That is a fine little Pemberton my friend . Them and the 25's are very nice little knives . I wish that I had more of both of them .Pembertons are my new 25's. I can't get enough.View attachment 777837 View attachment 777836
Your Rams horn knives all look pretty nice GT !!! That Buck Canoe looks very nice .That SAK always makes me smile, HST; gonna have to get one, but can't make up my mind about my favorite version.
Thanks for the info, Harry; I hope you show off the cane when you complete it.
Thanks for the follow-up, Alan; very classy knife!!
Congrats on the charismatic Case canoe, The Fort; can't lose when you carry canoes!
Thanks, Dean.
Congrats on the VERY handsome (and useful, I'll bet) Harness Jack, Paul!!
Couple of pleasing daily doubles, Tom!Always good to carry a steak knife in case some beef is placed before you.
The Primble scout and the Great White BSK are both winners!!
Stellar stag on your 85, Harry!!Is a clip blade unusual for that model? My (probably selective) memory thinks of those teardrops as having the big spearpoint.
That braiding looks marvelous, Gev!!(As does the Remington BSA!
)
Cool story, and I think that's a superior look for the shield!!
The ornate lambsfoot and simple Squirrel make a fine couple, Jack!
You may be right about the influence Charlie C. has had on American presidents!Didn't Teddy Roosevelt adapt Charlie's slogan, "Speak softly and carry a big Pruner"??
Hope you get your neck pain straightened out soon, Will.(I've had fewer occurrences of neck pain since I started taking daily doses of Omega-3/fish oil - but it's not a controlled experiment.
) That Tacosa and sheath are outstanding!!
Your stag 83 makes me consider searching for a similar lockback!
Excellent, Randy!
I seem to be experiencing deja vu, Jer!
That's worth showing a time or two!
Rachel, that looks like a combo that proclaims, "We don't need no stinking moderns!"
Intriguing knife, Z!!
Another radiant knife, Steve!!
Congrats on picking up that fantastic Uncle Henry, Grateful!!How big is that knife? Is it the Uncle Henry version of the 18OT Mighty Mite?
You certainly have a lot of fantastic knives, old-timer!!
Stunning, Jake!
OK, I have to get some breakfast now, Ron!!
Good to hear that shenanigans are in your future.What goes around, comes around!
What's the story with that Vic??!??

Nice example. I kinda miss mine (similar blacks and browns in the grain), but I know it went to a good home.
I was able to read about it some with a name. Similar to a plane, yet different. I'd imagine that by varying the angle one can take off quite a bit of material at a stroke, but what about finer work?That is a Draw Knife . They are an OLD TOOL , but still a very useful tool for some jobs .

Indeed. That Dunlap makes my Dunlap look like...well...mine looks nice too, but nowhere near as unique or spectacular as that one.
Using the Draw Knife is still new to me , so I am not as skilled with it as I would like to be . I can see that someone who has used them a lot could do some pretty fine work if he kept the blade sharp . Some people do develop some amazing skills with tools . I am working with it on Oak right now and I am not trying to take off a lot of material with one stroke .I was able to read about it some with a name. Similar to a plane, yet different. I'd imagine that by varying the angle one can take off quite a bit of material at a stroke, but what about finer work?
