Trestle Pine Superior with reclaimed Ash wood scales. Very cool story on their website about the woods origin, and how it relates to the RR boom of the 19th century.

That's really nice. Thanks for exposing me to a line of knives I'd never seen before!

I've got a cool "new one" today. Along with the ever-present Camillus, I'm carrying a 1999 Case Mini-Copperlock in saw cut bone. The rough cut nature of the covers is really, really cool, and the bone is dyed with a ton of color variation to it.

Fantastic covers on that copperlock!!

Very true. If I could show my Karambit collection here in Traditionals, you would see a different side.

Yeah, guessing you have folders with features that cross the line here.
I share your interest in this style. They're really neat.
I have a book on them that says the pattern goes back to the year 1100, originating in Indonesia. They were agricultural tools, like pruners (I'm sure you're aware). Sounds traditional to me

Anyway, here's one I think I can post here. Not totin' it, but hope to give it some custom handle scales soon.

Below is what I'm totin' today
Happy Friday all

I’m on a deployment until May, and this thread is making me really miss carrying a traditional. I love my Emerson and it’s a workhorse, but it doesn’t have the character or good looks of a nice slippy.

Thank you for your service, it is greatly appreciated sir.

Today it will be this nice custom friction folder with a Gigi Sechi (Sardegna, Italy) blade and an handle by Stephane Thomachot ( France )

Â

Now that is an exceptionally beautiful knife. absolutely gorgeous.

I've been meaning to pick up one of those. I'm on a Case kick lately, and love the thought of having their Beer Scout equivalent. Great jigging on that one!

The case amber jigged bone is always gorgeous.

Great combo Buzz, I love the Camillus but man that's a nice Copperlock

Thanks. It's so strange to see covers like that on a more modern era Case. I'm used to their covers being so perfectly shaped and immaculate. This one is sort of like jigged soup bone or sumthin'. If that style of bone had been used on the newly released Case Barlows, collectors would be praising the knife gods.

Now if it had only been a full-sized Copperlock in CV........

That must have been a great meet-up Tom

After 7.30pm here, and I still haven't posted my carry! Hope everyone is having a good week, Friday tomorrow

Thanks Jack, it was, we had a good time. Nice pairing

Happy Fixed Blade Friday everyone
