Duckdog said:
Finally slogged through all the posts since I left last Friday, There have been some incredible knives, scenery, and stories posted!! I was lucky to be able to click "LIKE" as much as I did without a cramp. Today, I'm totin' twin Schrade Walden 2OTs for a two-fer on Twos-day. I'll be indoors most of the day (rain in our future here) and they'll ride in separate pockets. The Case 6207 will handle any cutting duties.

It looks very nice! I think that is the best matchup I’ve seen on any of Great Eastern’s Ironwood! :thumbsup::D

Thanks! I've never really been bothered by mismatched covers, but there's something so neat about a perfect matchup like this. When I was editing the pictures to post, I kept getting confused about which side I was looking at. :D

He sure does nice work, doesn't he? I like smooth white bone, and it looks great on that Barlow!

Are those horn handles on both Queens, Stuart? Delightful dark duo! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup: Sorry to read that the fishing was less than ideal from a catching perspective. :(

Thanks for the compliment and commiseration, GT. It was a great two days on the water, albeit without a rewarding rockfish repast. I certainly cannot complain. The Queens are slabbed in silky synthetic.

Thank you, Ratbert, They are truly fine knives and I don't know why they never caught on (only made two years, I understand).

Dang it all, that's a fine looking knife. Congrats, Wayne, for getting it done and thank you, @glennbad for the exquisite execution. Excellent work!

A LOT of people have said that over the years! :D I think Penny has got even worse as he's got older, Steve Ignorant was supposed to be a nicer guy. I saw the Poison Girls a couple of times, but I can't remember if Crass were on the same ticket of one of those gigs or not. I've often been to gigs, and actually missed one or more of the bands! :rolleyes: :D

Your Winchester has some beautiful character my friend :) :thumbsup:

I'm carrying my ebony Lambsfoot today, and the carbon Case Swayback that Gary recently gifted me :) :thumbsup:

Good lookin' pair, Jack. I have almost bought one of those Swaybacks about 100 times, I don't know why I never did.

I might have forgot seeing a band or two, myself. :D
In regards to the Winchester, thank you. Old knives look better that new knives, IMO.
Mo patina mo better.:p:D

You're a kind man, Jack. :)


Thanks, Gary; that's a generous gift from r8shell r8shell featuring her scrimshaw skills! :) :cool::thumbsup:


Thanks for the French knife info, Jer. :thumbsup::cool: (A heart wounded with "desolate languor" is serious! :eek: Who's the babe?? ;))


:thumbsup::D


W:eek:W, those are precious heirlooms you've got there, @kfalk ; congratulations!! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:


Luminous lambsfoot, Mike! :cool::cool::thumbsup:


That IS a hard question, Dean. I probably use the Minichamp the most - scissors, wharncliffe blade, ink pen, nail file - although the knife doesn't really have any special memories attached to it. The lambsfoot was a surprise gift from @mrknife and has the Guardians association; it's used quite frequently these days (but I'm thinking of switching it for a rosewood lambsfoot that my wife and daughter got me in York a year ago that I enjoy using more and has the family connection). The SBjr came from a BigBiscuit GAW before his first surgery when he had the GAW to ask for prayers, and I've been using it as kind of a prayer reminder or "rosary" or something ever since. But the scrimshawed Rough Rider small stockman may be my favorite, although I rarely actually use it; it represents an attempt to integrate my vocation and my avocation, and I strive to bring together aspects of my life that way!


Nice "Porch" embroidery!! :cool::D:thumbsup: Are you still as taken with the sowbelly as the day you got it? :thumbsup::cool:


Congrats, @Vaporstang ; very attractive yeller stockman! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup: Pearl is a persuasive personality! ;)


A pair of fine fotos of your knives, Jack! :cool::cool::thumbsup: That "Big Red" lambsfoot is striking!


Riveting, Ron! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:


Promising pair, Jeff! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup: I'm still a little concerned that a superb sowbelly was sacrificed for your inventive creation :confused:, but there's no doubting the uniqueness of what you dreamed up in that Beerbelly! ;):thumbsup:


Are those horn handles on both Queens, Stuart? Delightful dark duo! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup: Sorry to read that the fishing was less than ideal from a catching perspective. :(


Congrats, Karl! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup: Looking forward to seeing your remaining two new arrivals!


Impressive glamour shot, cigarrodog cigarrodog !! :cool::cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:


That's a splendid vintage knife, mitch4ging mitch4ging !! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:


Holy Cow, Dean!! :eek::thumbsup::thumbsup::cool: What a looker!

Alox for me this week is a Classic (thanks, Ken):

Blandine Bellavoir. Though if I meet Audrey Fleurot first (and she reads BladeForums), I hope she'll take that as a challenge. Dreaming is Free, in the words of the prophet Debby Harry.
