Sometimes you have to be out of step, when the jigged bone is calling to you. That Baxter has plenty of life, for sure. Even broken blades can cut.

Thank you very much Jack!!! Very cool "something new and something old" pair for you today; I'll bet that youngster can take some lessons from the old Baxter on a "keen edge!"![]()
Handsome pair of knives for you, Jack!Did you polish the stag handles of your HHB recently? The white gleams in that pic!
Thanks for the compliments you sent my way.![]()
Your stag HHB / ebony gunstock is a splendid pairing, Jack!

Hope your check up was aces! I'm due for one in February.
I toted these two old hunters today, both Case 65 SABs from 1940-1964, one in green, the other in red. As comfortable in hand as old boots are on your feet.

Smile worthy indeed! Wow.
I looked out and there he was, on the ground, with the defendant standing over him with a knife in his hand.Santa had an accident...

With that blade and the micarta, the ‘17 BF knife looks like a great user. But they don’t get shown much here.
You’re describing all of my knives!So this one's not rare, not particularly valuable, and certainly not one of the nicer knives I own. However, it is the first knife I bought when I decided to start "collecting" a couple of years ago so I decided to slip it in my pocket today in place of my normal GEC Eureka Jack

Oh no!Santa had an accident...

Smile worthy indeed! Wow.
Thank you kindly Tom!!! Another delightful couple for you today; there's not much you can't do pairing a fixed blade with a jack (Barlow!)![]()
I may re-shape it into a small Sheepsfoot at some point, or at least just tidy it up a bit. Unfortunately, there's only half the nail-nick there, so I'm a little limited - might have to be a tiny Rope blade!Nice pairing Tom
Hope everyone is having a good Friday 13th![]()
Carrying my 2018 Guardians Lambsfoot SFO, and an Old Friend in the form of an IXL Sheepsfoot today
