This is a special knife, beautiful photo.![]()
I do miss the old knife card displays. You could find them next to almost every cash register in almost every store and diner. The good 'ol days.It is a shame that simple little jack knives are not everywhere!
Pick the Snake Wood.Decisions, decisions.
Thanks, Ron.I do love the OO 73's!
When it comes to size, blade shape and steel (D2), I think the Queen Country Cousin is tops. The only negative in my experience is all the delrin handled versions I have had came with blade play. I had one micarta handled knife that didn't, the pull was heavier on that guy though. I gifted that knife away. Silly me.
Thanks, and I agree~ the 293 is mighty fine!Sounds like the good life to me. Tractor, family, sharp things, check check check.
Love that yellow 293. Great pattern. I’ve got to hunt a good one to add to my stash. Have a great one!
Wow~ I read this as you cleaned and strained your back in April!Thanks Barrett and I did. I clean and stained my deck in April![]()
Mighty pretty Trapper!
That Sycamore is beautiful.
Thank you for the kind words, Joshua. Also appreciate the analogy.You make every knife look good. So good, I made an analogy:
Proportion of Harvey's photography consumption : proportion of appreciation of appearance of knives :: proportion of alcohol consumption : appreciation of human appearance.
Good morning everyone! It’s Tuesday and the heat index is only going to be 105F today! Whoa what a relief it is!I’m carrying my Wright’s Rosewood big ’un Lambsfoot. For random Tuesday I “opened the drawer and pulled out” this Tidioute #92 Talon with Goldenrod Jigged Bone from 2014. Y’all stay safe out there!

Thanks - have a great day as well.Thank you sir! I've been admiring your whisky bone as well. Have a great one!
Thanks, Barrett.
Yes, it's a #73 Liner Lock.
Solid Man's knife with a good #7 pull.
My Boys would call it a #10 and ask for a different knife.![]()
I remember. Between the chewing gum and the "unbreakable" combs.I do miss the old knife card displays. You could find them next to almost every cash register in almost every store and diner. The good 'ol days.
You are just joking right? That is a left handed knife isn’t it?That’s funny!I actually do have one #73 LL, but someone at the factory put mine together backwards!

I was hoping they’d follow up this new run of #23’s with some new #73’s, but it doesn’t sound like that’s the plan.
