What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[315]

Need to start adding some character to this 66...

I'm carrying these two today: a Case medium jack and the Sodbuster, Jr. my Dad gave me when I was 17 (1971).

Nice set. You obviously took better care of your Sodbuster than most of us took care of our things when we were 17!

Sorry for the low quality picture, but it’s getting dark early!

Yessir!!

Thanks, you have a nice one too. I know theres another member here that has one he uses but I haven't seen him post in a while. The natural stags were serialized and the burnt stag was not. Mine is burnt stag. I think there were only around 20 something of each. They do not come by often but I've seen a few, none that I could manage to acquire though.

thanks for the info! Funny thing is, I’d trade mine for a copperhead jigged bone in a second and I’ve never seen one of those up for sale. Every cover except that one lol.

edit: I may not trade, hard decision cause I’m bonded with this one now, but I’d pay a lot more than I should for one hah!

For Old Friends Friday, I had lunch with Half/Stop . To keep Ron's attention focused, I toted these oldies from a recent carry, Ulster and Cattaraugus:

Note, that was not lunch. And I toted this one by Gary Cunningham:

Later, we spent some time in the knife piles that pass as my "orderly collection", looking at some recently uncovered old "new friends".

Thanks for lunch Stuart! I really enjoyed the visit! I was Totin these two for show and tell with Stuart. I knew he hadn’t got to see a Waynorth Lambsfoot in person. I think he was impressed!

I also came away with some unexpected gifts. Thanks Stuart! You’re a generous friend indeed! I’ll post some photos later in the weekend! See you soon my friend!

I ended up switching old Toffeewings for the loom-fixer.

Thanks Harry, I do use it although not as often as I'd like to, it is a solid little tank of a knife with superb f&f, absolute SOLID blade with a wicked cool swage The antique Westinghouse Micarta is much nicer in person
