You make it sound so easy, Alan!
Thank you, Jack. I assure you, Blade Rap is not referring to any musical ventures I might be entertaining...
...
I think I got that term right, I merely capitalized it to add some dramatic flair to my statement.
Thanks for writing nice about my knives; since I carry so many each week, usually everyone can find something to like.Will definitely post them, and since lefties aren't as common and Buck only recently started to produce a left handed leather sheath for them my pics may be the only pictures of such a combo on the forum.
Btw great combo you're totin' today![]()
Four fabulous knives, Vaporstang, but these two really made an impression!!
Congratulations on a phenomenal new knife, Pt-Luso! Striking stag, intriguing bolster "art", and unusual blade stamp!!The mail arrived, with my new Portuguese handmade knife.
This true work of art of the artisan Veríssimo in Miranda do Douro, has linerlock and stag hands!!!

Thanks, Jack; "classic GT line-up", "thematically diverse collection", and "random pile" are interchangeable phrases, I think.
Looks "toil-tolerant", Rachel!This pen to coping blade modification is surprisingly useful!

Yikes, a couple busy weeks and I've fallen 50+ pages behind in this thread!
I've mostly been carrying this #71 Bull Nose lately. It even tagged along on our home-scouting trip to Minnesota last weekend.

I'd like to see some more of this too. Very nice rustic look to it and a fine blade. Could you give any idea if it was very expensive or not?
