What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

This 1930s Cattaraugus scout designed for the BSA will be a fun tote for today. :)
Thank you JJ. Your BSA Scout is not only beautiful, but has a fine assortment of tools. Great image.


Thank you Harvey, nice choices for today :) I love your photography :cool: :thumbsup:
I appreciate your nice words. Everyone should go to the Guardian thread and see the brilliant images of your weekend hike. Cheers.

I feel fortunate to have a matching canoe
A very cool pair of canoes, GT.
 
Happy 4th everyone, have fun and be safe:thumbsup:

Those are beautiful and patriotic knives, Paul! :thumbsup::thumbsup::)

Right! :thumbsup:
Thanks, Dean; I'm especially ready if a knife swap meet ever breaks out! :D
Admirable Farmer-Jack pair that you posted way back when; your green Alox looks better than when I had it! ;):thumbsup::thumbsup:

Thanks, Dean; they are attractive covers, as is the Case amber jigged bone on your 6347! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Definitely a knife with some weight and length (5" closed) to it, Dean. It rides great in the leg pocket of carpenter pants, but I don't know if I could carry it comfortably in other pants. :rolleyes:

Thank you for your comments, Gary! :)
 
Glad you liked it, Jeff :); I remembered seeing a post of yours about glass bottleneck slides and wondered if you'd ever tried a pocket knife.


Thanks, Jeff :); I feel fortunate to have a matching canoe, and really enjoy the wood they use:

Lot of variety in that trio of classic, Jeff


- GT
Thanks! Classic. I like that!

I love that my retirement has allowed me a second career ~ one in which these knives get used almost daily.

I didn’t remember your other curly maple knife ~ what a pair!

Lastly, yes, definitely. A Schrade 293 Trapper is just about ideal as a slide. A Zippo lighter also works, but one of the best is an 11/16 deep well socket.
 
Nothin' Fancy "work" knives for a bit.
Marbles MR278 "Demo" knife (until the (BTI) Old Timer 23OT Scout/Camp knife ordered yesterday gets here, anyway.)
(All BTI) Old Timer 858 Stockman, 280OT Barlow, and 25OT 2 blade slipjoint folding hunter.
 
Those are beautiful and patriotic knives, Paul! :thumbsup::thumbsup::)



Thank you for your comments, Gary! :)

Thank you Dean, I like your small copperhead so much I bought one just like it;):thumbsup:

Beautiful knives Paul! :cool: Great to see you here my friend! Hope y’all are doing well! :) :thumbsup:


Thanks Jack! :) :confused:

Thanks Ron, it's been a very busy summer, so looking for a slower pace come fall to spend more time here. Doing well my friend and hope the same for you and Pam:thumbsup:
 
View attachment 1372439 Proof that I did hit the wild black raspberry patches in my backyard. :D

If I get out there every couple of days, the bounty will go on for at least another week.

Then, the domestic blackberries will be ripening. I have a patch about 20’ by 50’ that grew out of canes that spread through the neighbor’s fence. They originally bought and planted them, but ended up ripping them out. I’m glad to have them, although I understand why they didn’t want them anymore ~ the thorns are wicked.
