What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[BigBiscuit]

Thanks for the compliments and likes fellas. Just a Beer Scout transformation. I had a larger lanyard tube put in as well. I don't particularly care for bails, but I sometimes like a lanyard tied on. This one just came back to me in the mail today.
Here ya go Buzz.

 

[blademan 13]

Very nice, Bob. It's a winner for sure

 

[5K Qs]

23 and my trusty 98

Amazing, VH! You've got a lot of linear inches of blade in that pair!

I am so grateful for having joined with Bladeforums since day one. And it keeps getting better.
Thank you Darren for reaching out to my WTB thread.
He kindly hooked me up with this Montana Workhorse Whittler. I Love It.

Congrats on the Montana Workhorse Whittler, Methuselah!! And +5K on your sentiments about BF!

...
Thanks GT! That work knife looks handy, what is the blade shape and length?

A custom from forum member Shaerk and a farmer today.

Fascinated by the "grain" in that fixed blade handle, Tom, but if I was going to steal one of those knives, I'd go for the Farmer!
The RR work knife is basically a sodbuster jr., with drop point blade and 3.5" closed length. The edge to spine height of blade (and handle) is probably a bit smaller than a Case SBJr.

...
That Beagle looks perfect for the task. I've got similar blades, but on a #09 sleeveboard pen.
...Plus some horn....

I admire how much your admiring your new gifts, r8shell! 3 days in a row for this stellar pair??

Carried my old Ulster and my Hartkoph around Salzburg today . Tomorrow we head back home .

Harry

Hope you have a safe and hassle-free return trip, Harry! Looks like you had a fantastic time! Thanks for the pics you sent!

Carrying this Carl Schlieper today

Wow, Ramrod, that's a commendable knife in myriad ways!

Great pic, Travman! I double dog dare you show us a nicer knife!

...
I'm off to York tomorrow, to see some Viking treasure in the Yorkshire museum Thought I'd carry my ebony Lambsfoot again, with a Vic Bantam I've not carried in ages Have a great weekend everybody
...

Cool pics of dapper knives, Jack! Bantam and ebony lambsfoot both look great!

Going all Buck this week, right down to the coffee mug!

310 Whittler, 301 Stockman, mug from Deneen Pottery.

Love the Buck Bonanza, Ratbert! I don't think I've ever seen a Buck whittler in my long, but sheltered, life!

Vintage EZ open Schrade Cut Co Jack today...

Paul, let join the throng that has been mesmerized by your marvelous knife!!!

Thanks for the likes on this Le Thiers by Chambriard, she's a beauty for sure and carrying her today as well;

Ooh La La, Gary! That knife is remarkable in its sophisticated beauty!!

Old "copperhead" Queen barlow from 1972...

Don't think I've ever noticed a Barlow bolster like yours with the copperhead lump, Atiger!!

Thanks gary, that's a bummer about the back springs. If I see a good one show up, I will be sure to let you know.
That is a sweet Sowbelly ya got there.

Thanks for the kind words, FBC! FWIW, here's a pic of my big Kutmaster stockman with the busted springs. Second pic shows current "natural" position of blades when held spine-up :

Graduation Day for daughter # 2. (That's 2/2 that have left the nest.) Gave here a Bucklite for camping, along with mine for the day.

Congrats to your daughter and to you and the rest of your family, Tom. The school where I work had graduation this weekend, too, and I had lots of social commitments yesterday and today, but it's fun to meet some parents and to celebrate the grads moving on to a new stage of their lives!

Remarkable knife, Bill! What a looker!

...
These are what I carried in the past few days.

Have a great day all!

Ken K.

Spectacular sextet of knives, Ken! Ranking those would be quite a challenge!

An A. Wright Buffalo Horn Lambsfoot seemed like the perfect accompaniment for a visit to Maker Faire today.

Handsome horn lambsfoot, Greg!

Outstanding mod, Bob!

Still pretty nervous about carrying this one that I won in a GAW earlier this year (thanks, Jake), but I figured graduation is a special occasion that deserved a special knife:

[BigBiscuit]

Thanks Jamie.
And thank you Gary. Nice 77.

Thanks, the lines do flow nicely

I'm trying to stick with a knife through the week, and it's easier when they're something new. (not to mention being such kind gifts) I've got a few old ones I've been meaning to do some sharpening on, so I'll probably change things up tomorrow.

I love these lambs foot knives by A Wright & sons. I have been drooling over them for awhile on here . Just waiting save up and order me one.

 

[rockman0]

Camco was the low end of the Camillus knives but I really like this one!
It stays on the coffee table for opening mail and beers plus the dogs like to chew on it before I run them off.

 

[Bugdoc]

GT Thank you for the warm thoughts. I recall you saying not too long ago something to the effect you didn't know quite what to do with a Barlow. Glad to see you rocking that beaut today!

Just carry it spine down....
That Barlow is sweet piece!
Good on ya, Jake!

Totin' the LB 5 today.

It's gorgeous. All of that real estate really shows off the micarta. And that large lanyard tube totally seals the deal.

 

[Polynikes01]

My first Beer Scout purchased here on BF
Loving the knife, but wishing the original owner didn't remove the bail. GEC will replace it for $15 but it requires sending the knife in. Anyone know where I can get a replacement?

 

[Campbellclanman]

I carry these two together on a regular basis, both of these were received by me when I was overseas, and both were gifted to me by two great friends, which I love to think about as I carry their gifts to me throughout the day......

 

[Will Power]

Bob That micarta is elegant but tough, a fine combination

Duncan Very much like that stainless 15 you show, I have the same knife and the Winterbottom type bone and shield really pair well, excellent food knife too! Thanks for showing it mate

Regards, Will

 

[Jack Black]

Thanks, Jack. Have fun tomorrow!

Thanks r8shell, I had an excellent day

Vintage EZ open Schrade Cut Co Jack today...

Ivory today, waiting on the rain to start. Supposed to get 3-4 days of it.

Beautiful knife

City Knife and a beer scout today, hope everyone is having a great weekend.

Another smashing twosome Tom
