Todays carry. How was your easter, mine was really good?

Beautiful knife HFinn
My Easter was pretty good. Still going on sort of.

Here ya go GT......
not perfect, but better than the plain white it was.

Thanks again for the picker Jack Black.

Another nice jigging job.
Did you use Rit dye to get that color, and if so, what colors combined to get that tone?

Woke up to 6 inches of snow so another indoor shot. Apparently it's still winter in Minnesnowta

And yet another nice old Camillus!

Sorry about your stubborn winter. Spending the week in Colorado where it’s really pleasant (at least until you get high up into the mountains...).
Heard from my folks it’s a bit grim back in Illinois.

Stuart, I have the stockman mate to your Boker congress, and they are beautifully made knives!

I like the rope/knavy knife.
I’m really drawn to this pattern lately.
Even if I get there by reprofiling a worn or abused hawkbill into the sheepsfoot shape.

Today finds these two in my pockets: a Boker model 5464 medium congress (3 3/4") and a KA-BAR large gunstock trapper (3 5/8")with jigged Ka-wood covers and "KA-BAR Knife Collectors Club 1980" etch on main.

The jigging on that congress is amazing!

Just got a 78 in the mail yesterday! A bladeforums score. My daily has a buddy for the day but only cause I couldn't get a decent look last night.

 

[traumkommode]

Gotta show her off

Woodies, with a picture my 10-year-old (11 in May) drew earlier this year in his art class.

Your first stockman?? Cool! What do you think of the pattern?

I’m loving it. The size works for me. It is a little bulky for me when wearing slim cut dress pants, but just right for after work when I’m wearing work pants or jeans. Originally I only wanted to carry single blades for the slimness. I didn’t want anything bulkier in the pocket. Then I branched out to double bladed knives on a single spring which are also nice and slim like the canoe patterns. Then I bought a three spring GEC 79 Workhorse whittler and started carrying that in a small belt sheath. Once that barrier was crossed the door was open to all sorts of multiple blade knives. Maybe it was better for my wallet when my tastes were more limited. This stockman was nice because the previous owner did all the break in work.

This is the kmife that made me realize I can enjoy three blade types at one time. The 66 Stockman is a much more pocket friendly knife that this 79.

Thanks, guys. Boker calls those "improved Stag" covers, which I take is a reference to the jigging pattern since the main blade etch clearly states that they are BONE. I like that stockman, Jeff.

You're very welcome my friend, nice to see it, and your mod, excellent work

You did well!

I decided to get out my only blue traditional for the Easter holiday and have been carrying and using that the past few days. Easter ham (and ham sandwiches and ham salad) have added some nice colors to the blade.

Excellent, Dean!!

My Peanut-ish Knife of the Week is a Case SS brown delrin peanut (thanks, Cory):

- GT

Thank you, Gary. Premier peanut you have there!

Phenomenal, preeminent Presidential, Dean!!!

Big Knife of the Week for me is a clip/pen Imperial toothpick (thanks, Dave):

- GT

Thanks again, Gary! Nice toothpick; just how big is it?

For me today, an antique yellow TC sheepfoot born in 2015.

 

[Pàdruig]

I hope everyone had a great weekend and a grand Monday.

Carrying these two today.

 

[Signalprick]

Totin' the #78 again on this miserable murky Tuesday.

 

[Old Engineer]

Carried these to the YMCA and then to coffee with our friends . Only took the 77's into the Y though . Sorry for the crappy photos . Rainy day here .


The new #43

Thanks, Barrett. I actually use a thesaurus quite infrequently. "Pulchritude" is a word that has stuck in my mind since high school Latin classes, and "salubrious" is a word @Gevonovich taught me (or I stole from him ).

Didn't mean to underestimate your vocabulary, GT!

Woke up to 6 inches of snow so another indoor shot. Apparently it's still winter in Minnesnowta

Being new here, I just assumed that this was spring in Minnesota. Nice looking bone on that Camillus Barlow!

I'm carrying my NCM #71 Bull Nose today.

Enjoying the sunshine with my new micarta 43 before the rain comes back tomorrow.

The shield on that KA-BAR has to be the manliest shield ever to adorn a knife!
