What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

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.

Interesting. I thought I read somewhere they were made by Queen?

Either way I agree. Fantastic piece and the fact that I own a traditional stockman in S35VN is pretty awesome! I love mine and carry it often.

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

You’d be surprised. You can find deals. I got mine for $100 NIB.
 
I was kindly gifted this Craftesman TL-29 along with a Knife I bought off our good friend here in BF- Lostball Lostball
The Knife has a totally unused gorgeous Carbon Main Blade- and it had a snapped off Screwdriver...couldnt resist....
Sharpened up the Screwdriver edge and re-tipped this beast...sharp

What an absolutely great idea Duncan. I would never have thought of that. I hope it comes in handy!
 
btb01 btb01 & Jack Black Jack Black : Thank you for the story and pictures! This place is amazing and in itself this is a nice Christmas story! Ellie is always naturally lovely :)

Thanks, JP! :thumbsup: Hope you had a nice Christmas!

A real pleasure to meet Barrett, and I am glad Ellie has taken to a Yorkshire hat! :D :thumbsup:

I imagine she’ll keep wearing that hat when we get back to Minnesota; she seems to have taken a real liking to it! :D

We headed down to the coast yesterday, visiting West Bay and Weymouth.

Greetings from Washington. We are almost to Seattle and having a lovelydrive so far. Washington greeted us with rainy weather as expected. The GEC #14 has only performed minor tasks along the way but I'm glad I chose it because I never get tired of carrying such a beautiful and functional tool.

tried to post a picture but failed :(

Interesting scenery, Barrett. My wife and I have been watching a TV series called "Broadchurch" and the main setting are those cliffs along the beach in your first picture.

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 :D

Fascinating piece of cutlery history there :) :thumbsup:

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

It's currently open if you want to post there now :thumbsup:
