My carry for the day.

That green bone is gorgeous! Today I grabbed my Rigid popcorn stag sowbelly.

Carrying this old Utica TL 29 the last couple of days.

Been about a hundred pages since I dropped in here this one has been in my pocket for some weeks now, these days I tend to fall into carrying a knife for extended periods, and the rest get occasionally fondled and admired, at least the ones within easy reach.

That is some very pretty stag...nice!

 

[T. Erdelyi]

That would be a Camillus-manufactured Case scout knife. Depending on what year it was made in the 80's, it could even be the same #5779 pattern as my stag scout. The only difference would be the main blade, bolsters, and possibly the pins. If it has a longer flathead screwdriver, it's probably built on the old Camillus #14/4 pattern, the predesessor of the 5779 pattern.

I gotta look now, I'll let you what I see and post a pic.

Jeff, Do you have a photo showing the etch on the spey blade? I spent a few years in St. Louis.

I had glennbad put ebony scales and rat tail bolsters on a GEC 47. The shield is like what is on some on knives of this pattern that were found on the steamship Arabia wreck. I'll have to get better pictures, I don't know why the bolster looks so yellow, it is the same as the shield. What do you think?

Back to the Churchill.

 

[black mamba]

Here you go, Jake. I got this a month ago at a knife show at the Carpenter's Hall on Hampton Ave., near where the old Arena was.

The brassy yellow color is probably an artifact of reflected light from a surface nearby... Also, was the photo taken late day or early morning? My bet would be the wall or building reflected in the bolster...

I thought it WAS brass! Maybe a reflection from that copper coin underneath causes this optical illusion?

My carry for the day.

The Congress is not usually a pattern I take much interest in, but I think that one is absolutely beautiful, stunning bone and nicely threaded bolsters

I'm so glad you've taken to the pattern Duane

Thanks! It didn't look quite like this when I got it, the middle "dog head" flat part is what was revealed when I sanded down a rather high ridge , as it was a little uncomfortable in the pocket. I think it looks kind of cool now.

I've only just noticed that! It's certainly unique my friend

Very nice, and Glennbad has done a great job, as always Isn't the yellow just the brass in the nickel silver (edit - couple of the bolsters in my pics below look yellow, though both pics are filtered)?

Treating myself to a brace of Lambsfoot knives today Have a good Friday folks, the weekend is nearly here
