What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Funny how a little thing made of steel and various handle materials bring some of us joy, huh?
Does it look as good as that, or is it just some photographer’s wizardry?
Thank you Jeff. I’m no wizard. That’s for sure.:) No, it is one handsome knife, even without any post processing. The Ebony is as dark black as any that I’ve owned. F&F is as good as the best of the GEC builds. The image is definitely post processed, though.:D

Thank you JJ. Love the quiet muted tones, yet razor sharp and shadow detailed. Cool knives.
Thank you for your very kind words, Harvey!!!
I requested and received from a kind Soul, an Ebony #44. I’ve been jonesing for 2 years. Joy

Absolutely stunning ebony covers on your new gunstock beauty; your strawberry lamb makes a very tasty partner, magical images too!:cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:
 
Simplicity Sunday for me today, it's a hot sunny day 26c and at this time of year it never really get's dark either, just a twilight between 1 am and 4am:cool: Single spring disappears in the pocket and I value the small Pruner blade-show it a clamshell and the package expires:D

I found a place to buy some great hickory handles (Beaver-Tooth Handle Co.) for a boy's axe and an 8 lb. splitting maul that I had. I hung them today and to help with cutting the packaging and trimming the wood shavings, I toted an old German-made hunting knife that I got from the family of an old hunting buddy who passed away ten years ago. (Yesterday, I posted a picture that included a box of 16 ga. shot shells that are part of a case the family also gave me at that time.) The knife is an ubiquitous Unimart made in Solingen for the USA market. Thick round stag handle with an inset compass that is stuck on N. He would have been proud of the job that I did today on the axe and maul, but would have offered "advice" all during the process.

Good thing you picked it today. One more day, and it would have been as long as your leg. How do you like the Opi hawkbill?

Nice post, Stuart. Thanks!

As a typical husband who’s been lambasted for refusing to stop and ask for directions, I see the beauty of your compass.

You’re quite right about that. Those zucchini’s grow fast once they get going. They amazed me how much they grew in a few days time. As for the Opinel Hawkbill/Pruner I love it. I’ll make sure it’s always with me when I’m in the garden.
