I love the fish shield he uses. My dad was a die hard fisherman from the time we lived in Florida for a year, he caught the bug and the gear just kept piling up after that for the next 35 years!

I’ve noticed a lot of discussion on the #77 Barlow’s, so I decided to carry one of my favorites today.The Lambsfoot, well that’s just a given!
Same here. I was inspired to carry my spear/coping 77 Barlow in canvas micarta. It has the best fit and finish of any GEC in my collection. This is a special one for me. My very first 77, and now impossible to ever have made by GEC again, as they refuse to allow canvas micarta to appear in their Northfield line. Also carried is my new obsession, the "SwissTank".

Thanks Buzz! I’ve got a single clip in Bone Canvas. I wonder if the ban also applies to SFO’s?Same here. I was inspired to carry my spear/coping 77 Barlow in canvas micarta.

I think I will go with my Case mini trapper today since it was raining and is hot and humid now.

Thanks for the canoe comment, Tom.
I like your Wednesday wood, but I don't recognize the folder.
- GT
Thanks GT, the folder is a GEC that lived in my watch pocket for quite a while, I have long since forgotten the model number (a #36 perhaps?). It was a lot darker color when I got it, but has worn well. Nice carries, it looks like the Sabre Daddy barlow has some stories it could tell
.These two today, the Pioneer X has become a near constant companion whether I picture it here or not. It is in my vehicle, or laptop back, or in a pocket, always close. I want to make a horizontal leather belt sheath for it, but I have zero leather working skills, might be a good project to begin the learning process.
