Boker & Oil Field Jack today. The Boker is a pretty recent acquisition for me and has been carried and lightly used so far. I've had the GEC since it's release but have only carried it a handful of times. Probably time I should let the new wear off the Oil Field jack and start cutting things with it. :D
Also had this fixed blade with me and used it to cut out all the leather and craft this sheath for it today.View attachment 1496450View attachment 1496451

Thank you, my friend. Hard to beat a good dram, a good knife, and a good smoke - combine those with a good hound and a book and that would pretty much be heaven.


Got something new in the mailbox today. Didn't quite kick the Barlow out of the pocket so they get to share the spotlight.

Thanks. :thumbsup: I'm really impressed with the quality of both of these.
I've noticed that you're enjoying your Boker Club knife as well. :thumbsup: Hard not to like 'em isn't it.:)

Agree, it hasn’t been out of my pocket for 2 weeks. Except the time it slipped out of my pocket and into the chair!:D How do you like the ironwood?

Thanks Jeff! Fortunately it doesn't get nearly so cold here, so I'm able to work outside most of the year, if needed. Here it was in the final oil finish stages one year ago.

I really need to try to play more, but at least it's nice to look at while I work on my computer all day.

I like the ironwood but every time I see a pic of the Micarta I think I need one in those covers as well. I believe I'd like the Micarta more, every time I see a pic of one its a struggle not to get my wallet out and place an order. :)
I can imagine the panic you must of felt when you thought you had lost yours.:eek:

At least your hand didn't seem to blister. :cool::thumbsup:

Yes, I was grateful for that John :) Fortunately, I was in the kitchen, so was able to put it under running water immediately, and then smothered it in hydrogel, and applied a proper burns dressing. It looks like there might be a little scarring, but I'm not too bothered about that (just wish I had a more interesting story) o_O :thumbsup:

I think I knew in the back of my empty mind that you were shutdown there. I hope you are able to get out for a hike soon, Jack.

It's hard to keep up, even here Dean :rolleyes: Thanks buddy :) :thumbsup:

Originally picked this up as a candidate for recovering, but just haven't gotten around to finding someone to do it and it keeps slipping down the list in priority of things to do. May as well just accept it and carry it a little more often. It is a great pattern, and one of my favorites from GEC.
