That lion steel roundhead is a beautiful barlow, btw is that your EDC for today?
I'm still enjoying my sowbelly stockman long weekend, but I pulled out another knife "for old times' sake" today. One of my sisters sent all the siblings email yesterday with pictures of the farm on which we grew up. My brother-in-law apparently had agricultural business near the old farm last week, and decided to stop by to see what it currently looks like. (My dad sold the farm almost 30 years ago.) No one was home, but that didn't stop BIL from taking photos anyway.(I guess he left his card and a note.) Here's the barn where I learned the meaning of "work"; how's that for Labor Day?
Below the barn pic is a pic of the knife I always used growing up on the farm.

The Roundhead is great. I knew I would like it when I reserved it months ago, i heard a lot of praise right after the release and I was still positively surprised when I received it!That lion steel roundhead is a beautiful barlow, btw is that your EDC for today?

Thanks, Jack. I like that whittler so much I have been thinking about picking up another to have as a back up. Then the logical part of my mind figures this one will probably serve me just fine for the rest of my life.... but I will probably buy another anyways.
The 804 is just a great pattern and your picture shows that one off very well.![]()
Schrade Walden 804 today.
It looks like you are going to need a bigger box soon.Decisions, decisions...
