I bet it is my friend! :cool: Thank you my friend, my two most carried knives of 2020 I think, the double bolsters, shield, and polished blades don't make the big Jack easy to photograph though! :D :thumbsup:

Thanks, Jack. :) I think I've mentioned before that the "pose" used in that AC pic is probably my favorite knife pose because of its triumphant look. ;)
Couple of striking swaybacks for you! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool: You don't suppose your back problems could be related to all the swayback knives you have, do you?? :eek::rolleyes:

Is the blade on the left a spey or a smaller clip?

It is a small clip blade, very handy.

What can you tell a steel novice like me about 154-CM, John?

I had to research it too, GT.
Turns out it's an improved 440C.
They added molybdenum for hardness and use an electrical current to melt it in a vacuum.

It's always fun as long as nobody takes it seriously. :)

This reminds me a lot of slingshots my granddaddy would make. He always had an old bicycle tire tube handy, even though there was no bike to go with it, and a piece of leather.
Nice knife
Thanks for the memories

Thank you my friend, I'm flattered :) I took that ash fork from this old tree, which sits close to the site of an ancient castle :) :thumbsup:

A very impressive brace :cool: I like the look of that Muslin Micarta, did you polish or wax it at all? Reason I ask is that my two GECs in it are rather dull and matte. All steel too, very good!

Only thing I can nitpick about that Barlow is it has a Clip master, when it is well-known that SPEAR is the superior blade...;):D:thumbsup:

Thanks, Will

Thanks Will, no polish or wax to the covers, it's just been stored in a tri fold knife roll. I have noticed that other similar light covers, micarta/bone have darkened over time in the rolls I use. No complaints as I like how they age that way over time. My smooth bone 38/77/15/47 and others have all darkened to some extent being kept that way:thumbsup:

Now the Clip vs Spear blade controversy will continue:D;)

For Blue Monday. My wife found this knife when she took her granddaughter to the park a few years ago.

Hey! i only laid it down for a minute!:D

Wives are awesome. Back before we were even married, but were dating, if drinking beer, playing foosbal, and seeing live music can be called dating, my future wife found a Victorinox Champ on the quad outside the student union. Back then, she didn’t carry a purse, and it was “too fat” for her tight blue jeans.
I’ve been holding it for her now for forty years.:D
