What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

The one in the center TC / Tidioute / Thursday

Pocketed this 7 dot 6232 Texas jack made in the 70's. I don't carry it often, partly because it's too pretty to mar up and partly because the blade pull is a little too stout for my taste. It sure does snap though, gotta pay attention when closing the blades. Paired it with a Schatt & Morgan Heritage spear blade today.

Those Schatt & Morgan Heritage knives are all so beautiful, an excellent shot. Thank you for sharing!

Hope everyone is having a good day Carrying my Hartshead Barlow and Charlie's Radio Jack today

The Radio Jack makes an outstanding partner for your HHB; love that old Heathkit Ad, a perfect background!

Beautiful TC. If you don't mind, what is the handle material? I haven't seen that one before.

This one has been along for the ride all week.

Yes! Crank that original blackface 65 Pro Reverb till it makes your toes curl! Out of the dozen amps that I sold off when I stopped playing regularly, I had to keep the red Z (it’s a scientific fact that red amps have better tone) and a 71 Supro Thunderbolt. The Z is just so hard to beat.

That craftsman is such a cool whittler, btw. I’ve enjoyed seeing it this week!

Thanks for the comment on the Craftsman. It’s nice to stick with one for a stretch!
I know that Blackfaces get all the attention~ for good reason. The woman I play with in one band has a 1965 BF Twin that is 100% original. She refuses to even change any tubes, caps, or resistors... And it is a great sounding amp. My PR is a ‘76 Silverface. It had always been a bit of a dream amp, and I found a complete chassis on the auction site. Bought NOS tubes and sent it to the tech for a complete going over. I built a cab out of cherry, bought some Weber speakers, a new reverb tank, etc.

It’s a great amp. It breaks up in a delicious way~ crank it up and use the guitar volume to control it.

Love the radio knives.

Thank you kindly good sir

At least Earl could stay warm in his disguise!

Yeah, and he needed it with a team of Sherlocks after him as well as the rozzers! Really nice looking Clauss

Thanks.
I had heat exhaustion, I think it was, at Hydrogeology Field Camp. I had the muscle cramps, cottonmouth, headache, irritability; but I kept waiting for the symptom of slow-wittedness, so I'd be sure. Finally I realized I'd been waiting on my wits for quite some time.

Glad to hear you're OK Jer

I always thought of that Maple Handled knife as the Canuck version!!

Beautiful work on your outstanding Fender Pro Reverb amp, Jeff; the Barlow and the Tele look very nice, too!

 

[JJ Cahill]

Have these two with me for some fairly nasty work in the maintenance and storage rooms of my mom's place.

So good. I know exactly what your amp sounds like. Yes please. Love the joinery on that cab. Looks like a fun project.

Oh yeah...good lookin Barlow as well

Thank you, Jack! That's a rather dashing group of Sherlockians in the photo.

Thanks, Quiet. I feel the same way about that series. Plus they just have an old time look about them to my eyes.

Thanks my friends! I really like this Clauss. Nice half stops and is still snappy. A good size and selection of blades too. Not as cool as Earl, but still...
