I had lunch with Stuart @Duckdog on Thursday. We had a good hot meal at Whitlows on Wilson Ave in Arlington. This is one of the places that Stuart introduced me to last year when we first meet. Our meal yesterday was an Open Faced Turkey Sandwich. It was served on sourdough bread with mashed potatoes and gravy and cranberry sauce. They cook their own turkeys and it was delicious. Stuart and I were looking at three pockets full of fine traditional folders that he was totin for show and tell. The assortment consisted of Black Box Winchester’s and Schrade made Parker-Frost with Bone and Stag Bone handles. After lunch was over we both realized that we didn’t take any photos. :eek: :D Oh well! We’ll be sure and get some next week! :thumbsup: I was carrying my SBJ yesterday and again today! :thumbsup:

Today it is 2 Barlows for me . Henckel in Stag and a Queen made Cripple Creek that has been modified by a previous owner . The covers are now Culpepper Jigged Bone and it may have originally had 2 blades . Who ever modded it did a great job . Both knives are always carried in a Slip .

Just got this one the other day from a fine forum member that decided to let it go. I've been looking for one of these for 10+ years. You don't see them offered very often, and I was always late to the party. Too say I'm happy about finally having one is a huge understatement.

This Ron Lake/Paul Chen, CAS Iberia collaboration is as nice as any handmade knife I own, and nicer than many.

Lake's Interframe with the tab lock was a roaring success when it arrived on the scene and this collab made a Blade Magazine cover in 2002. I'd love to have a picture of that cover! This is 1 of 500 made. It's essentially a variation on a lockback. Ron Lake stated that these were a "Completely Hand-crafted Knife".

I'm going to carry it and use it carefully. I'm not one to put things away that I like. At 3 1/4" long and 5/16" across the spine it's very pocketable. It pinches open and locks up like a vault.

A few pics.

Little bit of a whirlwind yesterday. At work at 7:00, held over and didn’t leave until 7:00. Barely home 1 1/2 hours and called back to work until after 5:00 this morning. Up at 9:00 to deal with the ensuing chaos...but I’m thinking about knives:confused::confused: Carried the Boker yesterday and last night. When I finally get some pants with pockets on I’ll take Jr with me today.
