I don't blame you!
That's how I feel about this one, though not as artistic and scarce, I really like this one...

I think the biggest threat is GT @5K Qs

@5K Qs am not certain of the exact increments but the inner ring moves way slower than the outer ring, like a watch with an hour and minute hand. Twirled it by hand until the outer dot lined up under the pointer.

Thanks, Jeff. My "dirty little (not very) secret" is that all the knives I post over the course of a week I actually carry every day of the entire week. So I'm usually carrying 16-18 knives each day, although 9-11 of them are in a "butt bag" that I carry in transit, but take off and hang on my chair at home or office.

Ah the 21 is a fine little gal. I really need to get mine rebuilt.

So you carry 16 to 18 knives in a fanniebutt packbag? Always prepared for a swap meet! Or a show 'n tell session...
If you do any boating, you're going to be in serious trouble if you fall overboard.

I am trying to go in the opposite direction. Not counting the SAK, Scout, TL29, or Leatherman that I have decided I want to always have on hand, I have gotten into the habit of two more in the rf pocket. I think I'm going to cut back to only one. The sad fact is that one of the two in the rf pkt don't see any use during the typical day. And If I'm not using it...

Peanuts in the guitar pick pocket don't count.

Edit~ The urge to actually use what I carry probably comes from my Granddad who only carried one at a time, and used it for everything. That’s what I used to do. Now, I have such a hard time picking one that I pick two.
Thank God so many here do not suffer the same affliction and get great joy from carrying and showing great knives. Knives that should probably not be used or even sharpened. I get to enjoy seeing them in this thread.
So thanks to you all for the views!

Nick that’s purely awesome Jigged Bone my friend! A beautiful knife indeed!

Cold Steel (yeah, I know...) Ranch Boss.

One of the most under appreciated knives of the past decade. Made by Canal Street for Cold Steel. Due to lack of sales (most likely due to price) i doubt Lynn Thompson will ever do another high quality slipjoint.

I would have loved to have one of these, but your right, not for the price it cost.

Thanks Gev and Ron! Was gonna post it as my 2018 traditional knife of the year thread but I guess it’s been locked.
