What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

View attachment 933903 Today I am wielding a pitchfork (to move hay, not as part of a political uprising) and a GEC 66 SFO from Austin at Traditionalpocketknives, this is a blood red bone, and is now my favorite pocket knife.

Grooves, pinched bolsters, sharp and red. The pinnacle of pocket knife artistry.

That’s a spading fork, not a pitchfork.:D
I know, there’s one in every crowd.

Man, Every time one of you shows a 66, I get the lust!
I can certainly understand it being your favorite.

Are you feeding livestock?

I’m a surburban dirt farmer, so no livestock, just waist high weeds!

I do love the 66 and the 3 blades, a very slim handy knife. I get some blade rub when I press too hard on the nail nick, but I really don’t care about it, and my sense is that is just a fact of life if you use a 2-spring, 3-blade knife for real.

Just returned home from Texas to find this black linen 15 in the mail. It looks great, has flawless fit and finish (no gaps at all, no rough spots), and though the action isn't as crisp as my navy lambsfoot, I think after a flush and some working it will get better. This is a fabulous little knife!
 
Hi John,
Yes it is. I forget where I got it. It did come from one of the specialized Buck sellers floating around here. Check out the Buck Forum.
