I wish my work colleagues would do something like this for my birthday!
Happy Birthday, and what a wonderful gift to receive!!
Voluptuous vintage knife, Nick!
Thanks for the thoroughly thematic thrill, Ken!
Alan, I'm glad you only post at most two of your knives at a time; I don't think my system could handle larger doses of such sublime knives!
Congrats on the return of an old favorite, @spyderg !!
You're an international man of mystery, Leslie!Congrats on that South African beauty!
Thanks, Stuart.I'm glad I can give you a challenge in your "Pick a winner from GT's choices" game.
I'm a BIG fan of Rough Rider amber jigged bone (and the amber RR canoe was my first of MANY canoes)!
I'm sure getting a lot of vicarious enjoyment from your trip pics, Harry; thanks!And that stag 73 on the LF&C board is superb!
Thanks for the kind words, Jeff.I have to confess that the edge on the Buck stag canoe is straight from the factory. I sure like the wide bevels, though, because I can sharpen those much easier.
The ebb and flow of name popularity over time is interesting. Some of my relatives had names not currently very common.
Bernice (Bernie) was my wife's mom, my mom was Ettamae (Mae), and my mom's mom was Minnie.
Thanks, Jack.Handsome hardware pair!
Nice 72, John!Wood handles? Hope you caught your limit!
Lot of cryptic posts about that Böker model!??! What model is it?
Arrowhead or knife or both?
Condolences again, Shawn. Sounds like you're having a good trip, though!
Couple of impressive stag models, Stuart!!
Fascinating covers, Gev!
We live in a time of "alternate facts", Randy!
Thanks, Dean.I totally agree about that equal-end spearpoint federal shield S&M!
I can see why they'd get a repeat performance!
Superior stag bone, Dave!
Thanks, Tom.Auspicious autumnal arrangement!
Your stag Churchill is a champ, Ron!
What date is it?? Is that REALLY your sharpening stone, or are we getting set up for some sort of seasonal deception??
Man, I like that knife of yours!!
Tough to beat that pair!!

You have some great work friends.
Jeff, that’s a beautiful example! I love the old 8OTs.Picked up this vintage matchstrike 8OT stockman, I absolutely love it!!

Jeff, I’m really glad that you’re enjoying that 85. It’s really satisfying when I see one of my old knives, and realize that it ended up with the right person. -LanceI saw this one on my dresser this morning, and just HAD to pocket it again. Probably now my favorite 2-blade jack.

Stag, real or faux is good by me.
It cuts very well as Case knives usually do, and despite being really small and thin it feels pretty good in hand.
Sorry to hear about the extra work OH, moving home is hard enough, without hurricanes adding to it. Hope you'll be very happy in your new place. Lovely Penknife![]()
