What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[screened porch]

Dang, that's one of the funniest comments that I have ever read. Still crying from laughing. Thank you, Jer.

Shucks.
I took a picture, but it broke the camera.

 

[Jack Black]

Carried two 77 Barlows today during the drive from Dickinson , N. Dakota to Great Falls , Montana . ( Old Pics of Knives )


Shortly after leaving we stopped here

And saw some scenery


And we saw these when we drove around inside



Then we finally got to the Big Sky Country of Montana

Also ran into some Traffic Congestion along the way.

North Dakota and Montana are both some very beautiful states .
Tomorrow we should be in Glacier National Park .

Thanks for the photos. Your 77’s are looking great my friend!

Today is my Ebony Churchill and my new Sambar ACL.

Your skill at picture takin and use of lighting is enviable, as is your new whittler!

Stained two decks before the drizzle began, carried my 2012 Bloodwood 68 Stockman today Love how the covers have aged.

I like the covers!

That’s a great looking knife right there!

Reminds me of a commercial from olden times.
If you dare wear short shorts, Nair for short shorts na na na na na na na.
I cut quite a swath with my jodhpurs and braces today. Too hot for riding boots, so I wore sandals.

I also had a rosewood lambsfoot, but that group shot wouldn't focus.

I can see the tang stamps on the two jacks, what’s the stockman- a Camillus 67?
Nice group!

Something for Fun Friday, or Fancy Friday, or Black Friday, or Northfield Friday

Yes, it's a wondrous old scarred ebony, Jeff It is an old photo as I am cameraless....oh the pain. Here is another old shot of her open

thanks!
Just wonderful. Worth way more than a Farthing.

Knife by Pedro Bermudez

Great looking knife, sir!

New Otter. Sharpened up easily. I had thought to try dyeing the handle, but most likely I will just put some oil and beeswax on it. Good user and carries well, I just prop it in my pocket with the key wallet. Lenght closed is 94 millimetres, just right in my opinion for a pocket knife. Good snap and smooth firm pull, fit and finish is good, no gaps and blade centers nicely when closed. I wonder what the wood on the handle is?

Enjoy the new Otter! It looks like some variety of mahogany.

Oops forgot to post my carry today!





Hope everyone in the path of Florence stays safe

I tried mine in the kitchen, and can confirm you were right~the 4” Lambsfoot does admirably on the cutting board!

Just ask, Half/Stop , Gev. The front door is always open and the ice is always cold.

Yes indeed! Some might call it Southern Hospitality! But, it’s actually just another example of the good hearted people here and the friendships that develop from all over! It’s always much appreciated Stuart! Hope to see you again soon my friend!

First toting of my latest project, since I finished her up last night. I won a bid on this Camco Scout for less than the very reasonable shipping charge. I had intended to caniballize the awl blade to put in a TL-29 to make a harness jack, but when I got it I liked it too much. Carried some, but never sharpened, and strong smooth snaps. The awl blade was cocked over toward the main causing jamming and blade rub, so it needed to be tweaked a bit, and the ugly plastic handles had shrunk.

Today is my Ebony Churchill and my new Sambar ACL.

Nice pairing Ron

 

[JTB_5]

Had to fiddle with the effects in this lighting to get the handles to show up right, so the other stuff looks a little weird. Still, 1st time pairing these two. Happy Friday folks!

 

[Half/Stop]

Nice pairing Ron

Thanks buddy! The Churchill is slim so I can carry the ACL in my watch pocket or in a slip in the same pocket. They make for a very nice duo. It could become habit forming!

Thank you. I found them all Wednesday at an irresistible price. The upside-down one is a Kent/NY City/USA, made by Camillus for Woolworth's, I was reminded this morning by an old post of Codger_64's.

Cool mod! Didn't know they sold buffalo horn, I know what my next re-cover job will be done in that turned out very nice

Thank you! Buff horn is quite easy to cut, shape, and polish. I am going to continue the polishing with some micro grits as it seems to bring out more and more rays and highlights.
But be warned! It smells BAD!

Been following the storm coverage. Had to laugh at one of the beachside reporters- they guessed wrong and had him too far south, he was visibly disappointed not to be in the thick of it.
Hope you and yours are high and try!

Edit: dry! High and dry

 

[Gevonovich]

You have great taste Gev

Thank you Sir ! As do you !
