That bad boy looks like he's all business!

Thanks, GT. That rope cutting/fusing/end whipping project whipped me like a rented mule. The knife did fine, me, not so much. I like that gunboat, matey.

These two today. The big Rosewood Lambsfoot will be doing most of the heavy lifting!

Big knives lead to big jobs which leads to big pain in the back and wrists. Be careful, but that's a fine duo, Ron.

I'm making this my Throwback Thursday by totin' this Camillus Wharncliffe pen knife from 1916. At 3 3/8", it's an easy carry. (I'll have a perpetually carried barlow around in case I encounter some heavy cutting chore so as not to tire this geezer out.)

Age, size and bone all in harmony, modern makers should be aspiring to this and offer more Penknife types.

Fantastic example, congratulations

Thanks, Will and Gev. I'm just a lucky guy (and well aware of it, too).

For your back:

Thanks a lot, Gev. I pulled a muscle trying to get into a pair of yoga pants. Like wearing a slingshot!

@Travman and kenspen Those are some fine knives that you shared in nice photos today. Thanks.

Camillus Jack today

 

[RDaneel]

I love that GEC!!

Thanks, I do too!

Thanks, Dean; I think that mini copperhead looks good enough to post in the "Aesthetics" thread if I ever get around to it. Your CSC Forum Knife is always a welcome sight, and I envy you the pleasure of having the world of Calvin & Hobbes ahead of you to enjoy for the first time. Maybe my all time favorite comic strip, although at times I was quite a fan of Doonesbury and Bloom County (and currently Pearls Before Swine, and even Pickles).

Thanks for your sibilant support, Dean.

Ron, Rachel, & Dean, you're each Wizards of Wooden Wednesday, and your pairs this week all have wood that makes me go WooHoo!


- GT

Thank you for your kind comments, Gary. Your latest canoes are quite seaworthy!

Wow! What a fantastic little knife!

Decided to go nostalgic today!
This Buck 111(along with an old 110) was the first knife that I actually bought with my own hard earned money(summer chores as a young fella). I was at the local gun show with my Dad with one thing in mind and that was to buy a knife. My Dad did the negotiating for me after I spotted this beauty on a table and actually came away with another knife as well , a 110.
This was the one I had to have and it was mint at the time . It and the 110 both survived my youth with many bumps and bruises along the way. It doesn't see much use anymore but it is on the hip today and ready for action.

Great story and a beautiful Buck! I have never seen one like that before.

 

[SVTFreak]

It’s a stockman kind of day.

Every day is a stockman kind of day! Lol

Old friend along since it’s very humid today and I was sweating in the shop trying to refinish the kitchen furniture. Recycled photo. Sorry. After I shower, I’m sure Ryu stockman will come along for the rest of the day.

Thanks Ratbert.
Here is a picture of the 110 with it. They were both part of the deal that day. I had Case and Parker knives that were all gifted to me from family , but those two were my first purchase. They truly are well built knives because I was very rough on them as a young boy. The 110 is a no-dot so I think it was quite a bit older than the 111.
Oh , and my skillz with a sharpening stone were less than stellar back then.

I think as boys, we all were more than just a little rough on our knives. That 110 does appear to have some miles on it...I can tell that it is well-loved!

Here you go Paul

Paul I hope you don't get the big head with all of quoting this beautiful knife! But, I can't resist! It took me almost a whole day to get the drool off of my iPad screen! This my friend is just a beautiful knife. I know it will feel as good in the pocket as it looks! Congratulations!

Thanks GT! Nice pair of “boats” you have there .

Enzo necker and a blue farmer for me today.

Tom, I hope you are well my friend! I have missed you! We have had a lot of people posting FB's lately and I was just think the other day about you. Glad to have you back! A great duo there today!

Rented mule! I know exactly what you mean buddy!

Wow Stuart! This Camillus is everything that makes me love a single spring two blade knife! A wonderful example of the pen knife!

That is exactly what I was thinking my friend!

Out for a quick walk before I make dinner. The stream is up after all the rain. Saw a bear about 15 minutes later.
