What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Mayonardo]

Is one of my favorites.

There was a time when I thought “fancy” Barlows were anathema, as the Barlow was originally designed and built to a price point—and a very low one at that.

As I’ve aged, I’ve become a little less judgmental.

Kim asked me to post her carry for today. S&M Small Toothpick with ATS-34 steel. Blade etch that you can't read says "1 of 30". I'm actually jealous of this knife, and I bought it for her!

Beautiful knives Jeff. The character in your rugged hands adds a great deal.


The Gordo by Dave FerryView attachment 1171251

Thanks much! Hadn’t thought about the hands other than trying not to show the garden soil under my nails!
That Gordo is special! Is that burl?

2015 Single Sheep, not a mattress bag is safe in the joint

I’ll bet it would make quick work of all those mattress tags. You know you want to...

Just received this #14 from a fellow BF member today. This is my second one and it’s a small but mighty little knife.

Beautiful yellow bone. Just perfect.

Felt fortunate to get one of these when it dropped. Probably the first time I have been fast enough.

That’s sooo nice! Good time to be quick!

Came in yesterday, in my pocket today. Schatt & Morgan Scout knife. They call it a Keystone, but was made in 2013. Was hard to get a good pic of the liners with the light and time I had, but this will do. So much that I like about this knife. And one of the sharpest knives I've ever had out of the box. I'm missing 1/2" x 3/4" patch of arm hair because I wasn't expecting it! Some flaws with the fit. Blade rub, particularly bad between the punch and the spear. You can see it on the spear in the pile side pics. Back springs not flush at open, particularly on spear and cap lifter. Gap on one edge between scale and bolster at opposite ends of knife, looks like the stag wasn't cut square. I like it and I'm keeping it, but is there a way to fix some of these issues? Particularly the blade rub and back springs.

A beautiful ole Robeson Jack! That bone is special Gev!

Thank you, Sir !

Really pleased with this new to me old Schrade cut co.

Love the knife and photograph

Thank you so much, Gev. I had to look up “delimitation”. That look up led to this... https://getpocket.com/explore/item/hermann-hesse-on-what-trees-teach-us-about-belonging-and-life

Your Robeson Tear Drop has a perfect vintage look to it. Beautiful knife.

Much appreciated, fine Sir !

Beautiful fixed blade Dwight

Thank you Tom.

Thank you. I think it probably is burl. Dave (Horsewright) said it is dyed stabilized maple.

It is wooden Wednesday, after all...

kai76 That MOP Cut Co. is a mighty nice looking find, Nick. Congratulations.

Thank you! That lambs foot you have there is an ancient beauty.

Love the knife and photograph

Thanks Gev! I always enjoy your well composed photos, like the one today. Your old Robeson has perfect bone and patina.

Beautiful trio! I like all 3 very much, especially the old ebony jack.

Haven't posted in this thread in awhile, been so busy lately. Just been dropping in a bit here and there when I get a minute. Anyway I carried this Queen today while doing some landscaping stuff for the boss. Made short work of trimming these vines, the little caterpillar was pretty laid back. The big red carpenter ants that fell out and all over me, not so much!

I thought the caterpillar was a design in the scales!!! Would look brilliant if it was. Might be an idea for knife designers.
