@5K Qs All fine selections today, GT. They all seem to focus on function and simply so.

This one is a Christmas gift from my neighbor. Each year for the past several years, he goes to our local old-school hardware store and picks a Case knife out of the big floor standing display case as a present for me. I've explained the "coals to Newcastle" adage to him, but he says that he knows that I like and will use the knives that he gives me, so that's what he going to do. This year it's a Tony Bose inspired Sway Back Gent (T.B.61117 SS).

Just let me add. Some French cutlers refer to it as 'abeille' Bee, a honey-maker but other talk about 'mouche' a real fouler

Well, I stated lurking around here in 2014 when I bought my first traditionals off the exchange. My first post in the traditionals forum didn't come until 2.5 years later. Now, I have started selling my modern folding knives. Slowly but surely, this place got me and I couldn't be happier. I have two of my favorites with me today.

-6 F this morning and the birds are hungry. I've never seen a rainbow at this temperature, that I recall. There are very fine ice crystals in the air. Must be a refraction through them. Couldn't get a decent picture though.
Another little Ohta today.

Sweet pairing and great hat But that Ohta

Thanks, Gev! Little knives need some love too!
My wife bought me that hat years ago, Lord knows why. It's relegated to snow removal duties. My grandson gets a laugh out of it.

That's a great looking knife, Will! I've had my eye on those for years. I need to just do it one day soon. The 9 cm is just perfect for the pocket. Great pics!

I’ve been looking into sowbelly stockmans a lot lately and will pull the trigger on one if I can find one in decent bone and carbon blades. That one is gorgeous!
