Classy combo Ron :thumbsup:

I'm not exactly sure what it is that makes me not love the #14. I think the handle feels like a roll of dimes in my pocket and in my hand. It's narrow handle width, combined with it's two blade thickness, makes it feel almost round in the hand. I don't think I'm in love with the long, thin spear point either.

Sometimes hard to say what it is that attracts or repels you from a particular knife. I have a #14 Barlow I really like. I have never had a roll of dimes in my pocket though! ;) :thumbsup:
 
Scintillating Shapleigh shadow, Stuart!! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:

You had me googling "pork pies near me" yesterday, David! :cool::thumbsup::rolleyes:

Not a full-size trapper fan myself, but that sure is appealing yellow bone, Stuart! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Thanks, GT, and I'm with you on a pork pie pilgrimage. I have set my agents at work to find a source near me, but hope is fragile.

Half/Stop Half/Stop , @Amir Fleschwund , @315 , pistonsandgears pistonsandgears , and Travman Travman - those are some fine knives for so early in the day. Kudos on y'all.

I reached into the EDC drawer and these are what came out. A Case 6207 (1940-1964) and a Parker-Frost that is, happily, appropriate for Wooden Wednesday.

That Parker Frost is underappreciated. I've been edc an all steel model that I picked up and it's surprisingly well made.

Very true, Alan. I have some Parker Eagle brand that are a bit rough, but most are good knives. All of my several Parker Frost are very nice knives.

I'm starting to wonder if that case shield is on upside down

Not on the Buck, but the Case shield seems to be upside down. See post 117129.

Pretty sure it is, its as I found it, but up close you can see where someone's been at it before,little peck marks around the pins. Just a another aspect of its character.
