What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[solphilos]

I used to switch between a variety of knives weekly but lately I’ve had no desire to replace this one. I think I’m going to focus my efforts on Barlows from now on.

Totin’ one of my favorites.

I've seen a few complaints, but overall I think Case did a good job on that run of Barlows. I keep going back & forth between Barlows & stockmans, with the Churchill thrown in occasionally. And it's this one today.

130th Anniversary Opinel, serialized, with an anodized Sandvik blade and Hornbeam handle
(stable wood used for wood planes!)
Seems appropriate to carry a French knife today!
{scratches are on the scanner glass}

I only have one example that I can judge, but can’t say that I have any complaints. If anything I’d like for a slight stronger pull, but it’s not necessarily weak.
The Churchill is a good one, I’d carry mine more if I didn’t muck up the “cougar clawed” covers with a bad dye job. Will be sending it off to one of our resident modders when the opportunity arises.

Happy Wooden Wednesday
Time to let the wolf out for a run

I saw a werewolf drinking a Piña Colada at Trader Vic's....

Awesome, Charlie. The Opinel is one of my perfect knives.

Also today for me:

Felt like carrying this toothpick today.

Thank you very much Ron Fine Wooden Wednesday pair there today my friend

Thank you Jack!

 

[JJ Cahill]

Almost lunchtime here, and I've not had a chance to post here until now. Two of Charlie's

Two very fine specimens of modern US pocketknives, Jack; they certainly go together extremely well!

That's a looker.

I've been increasingly picking Barlows for my main knife to be paired with a SAK of some flavor. May be going the same route as you.

 

[OldHercDude]

Very nice trio.

Serrana in wood for Wednesday.

Thanks friend. Can’t go wrong with a Barlow
I just wish there were more in current production that are easy to obtain. Case has a nice selection but too few in CV.

I saw a werewolf drinking a Piña Colada at Trader Vic's....

I think I saw him, too. His hair was perfect?

I love that silly old song.

I love that silly old song.

I love the alliteration in "Little old lady got mutilated late last night...."

Eric's Jack has strong "staying power" paired today with a GEC Toothpick that I bought from a forum member here. He mentioned that it, along with others survived a fire but aside from some ill effects it is a great knife with years of service ahead.
