That's a nice one Stuart
Was hoping to get out for a good hike today, but my walking partner had to cancel due to illness. I woke up to a nice day too
Hope everyone has a great Sunday
Thanks, Jack, and that's a proud pairing that you're totin'.
After a week on the road I am hopelessly behind on this thread. My carries for today (boringly more of the same). OH
Classics are never boring, OH, and those are fine.
One of my favorites, a Shapleigh Diamond Edge barehead jack.
Yep!
Soupbone Sunday for me today! Thanks again, Darren.
Yep, for sure.
Camillus made 303 today
Wish they were still around, Steve. Thanks for the remembrance.

Beautiful bone on the Boker Stuart!
Thanks, Nick, (just found it in a box today) and I
LIKED the double tipped pen that you posted.
Peanut of the Week is a Case chestnut jigged bone CV peanut:
That's in his DNA, GT. That Case peanut is the winning legume today, IMHO.
Today's knives are a 1980 Case appaloosa Barlow (a gift from Paul Hilborn - thank you so much) and a Simmons Hardware Germany penknife in stag.
WoW. Dean!!
Thanks! This is a Wostenholm.
I meant to include the blades in the original post, but kept getting an error message, so I quit.
Yes, that's the picture of loveliness. Good job.

What a beauty and great photograph on the woodpile !
Lovely Boker Stuart
Now that is some nicely jigged bone! What a wonderful Boker.
Thanks, guys and gal. I found it this morning in another box that I hadn't cleaned out and put it in my pocket (while fetching firewood for Miss Norma's request for "fires all day long"). My new dog walking duties (dooties?) are taking time away from pic taking and commenting. Will try to catch up.
It was a pen blade with a broken tip, so I re-shaped it into a coping blade. But now that you mention it, it does have the taper of a teeny-tiny lambsfoot.
That's some very nice work, r8shell, and I am constantly impressed by your creativity and effort . Great work on giving a better life to fine old knives. And fine pictures. If I may I say - You rock!!
Thanks for some background on Hunter.
I knew he was a film critic, but I've never read any of his reviews.
Very cool knife, Stuart, but I don't know what to call it!
Stockman blade set-up, except for the spear main, and the shape of the frame is also rather unusual!
Yes, GT, he was a well respected critic for his depth of knowledge of film making, its history and objectivity on the films themselves. But, he didn't parse words or suffer mediocrity. As to the Kissing Crane/Klass, the NKCA dubbed it a whittler.
Stuart that’s some beautiful Bone on your Boker my friend!
Thanks, happy to be in that group, and just glad that I looked a little deeper into a box that I had put aside. Boy, was I glad.
- Stuart!
. There undoubtedly are others more qualified to provide relevant information on the stamp. And Klaas's connection to Kissing Krane
But I never carry any of my knives or firearms in there! They really frown on that!!!
well at least it's not windy, no joke with these temps. Indoor humidity 11% the knives don't like that
