Thats a REAL nice looking piece, wish they had that model without the sheild...the patina is coming along nicely.

I got this one yet again...some parts its black from use, when the 2012 comes in i'll likely work on that one for a year as well.
 
Thanks man. I kinda sorta got it because of you actually. With you posting photos of that beauty you have there it made me want one real bad. I loved everything about the 2011 knife except the cap lifter, so I went with this one instead. I've had it about a month-month and half and I love it.
 
So i started the day off with this

Sorta traditional, maybe not, but it's an awesome knife!

That's defo Traditional! Those are fine knives with really good filework that he French excel in. Excellent fit&finish.

Is that Compagnon or Compact? I have an Ebony in the former and a Stag in the latter. The Compact is a quality knife for the pocket, Le Compagnon is a lot bigger but works excellently as a picnic food prep knife- all stainless construction, no brass.

Today it will be CASE SBJ in stainless for me, Bermuda Green pocket worn.

Regards to all, Will
