Come on now, people, make a stand
In the navy, in the navy
I love it!
Old knife, new (old) mammoth pants...

Life is complicated. I admire you for handling such a simultaneous happy/sad day, Jeff.Strong emotions today- it’s our 37th anniversary today, and 9 months to the day we lost our son. So I thank you for this post.
Think I’ll call my Dad today.
That would be quite a trio if you can pick up the #14 Barlow you want....
(I think my new grail must be a two bladed #14 Barlow in some kind of wood covers, to make a full set)

Yeahhh. Me, too.![]()
Thanks, GT! Great looking Bucks! While I'm not certain of a series win for the Pelicans, I think a lot of people forgot to look at their team stats after Cousins went down. They can play with anyone right now.
...
Thank you, Gary. Yes, the Case Muskrat has no pattern number. It has "Muskrat" instead on the pile side of the pile side blade. The same is true for the Mini Muskrat and the Tiny Muskrat.
That is a very special two-blade Case Congress you have!
... Good looking Buck Canoe!
... Classy knives!![]()
Gary, those are a couple of great-looking Buck Canoes!
Thanks for the compliments Gary! That Buck Canoe in Jigged Bone is a good looking knife!

Smashing selection of Bucks GT, and a cool cap too![]()

Thanks for the positive comments about my Buck canoes, Shawn & Dean & Mark & Ron & Jack & @315 !I wish Buck would offer more of their Canoes in different handle material. I know I'm in the minority but I'd probably snag a few.
Today’s carry: 66 Calf Roper

I DO know what you mean, and as I walked to the bus stop yesterday, I thought about green knives and realized I have several myself and like them a lot!5K Qs I'm definitely a green knife guy, but there is green and there is green, if you know what I mean.
...
At first I thought I saw it right away on the chain saw, then decided I was looking at the handle of the pull-rope. I had to zoom in on the pic to find the knife, but that the knife was your Böker Barlow was not at all a surprise!Cutting next winter's wood with a couple pups... Can you spot the knife?
...
Thanks for your supportive comments, sir!Thanks and, yes, I remember that discussion - they are very similar patterns.
The "full" congress is a robust knife and a pocketful. I like your Case half congress and those Bucks are bodacious.

Thanks, my friend!
No safe queens here.
Thanks for the ID, @lambertianaI guess you could call it that. It's a 15 with clip and spey blades.
Today for wooden Wednesday:

Congrats on the appealing new pair, Joshua!![]()
As soon as I got to the mail today, I took out my 43 and 35 and tossed in this 77 and 15 that Buzzbait traded to me for a two-blade 77 barlow (I didn't even ask for the 15, he just threw it in there because he's generous).
I love the spring green sawcut and the slimness of the single blade. I also really dig the old barn covers on the navy knife! I'm going to have to see if a porch blade modder will turn it into a lambsfoot for me!
Thanks for the info.5K Qs Thank you Sir !
I’m not sure if Gec stopped the hand written identification on the tube caps .
I hope notIt might be just on the bull nose runs I’m hoping

I admire your classic Otter, @HFinn !!
Is that one of the full flat grind 303s mentioned frequently in the 2018 Forum Knife thread? Beautiful Buck, OH!
Congrats on the new Case, Will! Good to hear that it meets your expectations.A nice EE Small Stockman 63090 today. Really pleased with the knife and its quality finish.

Will, I'm usually not a big fan of the polished/oiled natural bone covers, but that knife rocks!!A pretty basic knife, but it is pretty

Thanks for your reply, @NJBillK . It's fabulous to hear that you're even more impressed with time!...
I must say that I am not... After coming to use it for a little while, I have found that it is the only traditional that I want to carry. I am fairly certain that I am happier now than when it landed. The "new to me" feeling has worn, but the buzz over it hasn't, and that is more special than the "new" feeling that we get from most "new" knives...
...
Thanks, Jack....
Thanks for the kind words pal, those are two great-looking knives
Late night, bad sleep, and an early rise - I'm feeling as tired as my internet connection is today!
Toting this ebony and ivory pair![]()

4 line Camillus TL-29 in my pocket today. Steel liners and lock, so does that date it to war time?
