Nice work, Rachel. It looks great.

Actually, that's the before picture. Here's a few from this morning.

We finally got some chilly weather overnight, so there's a little sleet on the Spring weeds.

Totin’ very old Case Tested today. About a hundred years and who knows how many thousands of great knives between the beautiful Barlow r8shell posted above and this old survivor!

r8shell , I do not know what this type of jigging is called. It reminds me of early Ka Bar jigging. I did get confirmation from a well known expert that they are the original covers which he would call nice green bone.

Cut up a whole lotta cardboard with this guy.

Nice! Would that be called "corn cob" jigging?

Rosewood Schatt handles have really darkened really darkened since when I first acquired it 4 years ago.
Also a formerly white bone RR canoe that I dyed to a sort of appaloosa effect.View attachment 1278948

Thanks Jack, much appreciated. Outstanding pairing there my friend

I have these two with me today.

A twofer of stag Winchesters posted today. A very nice looking knife as is the scout/camper with it.

 

[Pàdruig]

A couple in Stag for me today.

 

[MolokaiRider]

Such a great knife. Used it today to check growth and used the dark wood as contrast to inspect pollen.

Big Knife of the Week is a Remington Big Daddy Barlow (thanks, Shawn):


Miscellaneous Knife of the Week is a little Rough Rider whittler with a somewhat uncommon spear main:


Watch pocket Knife of the Week is a Chinese Imperial mini canoe. A pleasant coincidence is that my budget canoe this week is the regular size version of the Imperial cracked ice canoe, so I'll post a pic of the pair together:

Up way too early for a 14 hour day. Had a Case with me at work but no photos. Grabbed a Schrade 881 when I walked in the door and changed clothes because it’s the first knife I saw.

 

[ccsavage]

This one again.

Thank you JJ. Your GEC calf roper looks like a very nice pocket pal.

Thank you very much JJ , nice choice

Thank you kindly Jack!!!

That's a smasher Gary

Wonderful pair JJ

Morning folks, hope everyone has had a good week, it's nearly the weekend Carrying my Hartshead Barlow again today, together with an Old Friend, in the form of this Ulster Scout Knife, a kind gift from @scrteened porch

 

[Pt-Luso]

Today with SAK alox from the Dutch army KL 89!

 

[5K Qs]

At work with a Case today...

Those recent Case sawcut Barlows have a nice vintage look to them!

Two for Tuesday totin': a Schrade (1946-1973) and his PAL (1940-1945)

...
- Stuart

A pleasing pair, Stuart, but that PAL is a real stand-out!

Enjoying the feel of this one with the lowered secondary. Great length overall as well.View attachment 1277964

Long, lissome looker, Joshua!

A juniper wood covered Le Thiers Compagnon for Wednesday.

Magnifique, JJ!!

...
Gary, I’m glad I can do my small part as an enabler whenever possible!

Thank you Gary, that's very kind

LOL! Great analogy my friend You never know when a serious cutting opportunity might present itself. Be prepared, be vigilant!

Ever since reading the Harry Potter novels with my daughter, Mad Eye Moody's admonition "Constant vigilance!" have been our words to live by!

Hanging out on the beach with my Lag on this Wooden Wednesday:

Sultry setting for your langorous Laguiole, Vince!
Are you warming up for some kind of major April Fool's prank? I just about fell for this one!

Back to the little 897UH for awhile.

Classy Uncle Henry, Jeff!

My stag LC by John Lloyd View attachment 1278228 View attachment 1278229

Superb knife, Alan, and I aspire to someday take a close-up shot like yours!

...
5K Qs - Thank you kindly, GT. Yes, it is a broom. You have a sweet collection.
...

Thanks, Harvey.

For Wooden Wednesday, GEC Huckleberry Boy's Knife in ebony and Case Slimline Trapper in rosewood.

Terrific twosome of timber-clad knives, Dean!

...
That's a Canoe I'd like. I like when two blade knives have different profiles. Beautiful S&M, GT
...

...
Great cutlery grouping Gary; your Schatt & Morgan canoe is quite an attractive pocket tote!

Thanks, John & JJ (I'm trying to decide whether that S&M may have a lambsfoot blade). John, I'm with you on wanting some variety in the blade shapes on a multi-blade knife, so I'm always puzzled that I've become so fond of typical spear/pen canoes.

I haven't seen your gorgeous smooth tobacco bone Sowbelly Stockman in a while, Gary! Wonderful knife.
...

Gary your RR Sowbelly is a beautiful knife my friend!
...

Thanks, Dean & Ron.

Got the top one today, my middle daughter sent me a gift card, I made good use of it well, my wife doesn't think so but hey, it was my birthday present....

Belated birthday greetings, Gary; superb pair of Otters!

On this wet Wednesday, I'm indoors (mostly) and only totin' wee wood.

...
- Stuart

Good wood, Stuart! Any idea who made that knife for LL Bean?

Thank you very much, but honestly I don't know the age of that knife, Gary.

Another series of your magnificent knives, Gary!!

Thanks, José.

Today in my pocket is the Portuguese Curel.
...

A very handsome knife, José! What is the handle material?

Our rain totals are approaching the 5” mark since yesterday. I’m setting here this morning enjoying a cup of coffee and these two I’ve picked for today. I’ve got a 2019 Guardians Ironwood Lambsfoot SFO from Jack Black and a Northwoods Hawthorne Clip Blade in Orange Giraffe Bone.

Wonderful wood, Ron! Sounds awfully wet in your neck of the woods.

Totin' the Queen Serpentine Single Blade Jack again.
I did discover that the blade is stainless after cutting several apples with no patina.
I'm not sure what type of stainless steel it is, but it's holding an edge like a champ.
This is going to be a regular carry for work, it just suits that environment perfectly.

Your Queen looks very monarchical, John!

Here are my for today.
View attachment 1278660

Tremendous trio! What model is that longest knife??

A Wright Lambfoot in walnut, and Craftsman Whittler ought to cover my needs today.View attachment 1278662

Definitely a capable pair, Jeff; I'll bet they could handle the demands of most days!

Ulster Jack and a SW 879

...

Dynamite duo, Steve! (Where do you find all your winter sunshine??? )

Thanks Jeff! I’ve had the Hawthorne for several years. I traded a Blue Camel Bone Fremont for it. It’s a knife I really like a lot, but it definitely doesn’t get enough pocket time. Come to think of it, I’ve got way too many knives that fall into that category.

May I suggest that you'd benefit from a rotation schedule, Ron?

...
I have these two with me today.

You definitely left that recent knife show as a big winner, Tom!

5K Qs - Good looking Remington Big Daddy Barlow, GT.

I appreciate your assessment, Harvey.
