[Prester John]

I only hope my next navaja has a clip point like that
It's my favorite blade shape and Jose' did a fine example with yours

It makes my heart sing every time I look at it.

No doubt about it. You're a lucky knife-nut Vince

Tomorrow, Thursday, March 28, is a very special day in the United States: Opening Day of Baseball. It should be a national holiday. I GOTTA carry this:

Victorinox Tinker from a GAW by @JTB_5.
Play ball!

It's called an Ettrick and is a type of knife used by sheep farmers from the 1700's according to our Jack Black. See this thread:

Thanks for the info.

Another Ettrick - this one in horn. Very useful 2-1/2" blade with plenty of handle.

Opted for a matching set of Case Jigged Chestnut Brown Bone covers. These covers are some of the best bone they’ve done in years.

Agree wholeheartedly...

I‘m totin’ a new custom fixed blade today from local knife maker Evan Miller (Hawk Wing Forge). It is 5 1/2 inches long and a joy to carry. White G10 handles and a 30 degree inclusive edge, fantastic little slicer.

That looks like an exceptional fixed blade, Tom! That looks like it would excel at just about any day-to-day chore.

I've been out of action since Sunday and gotten way behind on this thread. I had a minor outpatient procedure (think "frontal colonoscopy" with a camera and laser) yesterday to remove a 12 mm (think .47 cal. bullet) kidney stone (first and, hopefully, last). Today, I'm in pain management, so am a bit dopier than usual. I'll try to catch up on some complimentary comments on the recent fine postings soon. Today, this is about all I am totin' around the house: a Belknap Hardware barlow from 1968-1985.

I hope you recover quickly, Stuart! I've never had the pleasure of a kidney stone (knocking on wood) but I've had buddies who have and they say it's less than pleasant.

Looks nice Dylan

Thank you, Jack! Great duo you are sporting today.

I'm usually not too crazy about such knives, but that is a beauty, Dwight!

I’m pairing these two again today. It’s hard to go wrong with Ironwood or Red Sawcut Bone! They are two of my favorites!

An exceptional photo of an incredible duo, Ron!


Went with this older Barlow today. It isn't the finest of knives but I really like it. It practically sings when you open and close the blades, some of the best walk and talk in my collection.

Love the jigging on this 38 Diamond Jack

Thanks for the compliment Dylan! It isn’t the finest of knives...... You jest my friend! That’s an absolutely beautiful old Sawcut Barlow! And as usual a stunning photo!
