Not your typical bucket o' knives :D have a great Thanksgiving. We had the grandkids stay over last night, I wish I had a tenth of their energy.

So thankful to own such beautiful tools as these.
So excited to be working on this Stanley no. 7 21". I picked up this huge plane for only 15$. It isn't broken at all and I think once I clean it it'll be ready to put to work as my first jointed. I also picked up these stanley measuring tools. They're sweet too! I love old tools.

Your knife and old tool photos are always a treat, jak!
 
Thanks for the encouraging words, Tom, and congrats on your two new acquisitions!! :thumbsup::cool::cool::thumbsup: I think I could be perfectly happy just collecting Farmer variations (although, surprisingly, I currently have exactly none :eek::confused:).

My stockman this week is an Uncle Henry (thanks, Dean):

My canoe this week is a Taylor-Imperial cracked ice model:

My miscellaneous knife this week is an old E.C. Simmons Keen Kutter (thanks, Mark):

Thanks GT! No farmer?? That is ....... untenable. Expect a PM from me :).

Beautiful combination! A good combination too. I'd love to be able to carry my Patriot here but unfortunately it has to be kept for the woods.

Thanks Pomsbz! I’d be a little lost without my daily fixed blade, although sometimes I think I’d be just fine with a SAK. In my home state of Missouri we can “conceal” up to a 4 inch blade; anything other than that has to be in plain view. Why the laws are that way is perplexing to me :).

Same knives for me today, but a different photo (L.T. Wright patriot and a copper farmer).

Carrying these fairly new to me Stag covered Barlows today just because I can . The Henckels was found at a Flea Market and the other one is a re-covered Old Cutler from Paul Hilborn . I really can not tell you how much I like this Old Cutler . These two knives will never get carried without a pocket slip either .

I'm glad your internet is up and running again, Jack. Nice pair today!

Thanks Gary, unfortunately it nose-dived again sjhortly after I posted! Connection is still so bad I can't upload pics :(

Thank you Jack! I couldn’t be more pleased with my Guardian Lambsfoot!:thumbsup: This one and Midnight are both beauties in my eye!:)

That's great to hear Ron :) :thumbsup:

Will do Jack. I'd love to meet you and Donn, and other locals. I'm just know that I'm going to be subject to the dictates of She Who Must Be Obeyed, so I probably won't have much leeway. But maybe a short train trip to a pub could be granted! This would be sometime next August. Thanks very much!

I understand my friend :) Be great to meet up if it's possible, and please let me know if I can help in anyway :thumbsup:

Very cool :cool: :thumbsup:

Nice mermaid opener!!
The lambsfoot aint too shabby either!:thumbsup:

Thanks a lot Mark, the opener was included in a care package @Padruig sent me recently :) :thumbsup:

What a pocketful! :eek: :cool: :) :thumbsup:

I am wishing all y'all a happy and healthy Thanksgiving. Encouraged by a few denizens of this thread, I am putting a couple of my carry knives to culinary capers today. Just collected some honey mushrooms (from the wilds of my backyard) and will break them down for mushroom gravy to serve tomorrow with sausage and cornbread dressing. Also have my Queen Country Cousin as a back-up.

Sounds tasty Stuart :)

Good morning, everyone!

I'm afraid the last week or so has found me quite busy and I have not had a lot of time to post much lately. Everyone is and has been carrying some very fine knives though! These two are indicative of what has been residing in my pockets as of late and today is no exception.

And since I am in quite the good mood today, as I am finishing out the work week and am very much looking forward to an extended holiday weekend, please enjoy this tune from one of my very favorite fiddlers. If you are in sore spirits, this will surely lift them up!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!



Have a great Thanksgiving my friend, and thanks for the tunes :) Beautiful knives :) :thumbsup:

Thanks, Jack; you're toting a premium pair yourself! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup: I hope your internet woes are short-lived! :thumbsdown:

My Euro knife this week is an A. Wright & Son stag senator (thanks, R.c.s):

My Peanutish knife this week is a Remington peanut:

Primo stag Harry :) :thumbsup:
 
Thanks, r8shell, although evidence suggests the handles of that Keen Kutter are cocobolo.

Sensational pair you've selected for Thanksgiving week! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:
I hope your brothers like seeing the old Forest-Masters; my first knife was one like the black one!

Ah well, if it's dark enough, I call it ebony. I ain't no arborologist :p

Your Forrest-Master looks to be in better shape than these. After I pick up brother #2 from the airport tonight, I expect we'll use our campers to open some bottles. :D
 
Imagination is funny, it makes a cloudy day sunny
Makes a bee think of honey just as I think of you

Imagination is crazy, your whole perspective gets hazy
Starts you asking a daisy "What to do, what to do?"

Have you ever felt a gentle touch and then a kiss
And then and then, find it's only your imagination again?
Oh, well

Imagination is silly, you go around willy-nilly
For example I go around wanting you
And yet I can't imagine that you want me, too
