Same old, same old.

That's a sturdy sowbelly stockman, FBC. I need to get mine out and about. Thanks for the push.

Terrific trio, FBC; I'm especially partial to that sensuous sowbelly!

Thanks, guys. It is definitely a favorite of mine. I have to thank @NJBillK again for being a awesome guy!

Here's one more to give you another nudge, Stuart.

Typical English weather, overcast and gloomy while I've been out all morning, and as soon as I get in, the sun comes out so strong it's a struggle to see the darn computer screen

Our weather is and will be so much like yours, Jack, that I'm switching from coffee to stout and looking for some meat pies.

Have a Terrific Two Trapper Twosday...

Simple beauty is best beauty. Great bone!

Thanks, Jeff, and that's a handsome pair that you posted.

A stainless elk 15 and a Case ebony teardrop. Thanks Shawn @Wurrwulf

That's a capital Case there, Alan.

And now, for something completely different...

If I could see the sun, r8shell, I'd don some wings and fly towards it (though I'd use super glue and duct tape, rather than wax). Lovely little CRKT.

Same old, same old.

Nothing wrong with that approach, Buzz (from a guy who's been married 39 years). Nice knife in a fine photo.

Here's one more to give you another nudge, Stuart.

OUCH!!

Half/Stop That's a top shelf twosome, Ron, especially that luscious old Case.

kenspen Well played, sir, well played.

Taking the Scout with me to the boat today.

 

[Pt-Luso]

So elegant! That would be my Sunday and special occasion dress up knife!

Thanks, fully agree!!!

 

[joeradza]

Thanks Stuart D Duckdog . It's the ultimate gents knife for me.

 

[Pt-Luso]

Today with the French Opinel (Nº5)...

 

[RDaneel]

The Böker Barlows with that bolster stamp always trigger yearning in me!

Red and refined, Dean!

Speaking of copperheads, my watch pocket knife this week is a Case mini copperhead

- GT

Thanks, Gary. Regarding the Boker Barlows and their bolster stamp, I find them particularly good looking, too. I also have an affinity for your blue Case mini copperhead!

 

[RDaneel]

Today, for a reason.

 

[Half/Stop]

Half/Stop That's a top shelf twosome, Ron, especially that luscious old Case.

Thank you! That old Red Bone is hard to beat!

 

[Half/Stop]

Today, for a reason.

Yes Dean!!!

 

[Jack Black]

New knife day! Having a beverage to celebrate!

Great pic Dylan

Have a Terrific Two Trapper Twosday...

Nearly there John!

" 'O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy."
Apologies to Lewis Carroll for this appropriation of his wonderful work, but it best expresses my excitement this Twosday. Since the mid-1970's, I have had a Buck 110 available for use, primarily during hunting seasons, albeit not the same 110. I've been through several - given some away, has some "walk away", and recently I misplaced one. I have been unable to find the one that I purchased in 2006, so I purchased a new one a couple of months ago. Yesterday, I found the missing 110 in one of the piles of stuff that my wife asks me to clean up as regularly as she drinks coffee. I had none and NOW I HAVE TWO!! The happy twosome are below; the lighter colored one is from 2006, the darker one from 2018.

= Stuart

Congratulations Stuart I wonder that I have never acquired a 110 (Buck sent me one of the Titanium models once, and I could have just asked their UK importer for a 110 at one time). The main reason is probably that I used to carry this Schrade-Wostenholm regularly, and it is approaching the same size

And now, for something completely different... View attachment 983374 View attachment 983375

That IS different

Just re-read the Iliad and the Odyssey in the Fitzgerald translation (which I believe is pictured).
Gorgeous pair of knives.

I have been reading, studying, and re-reading them since I was a boy, and never tire of Homer The Odyssey is probably my favourite book, and always a treat to read

Thanks, guys. It is definitely a favorite of mine. I have to thank @NJBillK again for being a awesome guy!

Here's one more to give you another nudge, Stuart.

Great-looking knife Kevin

Our weather is and will be so much like yours, Jack, that I'm switching from coffee to stout and looking for some meat pies.

LOL!

These two today.

Stellar pairing Tom

 

[WValtakis]

Just arrived yesterday, put a fresh edge on it and dropped it in my pocket

[JTB_5]

Oops, sorry to be so inscrutable, Joshua.
I was thinking of your knife with the Toledo painting by El Greco, which I think is Spanish for The Greek.
Thanks for noting my buckshot bone teardrop.

- GT

That makes sense. For some reason I read it as though you were referring to a book under which the knife pair appeared. I should have recognized the translation.
