What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

The Barlow is a 1970; and you are correct, the redbone is stupendous on those. I think that kind of redbone went back to the Case XX USA and Case XX periods and maybe earlier?

We have lot of parks in our county. This one is one of the oldest and with all the rain we have had lately the flora has exploded. Poison Ivy in particular has exploded in this park; it's hard to find a place where there isn't any!

Thank you for your comments, Gary. The Mini Muskrat pattern has been around for a long time; probably as long as the Muskrat. Like Case's Muskrat and Tiny Muskrat, the Mini Muskrat has no pattern number. The Mini Muskrat is the same size and design as Case's 6318 medium stockman (there most popular model). The Mini is very pocketable and much thinner than the stockman.

Prime Peanut, Gary!

Thank you, Gary. I am always stunned by how good looking your Stag RR stockman is.

 

Day six of a week of redbone is a Case Peanut.

 

Back to a Case Medium Stockman today. Glad I have several, got no idea where the other of this vintage is (it's got to be around here somewhere!) OH

 

This amazing creation by Charlie Campagna deserves to be paired with a great cigar like the Fuente Opus X. Two classics from Masters of their respective realms.

@NewBlades16 , yes Andrew, I lit this one up today. You are correct, I like the Anejo better. And they are a bit cheaper aren’t they? Your Lambsfoot should be arriving tomorrow, and I believe you will love it. They are nearly perfect!

 

I love seeing people put their knives to work. Great job!

 

carrying my new Jeffrey Mitchell spear point. I like it! and, btw, those new CCampagna SFO Lambsfoot's look really nice! congrats to those of you who scored one.

 

Thank you sir.

Very nice knife with beautiful scales.

 

Had this in my pocket since receiving it yesterday and went out to check on our roses after the rain .


The bushes have not gained much foliage yet but the blooms have been pretty good so far

Then the U.S. Mail came with a Flea Bay acquisition of an old SEO&S that someone really OVERCLEANED. ( Squire Elijah Oates & Son )


It turned out to be a Smaller Than Normal sized one

It is even smaller than a TC 14 Barlow

It does have Integral Bolsters

The Snaps at 1/2 ,, Open ,, & Close are very good

For Saturday, a couple of favourites:

 

Had this one with me again.

 

Thanks Gary, it was the first I had seen like it, too! Very nice choice of your Lambsfoot with a medium Stockman; you can tackle quite a few cutting tasks with those two!

@Fodderwing Thanks Dwight! Awesome shot of your Lambsfoot!!!

My duo today are from the "Catt" family. I'm always amazed at the skill it took to put together such a handy knife as the Whitt-L-Craft!

 

It's just too hot and damp for carbon. I rubbed some rust off of Stubby the lambsfoot and wiped down my waverave #78 before it followed Stubby's lead, and put them both away for now. The little Opinel is mercifully light in the pocket.

 

Mitch, sorry I missed your querry at first. It's 6 1/4" overall, 2 1/2" blade, 1/8" thick 440c stabilized maple burl sanded to 3000 grit and rubbed with Johnson's paste wax. I tried to cut the scales from the block with my coping saw but that stabilizing made it so hard I had to use a hack saw! You can contact me at [email protected] if you have more questions.

 

Harry that SEO&S is a nice addition and very interesting being so small. Makes a great big bro little bro too! Love the integral bolsters. Always enjoy viewing your roses.


Have a great weekend folks.

 

Today’s pair is a couple of re-works. Hope y’all have a sharp ‘n snappy Saturday!
Special recognition and “thanks for showing” to all of you and your new Guardians and Waynorth Lambsfoots!

Nice fistful of working knives, David. Is the electrician current Case production?
Haven’t seen one in rough black before.
I bought a Klein just like that dirt cheap on the auction site, except not mint looking like yours. Mine had been mercilessly tortured and abused by a gorilla with a bench grinder, which made it a candidate for my own mods. I wanted one to reshape into a sheepsfoot, but would never hack up one in such good condition as yours.
Cheers!
