What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Will Power]

I just had to take the Boker Prime Hornbeam Barlow with me on my hike today. What a fine companion.

Fine indeed! I like the simplicity of approach with that knife, minimal but not austere or ugly. Decent size blade too, nothing worse than large handle and puny blade.

Sweet 45 year old 293Y Trapper, Jeff.

Thank you kindly, Harvey! I’d claim that I got it before I was born, but nobody’d believe that whopper.

I’d like to see more of that steel handled knife. It looks very capable.

Yes sir, it's very clean in design. A solid performer nonetheless, with a very satisfying and trust invoking snap. The swedge is very nicely done too. It makes the spearpoint blade a lot less dull to look at compared to a SAK.

Got this with me today. I was the luck winner of Vaporstang GAW. The blades had already been worked a little so I just tuned things up a bit to my liking. Turned out from really nice to really really nice.
This C. Risner Indian Head stockman knife is well made with good F&F. A good companion to my only other stockman; a Buck 303 that was a gift from my Dad more than 40 years ago.

First crabs of the season. My carry: 3” paring Ecko Forge, mystery metal, kept extra dull for cracking claws and digging out lump. Happy Sunday everyone!

Edit: Adding photo because dogs...

I had this one in my pocket all day, a wonderful knife gifted to me in the recent @rishma GAW. Just a gem!

Look at those facial expressions! Dangling some crab in the air?

Great shot!

Thanks Vince, it's really difficult to capture the real brilliance of MOP,at least it is for me. The Camillus is a recover that was done before I bought it, whoever did it did a really nice job. With no pins visible they're glued on but it must be some good stuff,they've never shown a sign of coming loose.

Can't beat a Camillus #23 Big Jack Knife, unless it's a gussied up Big Jack!
