End of day post, had this one today and put it to use on some rogue threads
No food prep, but certainly in it's future
Thank you for this wonderful knife Duncan
...
Select Sunday
Apricot a day keeps the knife voodoo at bay
Sublime lambsfoot knives, Harvey & Paul & Will!
That Buffalo cutlery company is making quite a splash!
Dave, you should ask your wife to paint that "still life knife" for you!
Saturday SBJ.
Striking Swayback, Dean!
(The "3 coins in the fountain" are also nice.
)
That custom Buck is a champ!
Dwight, I'm not a huge fan of Barlows as a knife pattern, but I sure enjoy the variety of bolster stamps they bear, and your Hammer Brand stamp is outstanding!
These two the last couple days. Cadet and No. 6.

Man, that pair can do about everything I'd ever ask a knife to do!
Sometimes realizing that makes me feel pretty silly about all the other knives I have, and want to get in the future.
This came in the mail. I like it.
I got this in the mail today.
It’s in the pocket now!
...
Congrats on the fantastic new arrivals, Dave & Ron!
Dave, the saw cut bone on yours is exceptional! Ron, the covers on yours remind me of a cereal my wife sometimes gets - Great Grains!
I put this one in my pocket this morning and haven't regretted a thing. Kinda perked me up!

Splendid knife, Stuart!
To my inexperienced eye, it appears to be a coke bottle coffin pattern!
Nice stag on that Sowbelly, Gary!
Thanks, Lance.
Impressive job of inletting the propeller shield, too.

But I remember how the topic of Spam came up...when I was a kid, I used to love peanut butter and
liver sausage sandwiches. Ever tried that?
Mom used to buy it in a waxed paper tube.
It's been about 50 years. My Mom knew how to stretch the food budget.

That's certainly a blast from the past, Jeff!
I never had PB and liver sausage, but I sure scooped my share of the stuff out of the tube to spread on bread, add mustard, and stick into my school lunch box/bag! We also called it liverwurst, and one of my grandmothers called it Braunschweiger, I think.
We'll go on vacation soon, and I often have a sandwich for lunch while we're in our rented cottage. The past few years, it's become a tradition for me to have summer sausage on my sandwich, but maybe I should go with liverwurst this year!
...
Needless to say I LOVE this knife,
Anyhoo... I'll try to be original, please bear with me
If you got it, flaunt it, CDan!
Stunning grain on your knife's handles!
GT its kinda like me old skool, wearing hi-tech skinny jeans
Dave, you are SO fashion-forward, compared to me!
I need your advice: do they make skinny carpenter jeans, or won't I be able to get my fencing pliers out of the leg pocket?
...
Thanks Gary; I can fully relate!!!
Thanks again, Gary!!! I ponder the same question each time I peruse the remarkable collection of beauties in the BF "Old Knives" thread!!!
You have assuredly covered your "cutlery bases" as demonstrated in your 3 great choices!!! I am really liking the sowbelly pattern that you clearly know so well!
...
Glad you're liking your sowbelly, JJ, and thanks, as always, for your positive comments.
Today's tote will be my cutlery version of "Surf and Turf"; an Abalone Winchester "black box" Congress and a Bovine Robeson PE Pen.
"Surf and Turf"
Another exemplary 25, Trav; handsome jigging on this one!
I'll post my quotidian quartet as I do most Sundays:
