What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Enjoying this hot and humid weekday off from work. Staying cool and lazy indoors with some good tunes and fondling this serpentine pen that just got some fresh mango patina. It might just be nap time for me soon. Hope you guys are having a good Tuesday.

That is such a gorgeous knife! It rings every bell for me - jigging, tip bolsters, wharncliffe main. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Bushboot and 2013 Scout, a gift from Primble sometime back.

Love that scout, Paul! The original and the best.:thumbsup:


Wooden Wednesday, so my Ebony Ancient is in pocket today.

 
It may be Wednesday in real time, but in the "totin' thread", I'm still enjoying the weekend! :D:thumbsup:


:D Your Buck Cadet is a classic, Jolipapa Jolipapa ! :thumbsup::cool::cool:


Alan, you have some sensational customs, but that stag drop point WLST Barlow can hold its own in that fast company! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:



Very impressive, Dave & John; I'm a sucker for shields that are actual pictures of things! :cool::thumbsup::cool: All three knives with jigged wood covers?


W:eek:W, Stuart, that stag equal-ender is a dream :cool::thumbsup::cool: (although the number on the bolster might be considered nightmarish by some :rolleyes:).


Nice combo, Tom; your white/blue rocks! ;):thumbsup::thumbsup:


Holy Cow, Paul T, that's a quintessential stockman right there! :thumbsup::cool::cool::thumbsup:


That MAM takes you to a higher gear, FBC! :thumbsup:;):thumbsup:


How many days of your month-long carry has it been so far? Does your grandpa know what your plans are for the knife? :cool::thumbsup::cool:


Delectable stag duo, Ron! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:


Heavenly Henckels, Harry! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:


Congrats on the HSB stunner, Nick! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:


Always a treat to see that unusual (to me) Gerber, Frank! :cool::thumbsup::cool:


Congrats on the acquisition, cigarrodog cigarrodog ! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool: (And IMHO, it's quite a feat to be able to take a photo that makes a knife look as good as G2's pics do. ;):thumbsup:)


I hope so too, Jeff! ;) One of our dogs encountered a skunk on the compost pile one night last week; still not sure how she came out of that without getting sprayed. :confused::eek:


Hugo!! :thumbsup::cool::cool::thumbsup:


So true, Jeff; I try not to think about that! :rolleyes:


So it's to be a church wedding, then? :p:thumbsup::thumbsup:


High-class Camillus Barlow, Steve! :cool::cool::thumbsup:


Splendid svelte stag/horn pair, Gary! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:



Stuart & Dean, those are some very fitting church knives you've posted! :cool::cool::thumbsup:




Thanks for the kind words, Josh & Dean & Stuart. :) I do like Case's chestnut jigged CV series.


Congrats on the Ulster and on that nice chain set-up! :cool::thumbsup::cool:


Congrats on the new peanut, Gary; I'm usually not a fan of white-handled knives, but for some reason, Case's white jigged Sparx (?) covers really appeal to me. :thumbsup::cool::cool:


Just need to take them down to a more acute angle so they're more efficient for whittling.


Thanks, HnS. :)


Beautiful knife, Paul! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:


Thanks, Jack. :) Kicking off the week with double horn (buffalo and unicorn) is a fantastic start! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Used my Electrician this morning to start de-barking an oak branch that I saved from a windstorm last summer and brought on vacation to turn into a walking stick.

A good ole Victorinox is always a safe bet for carrying. If I think back some 40 years ago, or more, you had two choices, at the local hardware an Oldtimer or Victorinox.
 
Looking for something appropriate for Wooden Wednesday that I hadn't posted previously, I went digging through some boxes. Recent fine posts by r8shell r8shell confirmed that I needed to post this find: a Miller Brothers swell end (or teardrop) jack. The firm went out of the pocket knife production business in 1926, so this fellow is a bit long in the tooth. Like all of the Millers that I have or seen, they were all pretty well made.

Of course, it wasn't until I uploaded the pic that I noticed my finger print on the shield.

Pretty neat top edge bevel on pile side of secondary:

Also didn't notice my reflection in the shield until too late:

Edited to clean up some typos.

What a beauty! It looks great, even without any nails driven through it. :p

Thanks, r8shell, the mess of Millers posted in the recent past here and another thread encouraged this post. I decided to keep it simple and skip the tats and piercings.

Feel better Jack, you look to be well equipped for the babysitting job :)

Two of my most used today.


Thanks Tom, at least my bad back meant I didn't get roped into a game of Twister! :eek: :D One of my favourite pairings of yours there - but they're all pretty darn good! :D :) :thumbsup:
