What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Jack Black]

Beautiful Stag Jack my friend

Wow. Next, she’ll try to convince you that there’s no frank in Frankfurter!

You've got me thinking about hamburgers, and I haven't even had breakfast yet.
I'll carry a li'l sambar lambsfoot, in case I need to bisect a burger today.

I told him there was not, but now that I think about it...if you name the pig "Frank"...

I love that groovy stag!

What's the old saying? "You can take the Ham out of Hamburg, but..." No, wait...*ahem* " You can take the boy out of Hamburg, but.."..Wait, no..that's not it...I don't know.

Umm,..err..Bacon!?!?

No, once you name them, they become pets instead of food!
My neighbors daughter names all of her chickens, ducks, and turkeys, and the only ones that eat them are the occasional mink, red tailed hawk (Coopers Hawks tried, but were not big enough and the redneck rooster fought them off), and my dog when one thought they would dig up my potatos.


Yes. Bacon is always the answer.

LOL! I still can't believe that I went my whole life thinking that at some point hamburgers had ham in them! Interesting Wiki Hamburger page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_hamburger

So is Hamburger Helper some sort of German Aid charity?

Thanks Jack, right back at you



Homemade, homegrown salsa .... Color me jealous . The knife is pretty nice too

A radio jack with me today.

Thanks Tom, and back at you my friend, you pair your knives very well

Thanks for the Keith Richards Okapi pic, Jack. Pulling out some serious pocket cutlery for the kids!

I have a Marbles ram's horn pruner with me; don't ask me why, because I have no idea.

A couple in wood today.

Really nice Gary

Today was my first hike since my surgery. I felt great. It was a two knife journey.

Are you trying to say you made that by hand with just that little knife

 

[Spaten]

Today is a hot one, but thankfully this guy will be there to help me cool down after work.

Jackknife's latest thread inspired me to give some well deserved attention to old western 48a that I don't carry enough.

Queen today and a pile side shot

Last weekend, we went to a friends house for a barbecue. Knowing I am a knife knut, he gifted me a Rambo III reproduction bowie. I remember lusting after these as a kid, and it doesn't disappoint as a wall hanger. I found out that his teenage son is an avid fisherman, so I gifted my friend my old Imperial fish knife, so he would have something to slit fish bellies on a lazy fishing afternoon with his son. Of course, I had to get a replacement. Came in the mail today:

Darned if it doesn't have the factory edge! It's a saber grind instead of flat, like the one I gave away, but it's so thin, I don't think I'll notice. All I've done so far is clean some lint and oil the joints. I think we're going to get along.

Handsome pair, Ron; superb bone on the 38!

Thanks GT!

Today, I have a Pal in my pocket - a Pal Cutlery Co. cattle knife that was likely made during the 1945-1953 period after Pal had taken over Remington's cutlery production and facilities (and moved production to Holyoke, MA), and was most likely built on Remington patterns and tools.

Beautiful bone and the semi-sunk joints are a mark of quality in this man's book

But, as a non American I have to ask what the drink coaster is about? Some beer, soft-drink or maybe laxative....

Thanks, Will

Those are two knives I admire very much indeed I'm lucky enough to have some 38s and one I use a lot, beautiful yet versatile and unusual knives. I also particularly like that Bonestag Teardrop, I'll have to get one once/if the money horizon reappears hopefully soon! Glad you are moving about, hope your recovery from the operation proceedes well

Regards, Will

Nifty indeed! I like how it flows along with the curves of the serpentine frame.

A quality beer, and thanks for the knife nod.

That's a compelling knife, Dave! What are the covers? Some kind of red stag? Kind of looks like Queen's amber carved stag bone.

GT- I had to look back in GEC"s archives,its been a while "Great Eastern Cutlery Tidioute Cutlery 2008 Brimstone Bone 542208M Moose Knife" I was pretty green when I started purchasing all the new models, I have no idea if its cow bone stag or
