Alox Knife of the Week is a 1986 Soldier (thanks, Ken):

- GT

Nice! I love the older Soldiers, especially with the hollow rivet. I've got a couple old Wenger Soldats, oldest is an 89.

Nice piece!

I'm a broken record.

I'm heading over to see ADEE early in the morning, got these two in my pockets already

Well, your broken record plays a really nice photograph.

Probably my favorite example of my favorite pattern. Case XX 3254

Carrying this new to me knife today. This knife represents a lot of "firsts" for me:

• First and foremost, it is my very first Case knife (More of my thoughts regarding that here: Let's see your Case knives, old to new.)
• It is my first Wood covered traditional folder (Walnut, I think?)
• It is also my first single blade (bareheaded?) Jack

It will likely become one of my favorite knives to carry, I am so impressed with it. It also most certainly will make me give older Case knives a closer look in the future.

What a beauty!

Thanks for noting my Joker, and that's a wonderful pair of knives you display, but I sure hope you had a more efficient tool for taking down a couple of trees!! I like the little saw on some SAK models, and it's really an eager beaver when it comes to gnawing wood, but I'm sure glad I had a 2' bow saw to help me take care of a bunch of oak limbs that came down in a recent storm!



This morning I put away the knives scheduled for last week and replaced them with this week's prescribed set. Here are some of the knives I'll carry all week. (They happen to be the ones in my "knife wallet" in my LRP.)
Stockman of the Week is a Rough Rider 4-blade stockman, in which the 4th blade is a bottle opener (thanks, Barrett):

European Knife of the Week is a Taramundi, the first knife I bought (in Sevilla) when I visited Spain a couple of years ago:

lol no I didn't use the farmer saw on the trees, but I find them very handy for getting into plastic packaging. A bow saw was a more efficient choice than a SAK I'm sure . Although whenever I hear the term "survival knife" I think of SAKs an scout patterns, not big fixed blades for some reason.

Terrific trio GT!

Outstanding combination!!!!

Thanks Buzz, much appreciated!

 

[Half/Stop]

Bob that's a nice Peachseed TC my friend and a super photo to boot!

Ron & 007hunter, that is a prime pair of stellar stag half-congress knives! GEC named that model "Clerk"? Very nice!

Thanks Gary! It is a Clerk.

My favorite of my wee knives with me today. Small enough to be comfy even in athletic shorts : )

Drew that's a nice Lick Creek TC! Nice colors on that Ragg Bone.

Today I got my #79 Workhorse out of the drawer a dropped it in my pocket.

Carrying a Dowell barlow and a new model from Bret, an EDC fixed blade.

That Barlow is a beauty!

That Barlow is a beauty!

Thank you kindly. It's a pleasure to own and carry.

New here. Carrying this knife that was found in a field at my uncles house. Was told by a co worker that it could be an old Case. Not really sure as I don't see any markings. Any ideas from anyone?

Thanks,

Troy

M Moose253 Sorry, Troy, can't see the image.

 

[Bugdoc]

That is an extremely good-looking Böker Barlow, Tom!



Olive wood Joker:

- GT

Thanks GT! I'm happy to report there's no Flitz embedded in the Boker scales. The sparkles in the pics I posted are pinpoint reflections of the polished bone.

First time I noticed the 'GT' on your Joker blade: patina?

A little relaxing with the sodbuster jr.

As fine as a Case be guys! (Always like a good Maduro myself too. )

Weeks beach vacation. 1054 is only folder I brought and my city knife is around here somewhere. 1054 will help me make pastalaya one night.

This, and a bottle of rum, is all I need for a week on the beach.

Gev, you are a lucky guy. Still keeping an eye open for 'the one'.

Troy, your pic isn't showing up for me.

Out in the yard tonight fighting off the skeeters. They're finally back in force after a few droughty summers a couple of years back. Have my Douk Douk on a longish lanyard looped around my belt: usually don't have to unclip it.

 

[Moose253]

Interesting. It shows for me. I found one marking on it. One of the blades has 7007 on it. Just cant find a Case logo on it anywhere. Here is a google drive link to a picture:

I agree.

Great Soldier there, GT. I'm getting back to basics, carrying the civilian equivalent today, the Pioneer. What a great knife.

And this one:

 

[Travman]

This Beagle is with me again today.

But such a groovy tune.
