Will, it is a neat little knife alright. The way it fits in hand, as you undoubtedly know, is without peer. And, the arc of it's broad belly makes sweeping cuts a snap. (I was doing just that this weekend, slicing open bags of mulch.)The Sharpfinger is a great knife and deserves a revival as it's so useful. I only have a modern Chinese made one as getting the US ones here in Europe is tricky & expensive, but it's not a bad effort either. What I'd really like is a top condition old one dressed with some very fine Stag slabs!
Regards, Will

Went with a couple blades that really don't get all that much pocket time.

I have been extraordinarily busy as of late and have had little time to check in as often as I would like. This thread is always a priority though, such lovely knives tend to get put on wondrous display.
This is simply just a terrific picture. Subtle, yet poignant. Just beautiful, thank you for sharing.
I keep telling myself I need to try out one of those 14s, they look to be superb knives despite their diminutive size. Yours is certainly a handsome little devil.
Always enjoy seeing your Scouts, Buzz. You always make them shine in your pictures.
Pictures don't get much better than this one, what a fantastic shot! And an exquisitely beautiful knife as well, you've done well at capturing its essence.
I have had these two knives with me over the weekend and into today. My apologies for the recycled pics, though. I haven't had a whole lot of time and the weather has been a bit finicky for good picture taking as of late.

Boker once again.

I was carrying these 2 Red Sawcut Northfield Barlows today
Until this package holding a VINTAGE CAMP TOOL arrived from Auckland , New Zealand from our friend Campbellclanman Duncan . Seeing that it may contain a vintage camp tool , I thought maybe an old Camp or Scout Knife . But instead I found this and it immediately went into my pockets after pictures .
CASE XX USA ; This is a knife that I have searched for locally for 3 years . My pictures really do not show how nice this one is . This also is another knife that is now made of Unobtainable .
Thank you so verrrry much Duncan . It is a real gem .

Beautiful photo of a great little knife! And yes, it’s as though these 25s were made especially for that pocket.

Yesterday and today. A old Richards camp knife.
Being lazy so sticking with this for the week.
You've got some great backdrops in your knife photos, donn!
That burly burlap micarta makes even a WLST look ultra-manly, Barrett!
I like the Case pen knife a lot. I'm developing quite a strong preference for knives with pen configurations over those with jack configurations; I still like a Case Peanut, but I like the pen knife even more.
Thanks for noticing my canoes.
GT's Book of Alliterative Comments on Knives (or GT-BACK) will be available at Amazon any day now!
GT, it looks that way because the WLST is ultra-manly, of course!
(Seriously, though, the #25 is by far the beefiest "small" knife I've used, which is why it's one of my favorite patterns!)Good eye on the ring, Paul (but the "youthful looks" comment makes me wonder if you're due for an eye exam
Hey, 1969 is the same year my dad graduated high school!
Just outta the ol mailbox
#77 in Pine Green Jig Bone.
Beautiful knife, Paul! I have that same one, but yours seems to have a lot more brownish-green at the corners, which I really like! Mine is more of a faded pea-green.
r8shell, your fish and chips patina is looking good!
October 16th:
2013 GEC #68 Pony Jack and 1903 tiny, leather notepad atop the late 1800s Railyard Tool Chest in which the note pad was discovered.
P., that notebook and (especially) the handwriting sample are phenomenal! Exactly 114 years old today! Incredible!
Today - the 25 pattern; custom-made for the tiny Levi's watch pocket.
Great shot of your sawcut #25!
Harry, that pair is excellent, but the trio is just outstanding!!
I've been carrying my OD Green Bull Nose for a few days. Love this knife!
