What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Prester John]

You got it, Vince! It is El Greco's View of Toledo. It is a custom one-off that French maker Roland Lannier did for me upon request. The model is his "Spring Heeled Jack." He used resin and layers of paper along with the pages I sent him of the El Greco from an art book I own. The knife has carbon fiber liners, the resin covers, and the back spring is a piece of g10 sandwhiched between stainless steel. It is extremely light for a knife that is about 4.5" in handle length. The blade is a drop point in 14c27N and flat ground to an extremely thin edge. I can't find a picture of mine open, so here's a photo of one of Roland's own models (from his website), using pages from a comic book:

He did a fine job. Never heard of 14C27n steel. I have a couple of 14C28n and one 13c26n. And I have heard of 12C27n. I think the 14C28n is the upgrade. Very nice steel.

The screwdriver blade on my TL-29 came in handy quite a bit today - servicing surface mount part feeders. I also have my case peanut in my pocket.

Does anyone know who might have made this knife? The stamp is mostly worn away, but maybe someone recognizes what's left. I see POY (maybe ROY)....USA.

I walked down by the river today and carried my Case medium CV stockman and AG Russell micarta handled, ATS-34 steel melon tester (which is a very long knife).

Toting a couple Case jacks today.

Perhaps the Royal Knife Company?
That "P" could be an "R" that's worn away and the fourth letter looks like an "A".

Still carrying the Calf Roper on a Wyoming hunt. Decided I needed a change in luck so I grabbed the Ruger No 1 in 6.5x55 Swede.

14C28N is correct. I had it wrong. Not the first mistake I've made this week!

Giving the Boker a rest, going back to the #55 today...

Oh man! I really like that knife! I just looked that up, that run was before I got on the GEC bandwagon, wonder if another run of those will be coming soon. Beautiful!

Thank you.
I'm sure a lot of us would like to see another run of #55s.

I think John’s right.

I have a bunch of TL-29s and still one comes along I’d never known about.

A post on the second page suggests that Utica made Royal Brand knives. The Scout knife at least
