That Catt's got my tongue, Dean!
I like RR canoes, but I especially like the lacing on the slip you have for yours!
Honey Vic!
Glad to hear that damage was minimal, JJ.
You sure have shown us a lot of fantastic old knives in the short span of 50-some posts!!
IMHO, that's an ideal GEC #15, John!
Barehead, gorgeous bone (jigging and color), splendid shield, EO notch, sheepsfoot blade! (If I ruled the world, I might add a pen secondary.
)
Ron, I wonder if your problems were with the BF site, rather than your internet; I thought the forum was running slow for me yesterday, but not other sites. Fine pair right there in black and white!
I admire your commitment to the fixed/sout combo, Tom!
Sweet pic, Harvey!
Am I to conclude from the blade stamp that the knife is an unreal lambsfoot?!?
That's a winner, Dean; hard to believe you don't carry it LOTS!
Congrats on the captivating custom sowbelly
@Leslie Tomville!
(Maybe your wife loves you so much that she just pretends she doesn't know knife costs!
)
One of my favorite models
(even though I say I don't prefer single blades, or lockbacks, or knives over 4", or folded metal handles
).
Highly desirable duo, Steve!
Seeing your sowbelly is always a treat, Gev!
Congrats, Dennis, and thanks for sharing the "feel-good" story!
Accolades to Charlie and Jack for their thoughtfulness!
Your AC looks like cream on top of your berries!
Peace out, Jer, your old Jay's Potato Chip pencil is outta sight!
U*XL, Dwight!
Thanks for your opinions on the Florist,
@Frailer!
I wondered if a design principle was to provide a substantial handle even though the blade is relatively short. I can imagine that long handle and short blade could maximize control and precision (like some whittling knives).
Thanks, Alan.
That bovine looks familiar. Do you have (or have you had) other knives with Nguni horn that I may have asked about, or have I seen the one with the raptor shield before and forgotten it?
Stockman of the Week is my first sowbelly stockman, an amber jigged bone Rough Rider that sold me on the pattern:
Plain Canoe of the Week is a Taylor-Schrade Old Timer (that, oddly, has no shield):
Fancy Canoe of the Week is a Marbles rams horn canoe:
