a gift (thanks, Paul), and have seen it referred to as a teardrop jack, bullet jack, and dogleg jack; now you've added "candle-end" to my lexicon! Do you know where that name comes from? Here's a photo of mine:

Thanks Gary! I was able to pick this one up on the exchange and I am pleased so far!

Thanks for the kind remarks about the whittler I posted back before everything changed!
Joey, I'm glad you all are helping to make the new kid on the block feel welcome. ;)
FBC, your whittler is much more heavy-duty than mine - nice!
Paul Hilborn, thanks for your whittler comment, too; somehow it didn't get included as I intended. (I'm afraid it's going to take me a while to get used to the way the new website works. :eek:)

Pt-Luso, it's good to see this knife again! What does the "art" on the blade represent?

Thanks for the Vic magnifier info, Dean. With regard to "great minds", I think the same day you and Ron carried ebony TCs, you and I carried red Cadets! :eek: Nice couple of knives you have in this photo from whenever it was!


VERY Nice! Do you think it would be hard to find them with a "51"? :rolleyes:


That's a phenomenal "church knife", Jeff!

Cool knife, warm bread - MMMM!

Here are a couple of knives I carried this week (actually last week, I suppose) that I hadn't displayed before BF went on a brief hiatus.
In my watch pocket were the scrimshaw Rough Rider small stockman (thanks, r8shell) and a Robt. Klaas small canoe:

Two of the handiest items in the world, a knife and a handkerchief, pair nicely with a good mystery novel.
Happy Easter to everyone on Bladeforums and nice knives to everyone as well! I hope you all had as good a day as I did. If you got to spend some time with family and friends while enjoying some delicious food then I'm happy for you. Also you got to carry some nice knives from what I see posted here, so that's a plus!

Having ended the experiment and going back to my sinfull ways as an incurable knife knut, I have my daily rotation with me. In addition to my ever present Wenger SI in its belt pouch with the LED light, I have my old yellow peanut back in my right pocket. My classic is back on my keyring, and I feel like all is back as it should be. And in memory of my dear old Uncle Paul, I even tucked a very old Christy knife in my tobacco pouch, just in case.

What are you guys carrying today?

is this traditional anymore?

Not by the definition of traditional used for this sub-forum.
From the guidelines;
"Modern locking mechanisms such as Walker liner locks, pocket clips, holes / studs to allow one hand opening are all out. (Traditional liner locks, such as the lock on a TL29, are in.) Add a clip to a stockman, and it needs to be posted elsewhere. By the same token, if it is traditional except for a clip and you remove the clip, feel free to post it here."​
