So many remarkable knives posted here since I last visited, but I won't have time (or space) to remark on all of them. :(


That's a classy pair!! :cool::cool::thumbsup:


Boffo Bulldog, Lance! Cool tang stamp and blade etch! :thumbsup::cool::cool:


Commendable bone on that jack, Spaten Spaten !! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:


That's a dandy, Leslie, with the slender serpentine shape, round bolsters, and script shield! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool: Eye-catching color on the covers, too; what does Case call that?


First-rate photo of an old friend of yours, FBC! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:


A Vic Cadet is such a grand, likable knife! :cool::cool::thumbsup:


Handsome pair, Jack; it's good to see that Unity lambsfoot getting its turn to spend some time with your latest Ancient! :cool::thumbsup::cool:


Impressive subjects in your photo, Will! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool: The stag on your 83 is outstanding, your slip from Bob is a fine memento, and that amber jigged bone Case stockman is a desirable model.


Your Workhorse is a real thoroughbred, Ron! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:


Three absolute classics, Jeff! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup: Do you have more than one modified Camillus TL-29? The wood looks much darker on this one than what i think I remember.


That's a jaw-droopingly good-looking knife, Travman! :eek::thumbsup::thumbsup:


Kudos on an excellent photo of a laudable old knife, Gev! :cool::cool::thumbsup:


Looks quite marvelous to me, Jer! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup: I have a humpback stockman that's a favorite.



Thanks for the paisley props, guys! :):thumbsup: And thanks, Stuart, for noting my canoe. :)


Thanks, Ron. :) About a month ago, on @afishhunter's recommendation, I picked up one of the canoes you described, I think. Does yours look like this?

Thank you both for the kind words. This thread certainly leaves you behind in a hurry. I’m sure I missed many great knives in the past few days. I’ve got this Queen made Northwoods in my pocket today. I heard these were hit and miss, but mine has tight construction and good walk & talk.

They make a great couple Jack! :thumbsup: I’ve been noticing that your new Sambar has the blade etch. I was wandering if this designates this knife as a first? I know it definitely appears first quality in every way!! :D

Today I’ve kept the NF Barlow from yesterday and added the Northfield GEM to keep it company! :)

Nothing wrong with Drop Points, Spears, Wharncliffes, feet from Sheep and Lambs, Joshua. Speys? I don't think so....:cool:

Thanks, Will

Naturally, though a man will have his favorites. Your comment about speys sounds like a challenge a knifemaker should take up to prove you wrong. I like to think about knife shapes in terms of the whole knife--if the handle lines complement the blade shape, then you have something more special than just a generic handle shape with a blade attached to it.
 
@kai76 Nick, let me join the chorus of compliments on your old Schrade sleeveboard. What a wonderful thing to see - tip bolsters and time worn jigging - first thing in the morning. It's a beauty!

Nice pair, Jack. I saw your post around 9:30 am this morning, which appears to be the same time of day over your way that you posted. Seeing that pint in your picture changed all of my breakfast plans.

I like a Queen, even by another name. That's a fine one.

Stacking the deck, eh, Ron? That's a potent and pretty pair.

As usual, I am enjoying seeing everyone’s knives. Even though I will never own most of these, I can experience them right here.

I agree with you, Jeff. I don't own a single GEC knife, but I get to enjoy looking at fine examples in this thread. I didn't even know about them before I arrived on the Porch. Thanks for sharing, folks.
