Phenomenal pair, Ron! :thumbsup::thumbsup: Choice stag on the lambsfoot, and dynamite color, jigging, and shield on your Norfolk! :cool::cool:

You'll have a lot of disappointed guessers if you lose it prematurely, Will! :D:D Quintessential stockman! :cool::cool:

I kickin' back today with a couple of regular old jacks: a Case 02 from 1920-1940 and a Case 35 from 1940-1964. I rarely ask them for more than they can handle.

Thanks, GT. That RR stockman looks very useful and a fine carry.

Thanks, Jack & Stuart; I agree that the RR medium stockman has almost all the features I desire in a stockman pattern. I think I ordered one after being impressed by Blake the Blade's pics of his! :) Novel combo of knives you've selected today, Jack! :cool::cool:

Appreciate the nice comments GT!!! Really enjoy your posts and photos, what a wonderful collection you have:cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:
Thanks for the kind words, @007hunter . :) The variety of knives I have certainly fills me with wonder! ;):cool:

Cool pic, Shawn!! :cool::cool: The Craftsman Barlow is looking good, and the angle has me wondering if I've ever seen those covers before. :confused:

...
Thanks Gary! I’m waiting for spring to get sprung!:eek:
...
I hear you, Ron! ;)

Just pearl today. Prolly for the week.

I'm enjoying Pearl's working vacation with you, @SVTFreak ! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:

I thought you might be "experienced enough" to make the connection! :p:thumbsup:

Started outside to get some pictures for Two TEW's Tuesday but never went off the back porch . I know this is nothing as compared to what you folks out East are getting . But 15 minutes before this there was no snow on the ground and the sun was shining

Two Taylors Eye Witness : Both with a Lambfoot Blade

As always, I look forward to two TEWs Tuesday, too, Harry! :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Still going with these two.

Does that mean you're still fighting a cold and staying in, mostly? Delightful pair of knives, Jeff. :cool::thumbsup:

I like your bold black and white choices, Jack; no shades of gray in your perspective today! :thumbsup:;)

My bailed non-SAK this week is a red jigged bone Rough Rider camp knife:

Thanks, GT! I love that huge blade on the MAM. Looks like you can get a lot of power behind the point of that one. What's the closed length on that guy?

The Craftsman is one of three barlows that I had glennbad recover for me. Here's a pic from when I first got it back that shows off the deeply jigged deeply Amber bone.

Some of my past posts have been recycled, so the number is exaggerated. I'm still unboxing knives that my stepfather left to me, so I don't really know what I have. Cataloging them is a constant chore, with some surprises. Maybe I'll find that stockman that you envision. To that end, I'll keep posting them. I do like that captivating canoe that you just posted, and that MAM looks very handy around the house and garden.

That's a beautiful Barlow there.
 
Nice knives and pics today, folks!
I'm patiently waiting for the snow to stop so I can clean up the driveway and walks.
I have Wooden Wednesday and Stag Saturday covered. I'll have to work on the others..

Very nice Gary !!!! I enjoy seeing your Stags .

Harry
 
Thanks, pmek5 pmek5 ! Glenn really knocked that one out of the park. I was so happy that he could reuse the stamped bolster, and he left the perfect amount of patina on the blades. It, along with the BF TC that Randy gifted me, are two of my favorite and most treasured knives (and obviously my favorite barlows).
 
Wonderful jigging on the Half Hawk, Stuart!

Does that mean you're still fighting a cold and staying in, mostly? Delightful pair of knives, Jeff. :cool::thumbsup:

No, mostly over the cold now, just a slight cough remains. We thought winter was done around here, but then two days ago we got 3" of snow and the temp dropped to mid 20s. Today it's back into the mid 50s. That's the Midwest for you.
