What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[afishhunter]

Thanks Jeff. Much appreciated. I try to keep seed out for the birds as best I can but it's a constant battle with the squirrels. I derive no pleasure from controlling their population but it's a necessary evil.

And a means of a constant supply of yummy fried squirrel and squirrel stew.

Camillus #69, #99 and a Hess Tiburon for a Hike with the dog.

Totin" this Remington UMC R21 today

 

[Peregrin]

Thanks, guys.
I almost caught a fat bluejay trying to stare a big yellow bellied sapsucker off the suet, but my movement spooked them.

Fodderwing, speaking of nice photos, love your backyard!

Your post made me go hunting for this older photo I took at our backyard feeders. The Woodpecker took one poke at the Bluejay a few seconds after this and proceeded to enjoy the suet alone.


Along for the ride today.

 

[TheChunk91]

I'm taking a break from the frontier today and toting this 881 I got recently.

 

[Fodderwing]

What's a Scout without a Cap Lifter?

A really sweet knife there John.

The office grind today, which is ok since it’s raining and miserable outside

Incredible Russell Barlow!!!!!!!!!!!

The birds come down and eat the dog's food out of his bowl and drink from his water bowl. Squirrels don't usually come that close to the house. The dog tolerates the birds, but not the squirrels

And a means of a constant supply of yummy fried squirrel and squirrel stew

It started out that way... fried, baked, mulligan stew... squirrel brains. Eventually burned out. Also the majority of the "control" is in the summer months. I stopped counting at around 200.

Cool lighter!

You're quite welcome. I picked a "bad" picture to use as an example since I don't own it anymore; I sold it...

Today I decided to carry one of my most used GEC knives, my Tidioute 48 Improved Trapper in Smooth Ivory Bone. Super good knife!

Ed J

Good looking user! Love how aged the Ivory Bone is looking already!

Boker USA

Unique shield on that one.

Carried my 2013 Antique Yellow Farm Boy today

An excellent choice, Paul! That was one of my first GEC's, and remains one of my favorites.

Very cool old Scout knife!

I’m not really totin these today, but they are on my end table to the left of my recliner. The Scout will see some use during the games because I’m pretty sure I will want a ice cold Coke or two! The two Norfolks will see plenty of CE and CF during the day!

Love that photo, Ron!

I just got back from a weekend of snowshoeing in the Adirondacks. It was a great time, making my way through 2 feet of fresh powder. I took a quick shot of the Remington while I was on the trail.

Sounds like a great time, Buzz! (Actually, it sounds exhausting, but I bet the scenery was beautiful!)

These today :

Excellent pair, Harry!

2017 Desert Ironwood 66 for me today.

My co-pilot earlier today

That's one good looking pup you got there, Paul! (That knife ain't too shabby, either. )

I've been carrying this Natural Canvas Micarta #71 Bull Nose (or NCM71BN ) a lot lately. I love this knife, so it gave me a bit of a scare when I was emptying my pockets last night and it wasn't there! I probably spent an hour looking all around the house, in jacket pockets and other pairs of pants, in between couch cushions, under the seats in my truck... I couldn't find it anywhere! Finally, I decided to try looking in the truck again, and there it was, sitting in the little compartment in front of the cupholders, just sitting in plain site. Not sure how I missed it the first time, but I'm just glad I found it!

I took that photo while walking down by the lake today. Eleanor and I were out running a few errands and trying to enjoy the nice weather (sunny, no wind, and "warm" -- almost 20°F! ) before the cold shows up over the next week. I just wish my winter fashion sense was as good as my daughter's.

Very nice Stuart, the Needham Brothers looks to be in excellent condition, I've seen knives of identical pattern with the stamps of other Sheffield makers (eg William Rodgers)

Thanks, Jack, and thanks for sharing that heavenly horn lambfoot.

Today is Toothy Tuesday!

That's a beauty, r8shell.

D Duckdog Beautiful knives Stuart!

Thanks Gary! It’s with me again today.

Thanks, Nick, and the same can be said of that graceful old Schrade. I really like the tip bolsters.

Yes, Virginia, there IS a snap of cold weather! That Queen half-congress is regal, Stuart! How old is Loki? He looked like a fine dog in a previous photo!

Plain Canoe of the Week: Buck honey bone canoe

Thanks, GT, for both compliments. Loki is a few weeks over 2 years old; acts like he's 2 months old. He's really fitting in. The canoe in that sweet honey bone is captivating.

Schrade Walden

That SW is stunning, Dwight.

I’m toting one from Sheffield and one from Soligen this morning!

Quite the intriguing international duo, Ron. Very nice, pal.

The office grind today, which is ok since it’s raining and miserable outside.

What a bodacious barlow. Thanks for sharing it in a wonderful picture.

Camillus #69, #99 and a Hess Tiburon for a Hike with the dog.

A tremendous trio and the Hess is very striking looking. A handsome and capable looking knife.

It started out that way... fried, baked, mulligan stew... squirrel brains. Eventually burned out. Also the majority of the "control" is in the summer months. I stopped counting at around 200.

You just need a little culinary help, Dwight:

I'm totin' something simple today, simply because:

Loki just took a break from a tug-of-war with a dish towel to say "hi".

Thanks Stuart. That is a cool one you have today. Yes it’s simple although elegant and solid looking at the same time. What make is it?

Still this ol Schrade...

 

[Dschal]

Cocobolo 78 before the thaw.

 

[Pinemoon]

I’ve already been to town and back this morning and I had these two in my pocket! My truck showed 19F this morning which is cold for this area.

Gorgeous pair. I especially like the horn on the left

Exceptional colour on that stag.

 

[Duckdog]

Thanks Stuart. That is a cool one you have today. Yes it’s simple although elegant and solid looking at the same time. What make is it?

Thanks, Nick. I have no idea as to the maker. That's a problem inherent in inheriting knives with no accompanying documentation. the tang marks shown are all the ID that I have. I have several knives, folders and fixed blade, from that maker, and have posted a few in the Customs forum for help identifying the maker without much success. Such as this Elmer Keith pattern hunter:

A very cool pairing today Jack. More gorgeous horn.

Great pics Jeff.

That's an unusual one. How old? 1888?

Thanks Dwight, great to see that Crazy 88 again

Thank you Mr Black!! I like what you did in the lambsfoot pic.

Thank you kind sir

Nice pairing Jack . I picked up a small FB and a scout knife one day, thought "hmmmm this seems useful", and now I have a bucket full of combinations of these. And it makes me happy

For me today:

Thanks Tom, I have always enjoyed your stellar combinations
