Very nice, Will. Their 115 year legacy is amazing to me, A neighbor of mine is from Titusville and goes home regularly. He remembers going by the Queen factory as a kid and scrounging through the scrap heap for blades. On a recent trip, he went by around noon and saw workers out in the yard for lunch in their dust covered overalls. They returned his wave and thumbs up. I need to ask him for any info that he has about this mess.Homage to Queen Cutlery: remembering some of their finest contract knives
You are about 1 lustrum younger than I .Fourteen and a half lustrum.
Bucks and Vics are fine things to have, but I understand your point. Who doesn't love a 119.
Good day Harry, if my arthritis would let me I would bend the knee to a senior citizen.You are about 1 lustrum younger than I .

So can you folks see the image below?
Great! I think I fixed my image posting issue then.
Here's what I carried today
I still couldn't see your photos after your original "fix", but I can see this Churchill pic! ETA: Oops, 1.5 days later the Churchill pic has gone rogue, too?!!?
My Churchill's riding along with me today.
Solid Sabre scout, Senhor Pinto!Today with a Sabre - Japan!!!
Primo pair, Ron; something old, something new!I’ve got these two along today!
Thanks for the compliments, Jack....
LOL! Very good GT! Thank you my friend, those are great pics of your birthday knives, and the Richartz knife is very cool
Thanks, Steve. Those were taken before the onset of the really bitter cold!Nice to see some winter shots !
Thanks, r8shell. I have no idea how covers with such tiny details are made.
Chief, I was speechless when you posted one of these earlier (Tuesday?), and I'm absolutely catatonic at the sight of the pair!!!...
With it's mammoth twin, need for doubles complete.
Well-groomed wood for Wednesday, Dylan!...
I have these two with me.
Your Lambsfoot is a looker, @strokednbored !Pruner handle lambsfoot today.
Intriguing trio, Stuart! I deliberately stay ignorant about fixed blades, but the nearly perfect symmetry of your Cannady is fascinating!These three today: a small bird & trout knife by the late Daniel Cannady, a recent Case sway back gent, and a Robeson barehead jack in strawberry bone from 1940-1964. I think that a prior owner tried to modify it into a whittler by filing the broken/worn pen into a coping blade. They did a fair job, as the tip is smooth and polished. Don't ask how I know that it is wicked sharp.

Very desirable knife, Andi! Big 2-blade toothpicks really appeal to me.
Congrats on a gorgeous knife, @ArchiveMoto !Loving my new Northfield SMKW SFO American Jack
Admirable pair of classics, @peanutsxx !I usually don't think of the Leatherman as a knife, but if I have a belt on it is there.

Welcome back, HST! Your Warthog has me looking at those models, but I can't make up my mind about which one to get; I'm even seriously considering the one with the "pin-up girl"!I apologize for my absenteeism. Good evening/afternoon/morning (pick yours), to all.
I’m really liking these Warthogs.

Notable pair you had for Wooden Wednesday. Is that Böker whittler the one that you made a shield for, AND the one that once sprouted a tree in April??

I like Sabres and own a few that I use regularly. They are not as handsome as the one that you show.
