Notable stag pair, José!
Certainly no need to feel blue about that one, Dean!
That's a real beauty, Dean!
Sounds like a good plan, Taylor!1st forum knife of the week! I'm gonna carry one each day this week starting with our 2016 version. Sweet combo. The 35 frame is definitely a versatile frame for many different blade and tool combos

Thanks, Dylan.Thank you for the kind compliments, Gary. I enjoyed reading your tribute/memory of Ron - it was very special.

I certainly enjoy seeing your Portuguese knives, José!
Good point, John; thanks for spreading some Christmas cheer my way!...
That one has red handles, it'll work for a Christmas knife.![]()
That's a notable matched pair, John!
Feather and Flame!
Yikes!The premier announced yesterday that all of Ontario is going back to lockdown after Christmas, so I thought why not add a lockBACK today. This buck was my EDC for a while in the late 90s. My cousin broke the tip prying feet off a refrigerator. I fixed it, but that was the last time I ever lent out a knife without knowing exactly what it would be used for.

Capital canoe!
Not one of your "famous" golden brown bone pairs, but a fascinating couple of knives, nonetheless!Case and a Camillus today

I'm enjoying your recent Christmas photos!
Outstanding jigging on that one, JJ!
Very appropriate memorial, Harry.
Well-said, Jeff.I think it’s great seeing all of the knives associated with @Half/Stop.
He touched a lot of lives in a good way, which is a mark of a good man.
I used this electrician to cut some fuzz sticks to get my smoker going this morning, so I can smoke a hunk of chuck roast for tonight’s chili. But if I get back to working on this tele body, I’ll swap for the whittler Ron gave me. One of these cavities will have to be cut with hand chisels, and the coping blade on the whittler will clean up the cuts.View attachment 1478430View attachment 1478431

Thank you, Gary. It's hard to get a good dreidel game going over zoom, but I had a pleasant Hanukah, nonetheless.Feather and Flame!
Somehow all 8 days of Hannukah slipped by without my wishing you a good one, Rachel.I hope you successfully cradled your dreidel and could go for the Gimel!
Haha. Yeah I'd be suspicious about that too. Maybe I should get one of those pocket pry bars to lend instead of my knife.Yikes!
Whenever someone asks me, "Can I borrow your crowbar?" and I reply, "I don't have one with me", I get suspicious when they follow up with, "OK; can I borrow your knife?"![]()
Always, my friend.You're in Beast Mode, John!
Thank you very much, GT.That's a notable matched pair, John!
For a young guy, you’re pretty smart.Note to self...
When retired, do what Jeff did on 12.23.20.
Tinker with knives.
Make guitars.
Smoke meat.
...but don’t live where it’s cold. Stay in the south.
Have fun my friend. Looks like you are!
Wonderful photo, my friend. It makes me want to sit down, order an Americano coffee, and admire that knife.
Great composition, David. Words and photo.![]()
These till Monday,
Merry Christmas
Happy Hannukah
And good tidings to all,
and with THIS year coming to a close everyone have a blessed and VERY good New Year!
