An amazing amount of steel has been carried along today...

 

Great pics guys

That'll get the job done Ray

 

Speaking of amount of steel, I'm gearing up for stainless weather while clinging to my new carbons.

Although I have a knife in my pocket every day, I've been away from Bladeforums for quite awhile. Today I'm toting around my latest acquisition, a GEC Dixie Possum Skinner. Wow, what a knife.

 

@Cutfinger Michael, I don't know why I had a brain freeze and didn't ID that tree on the spot. It's an Eastern redbud (cercis canadensis) and its budding is a harbinger of the shad run around here. The blooming of the cherry trees is a harbinger of the tourist run.

Thank you very much, Dave, Buzz & Jack!

 

This one today.

 

Thanks, guys.

Elegant, Jack.

That's a staggering knife, Dwight,

You are on a roll there, Steve, stacking those old beauties up like cordwood.

Terrific trio, Harvey.

Well, that'll do it. I cut down a small white oak in our yard on Tuesday and could have used you and that knife with the branches and wild grapevines.

That's a beautiful knife, Nick. The caramel covers are eye candy.

Grand old knife, Jack.

Those covers are radiant!!

Handsome knife, OH.

Pretty pair, Ron.

The pile side is staggering, too, Dwight.

I can see why. Classic!

That's tasty, Harvey.

You and a few others got me hooked on that yellow Case beer trapper, Buzz. Thanks, I love it.

Getting fancy, are we now, Jack? Very fine, sir.

Wood patina! Some oil and a toothbrush might get at it.

That's easy for you to say, Ron, with those two in hand.

Gorgeous Olsen, Dwight! My pair of 510s ran down in the basement and hid when I showed them your picture.

A corkscrew on a Coke knife. Just what I'd need for one of my favorite summer drinks - a Red Dog. Half Coke, half red wine. I learned it in France where it had a different name and was a way to make a less tasty (too dry) red a bit better. Handy tool, that.

Lovely old Remington, Gev, in a nice pic. Well done.

Sooo Wee, Pig! Both of those are fine, but I have to say that the BB has a bit more character. Some of Queen's best work across that collection. And thanks for the compliment for the Ulster.Yes, Philips head driver, but i assume not much torque could be applied.

Thanks, Buzz. You've had me looking to see if I have overlooked any scouts/engineer/utilities in my boxes.

Thanks, Nick. I like that solidly handsome Miller Brothers. Gotta look to see if I have a MB needing some fresh air.

@RDaneel Dean, somehow the pic of your beautiful green curly maple Case got dropped. That's a graceful gem.

The newest addition with me today

 

Love this pic Harvey. I absolutely love all metal advertising and souvenir knives.

They are amazing but as Buzz said, the Ulster is to die for. Just crazy exceptional.

What an experience that would be Greg. Thank you sir.

Lovely lovely sows.

A pair of very cool hen's teeth.

Thanks you so much my friend. Redbuds blooms are gone but the leaves are coming along.

 

Stuart another wonderful pair my friend! That Ulster has really got It going on!

Wish I could have been there to help you buddy! Thanks for all the compliments Stuart!

 

Yes it is a lockback and it has some blade play !

 

@Duckdog Thank you Stuart for the kind words. Those must have been the days, drinking red wine and Coke. Always nice to find overlooked knives, especially like that Böker and the Ulster.

@Fodderwing Thank you Dwight. Like you, I love the oddities. Looks like your outdoor Studio is in full bloom. Very nice.

 

2013 ebony single Clip Boy's knife

 

I only carry this one once or twice a month, but think I will carry on Friday:

 

Great knives everyone!

Still carrying this guy. Actually had to touch up the edge on the wharncliff and main today.

 

Beautiful Barlow Paul . TEW does MOP very well IMHO .

Harry

 

Had this Northfield 85 with me when we went to the YMCA and then coffee this morning . I really like this knife but seldom carry it .


Then earlier when I saw @Chui posting a TEW in MOP , I went and got my TEW in MOP and stuffed it into my empty pocket .



Harry

 

If I were to make a list of grail knives, this would be close to the top.

For Old Friends Friday:

Outstanding pair Harry. I just love the 85 fat spears and that my friend is a real beauty. The MOP TEW is beautiful and Paul's was outstanding. Have a great evening and thanks for sharing those aces.
