• Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I hope that you all have something to be grateful for this year and for many years to come
  • America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

    Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

A classy uptown Lambsfoot Ron. :thumbsup::cool:
 
Robeson and Miller bros.

Pretty nice pair there, Nick.

Amazing array of barlows Stuart. What a grand collection of Queens! And the granddaddy's! :eek:

Thanks, Dwight and, wow, what a winsome Winchester!!

Does Benchmade Proper count as a traditional knife?

My vote is YES, and Buck, Case, and Lion Steel, to name a few, make similar modern traditionals.

Morning folks, struggling to keep caught up here on The Porch lately :eek:

I'm with you, Jack. It's a dizzying pace. I'm glad to see Pearl dockside, taking in the river's breeze.

All of you are bringing your A-game this Friday!!!!!

Dual cap lifters to start the weekend for me. The Camillus scout, of course, backed up by my Case beer t(r)apper in yellow Delrin.

I agree with you, Buzz, the posts are exceptional, and I'd add TheChunk91 TheChunk91 and @SteveC to that list, as well as your fine and functional pairing. Plus, I have really been enjoying your recent reviews and discussions of knives, their care, and utility. Thank you.

After I saw the posts by @Fodderwing , dc50 dc50 , cigarrodog cigarrodog , and Half/Stop Half/Stop , I went downstairs, collected all of my knives and scolded them for being so scruffy and devoid of any ambition. Those were some stellar knives posted and I told my shameful lot to "shape up or ship out."

Gev, after seeing the handsome old fella that you posted, I decided to give one of my elders a chance to see the sun today and ride in my pocket. A QUEEN CITY sleeveboard in Rogers bone from 1922-1932. He's old enough to join me and my buddies for lies and libations this afternoon.

Stuart I’ve seen that scruffy lot of knives you have! :D This Queen City Pen knife is a prime example! Let me assure sir you have tons of Stellar with a capital “S”! :eek:

Beautiful old Pen knife Stuart! :thumbsup: :cool:
 
I've held out using this one which is silly because I will never part with it as it's a gift from a good friend. Why would I just let this one sit:confused: no reason to, so in my pocket where I can derive pleasure using such a great knife:thumbsup:

Paul, I agree with your election to put that fine knife to use - an honor to a friend and an honor to the knife. Those knives catch my attention when they appear in posts here, and yours is a very nice example. They are interestingly similar to Primble English Jacks, as you can see below (except for the spear mains on mine). Your post has persuaded me to give a short reprieve to my recently chastised collection and take this one along with my Queen sleeveboard to my afternoon gathering with friends. Thanks for the nudge, pal.
