What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Peregrin]

Thanks Gary. So much so that I stopped lusting after a Halfrich.

joeradza you still need a Halfrich someday.

Alan, I gotta agree with John on this!
This pic was from 3 weeks ago, but there's once again snow on the ground here, so it could have been taken today! Gettin old!

I'm heading south (Mallorca) for a week with lovely mrs. Finn. My daily carry during this time will consist of a Swiss army knife and Otter brass lockback (since both are stainless I don't have to baby them too much). See you!

Thank you! My knee is shot but I try my best to enjoy the scenery. Will get the knee operated in a month. A good walking cane and sharp knife are with me.

@Chief and Peregrin
I didn't say never guys. If the right one presents itself, you know me.

Laugh all you want, the Mikov fish knife is at least a century old and rich in history in the Czech Republic — where they use it for mushroom picking. Seems like a fine knife to tote on a rainy spring day.

@Travman , Half/Stop , @Jack Black , joeradza , pmek5 , and others - there are a lot of great knives popping up. I got so jacked over the jacks posted that I collected a couple of capable Ka-Bar codgers as carry-jacks today: a medium (3 5/8") jack in jigged green (?) bone and a large (4 1/8") jack in jigged brown bone, both from the 1923-1950 period. They are sturdy - the large is 5/8" wide.

One year ago today, this little ball of trouble maker was born. I have a knife for him, with a story that I won’t bore you with again. But here he was and here he is. Thanks Jsega51

Happy Birthday!! You’re welcome bud.

For some reason, this knife always seems to disappear for stretches of time, but it’s always a pleasure when it shows up again!

Pàdruig , SteveC , @Old Engineer, JTB_5 - Mighty nice knives, guys.

Thank you for the compliments, Stuart. I love the old bone in many of the knives you have been posting lately and the two you are carrying today are real beauties. I also appreciate your ability to capture such details in your pictures, showcasing everything about the subject knives, from their imperfections to their hidden beauty. You do a tremendous job at capturing their overall character.

Nice choice

Here's me today

Wonderful old sawcut on that Barlow, Jack! Just wonderful.


I have these two with me today. A big one and a little one. My daughter has been curious about my knife photography so she wanted me to take a picture of one of her knives (given to her by her grandfather) and she wanted it to have flowers in it (of course). She is also expecting me to give her a report on whether or not anyone had anything to say about her knife at the end of the day.... So go nuts, but please be gentle, she is only 9.

Your photographs always put the knives in their best light. As much as I like my 43 Cocobolo, your pictures make that red jigged bone look oh so good!

I always like to see your I*XL Jack!


I carried my Ulster Boy Scout knife today. Born 1923-1926, it has aged well.
