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.

Please excuse the 482, it's my only clipped oho user and I just don't carry it much anymore.
I carried it every single day for 2 years, but with you fine folks getting me more interested in traditional it has only seen about 2 weeks of total use in the past year and a half.
Bucks and Vics are fine things to have, but I understand your point. Who doesn't love a 119.

So can you folks see the image below?

My Churchill's riding along with me today.

Primo pair, Ron; something old, something new! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:

...
LOL! Very good GT! :D Thank you my friend, those are great pics of your birthday knives, and the Richartz knife is very cool :cool: :) :thumbsup:
Thanks for the compliments, Jack. :)

Nice to see some winter shots !
Thanks, Steve. :) Those were taken before the onset of the really bitter cold!

...
I'm getting back on track! View attachment 826661
That is so cool! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:
Thanks, r8shell. :) I have no idea how covers with such tiny details are made. :confused::eek:
Notable pair you had for Wooden Wednesday. :cool::cool::thumbsup: Is that Böker whittler the one that you made a shield for, AND the one that once sprouted a tree in April?? :confused::rolleyes:

...
With it's mammoth twin, need for doubles complete.

Chief, I was speechless when you posted one of these earlier (Tuesday?), and I'm absolutely catatonic at the sight of the pair!!! :eek::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

...
I have these two with me.

Well-groomed wood for Wednesday, Dylan! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:

Pruner handle lambsfoot today.

Your Lambsfoot is a looker, @strokednbored ! :cool::cool::thumbsup:

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.

Intriguing trio, Stuart! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool::cool: I deliberately stay ignorant about fixed blades, but the nearly perfect symmetry of your Cannady is fascinating! :thumbsup::cool:

GEC #12 Powderhorn Jack - I´m loving this knife & pattern
Very desirable knife, Andi! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool: Big 2-blade toothpicks really appeal to me.

Congrats on a gorgeous knife, @ArchiveMoto ! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:

I usually don't think of the Leatherman as a knife, but if I have a belt on it is there.

I apologize for my absenteeism. Good evening/afternoon/morning (pick yours), to all.

I’m really liking these Warthogs.

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"! :rolleyes:

That looks like a splendid old soldier, FBC! :cool::cool::thumbsup:

Fourteen and a half lustrum.;)
Thanks for expanding my vocabulary, oldmanrunning oldmanrunning ! ;):thumbsup::thumbsup:

Good day Harry, if my arthritis would let me I would bend the knee to a senior citizen.
