What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

R rasta bomb That’s a real nice example of a 72! The bone on the pile side is similar to mine.

Thanks. I'm starting to think yours might be some sort of early prototype what with the rare stamp and the bomb shield which I've never seen on a 72. It is a super piece, I'd probably never let it leave the safe.

Those covers have such depth to them! They look amazing to me.

Thank you. They are cool. The Late, Great Derrick Bohn had a talented maker friend who made them and couple of others like Denim Micarta, for the Northwoods. I treasure them.

Thank you! It could also be a homemade version, who knows? I came across the same tang stamp as mine used on 2 knives(Sword Brands) so far that I have found online. I know a collector who owns a couple more, also Sword Brands. I’ve read about and seen the bomb shield used on both Camillus and Sword Brands but they are the split back whittlers(main clip by itself and 2 secondary blades together on opposite end), which is supposedly the predecessor of the 72.

Thanks ! Very happy with this one and the pattern feels really good in hand

I also like the burnt amber bone medium Texas toothpick. Much better size than the small toothpick.
I think my first knife purchase after the forum knife will be the regular amber bone canoe with the canoe etch on the main blade. It's a great pattern, with a spear and a pen.
Congrats!
