What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Is that a 34OT or something smaller ?

 

Yep that's a 34ot

 

I guess I've just got small hands then.

 

@Duckdog Thank you Stuart and thank you @Jack Black

 

I bet your hands are normal, I just happen to have some pretty big mitts

 

Many thanks Gary...

 

Many thanks Jack...

 

Just finished this one.

 

I went with some color today; Queen 4L in bloodwood and a Rough Rider red bone canoe.

 

Beautiful knives and a great story.

 

Evening switcheroo

He’ll be back.

He’ll need a major memory upgrade for that job.

I think your research is sound, professor.

Re: gas mileage... it’s worth it!

 

Thanks... My suggestion of trying an additional finish is based upon my cocobolo knife from AG Russell. It has not darkened and it's a user.

It looks to have had a sealer of some sort applied but not sure. And any rate, being a woodworker, I would feel pretty confident applying a finish to the cocobolo. I wonder if anyone can speak to doing so ??

It's likely the custom makers know.

 

My "fancy" canoe this week is a Buck jigged bone model (thanks, Clay):


International Knife this week is a John Watts stainless ring opener (thanks, Jack):


Watch pocket knife this week is a Robt. Klaas brown jigged bone mini canoe:


- GT

 

That Buck Canoe is a good looking knife.

 

Sounds like you have the knowledge to make the right decision.

 

Thanks, 'Buzz. I couldn't agree with you more.
The maker is Eldon Talley, if I remember correctly he was mentored by S.R. Johnson. He was obviously a good student.
