.Captivating wood, Dean!
Splendid pair, Paul; cool bolster "refinements" on the Texas Jack!
Thanks, Jack.
Beautiful stag lockback, José!
I agree about the Alox; look for it again in the not-so-distant future in a Best Looking Five thread near you.
You're pretty punny yourself, sir, with that prior/pry-er remark.
Fantastic German duo! What sort of wood does the Ankermesser have?
Your dad's barlow is a magnificent keepsake!
Thanks for the kind words, Bruce.
We're still using a Kenmore clothes dryer that my wife had when we got married over 35 years ago!
Thanks, JJ; that RR electrician is built like a tank!
Those Hammer Brands are cool as cracked ice!
Bang-up Barlow pair!
Thanks, Dean; it's sure a favorite of mine.
As Jed Clampett would say in his Beverly Hills mansion: "Wellll, doggies!!"
Gold standard pair, Steve!
That's a prize copperhead, Joe!
Sounds good! I ordered the canoe simply because I was curious what it would be like for $4 (may have jumped up to $6 by the time I decided to order one). But it's rock-solid and more than satisfactory.
Glad I could help you learn a new term, Dan.
The SBJr is looking fine!
Very handsome half whittler, Gary!
My sowbelly pic in direct sunlight with inky black shadows of the blades on a wall right behind the knife could easily make it look like a 6-blade congress!
Nice brace of Barlows, Jack!
I'm intrigued by that Barlow definition specifying a single blade.
Welcome back!
Versatile Black Friday combo, John. The long, smooth bolster on the Böker Barlow is a fetching feature!
Sweet Camillus pen knife, Jeff!
Are you enjoying sticking with that other pair all week?

Recently sent mine off for the same treatment, can’t wait to see it, yours looks terrific!
That is a great little Barlow!
This arrived Saturday evening. It’s been in my pocket since.
Thanks! Really enjoying them. The Otter Anchor has sapeli wood, very nice grain to it.
Beautiful Backpocket! Is that a recover? Or did Case put that wonderful stag on there?Case Backpocket...
That’s the handiwork of the forum’s own Glennbad!
I couldn’t agree more and it saddened me greatly. He was such a nice guy and good person he is missed beyond words can say.
Thank you. I found a very good epoxy that dries clear and can be polished to a shine. I like the idea of filling missing areas with it (rather than trying to hide the repair with new m.o.p.) so it's solid, but shows the original materials. I believe it's more historically accurate, or something...
That's a fine pocket chopper you have today.
My friend @ADEE has done a few good MOP repairs, but I'm not sure what type of epoxy he uses. Thanks my friend 
In my current rotation schedule, I left a "space" in most categories into which I could schedule a new knife I might get in a given category, rather than waiting until I'd gone through the entire 60-week (or however long it is) rotation and only scheduling new knives in the next new rotation. This week happened to be a week in which there was a "hole" in the Peanut-ish category (although I am carrying the Case peanut above as a representative of stag knives). I haven't acquired a new peanut-like knife in the 13 weeks since my current schedule began, so I decided to fill the slot this week with an AG Russell 1-arm knife, a recent gift (along with the pictured pocket slip) fromJohnDF , even though the knife has few characteristics in common with a Peanut.

Well done

Black and blue today
Thanks, Jack.
That knife makes me want to build a great big sammich... and then cleave it in half.
I think I might have to try that out my friend! 
Starting my Sunday with these two...
Crazy about your couple of classic, Jack!
I hope your scalded hand is getting closer to normal, Jack.
Sunday around the house pair today. The little Vic Alox was a gift from my youngest son. He spent a semester abroad when he was an undergrad at Cornell. The semester included a 6 week break! He got to visit the UK, Italy, France, Switzerland, Germany and Belgium (I'm sure I missed a few), I got a Swiss Army Knife!
Actually it's one of my treasures. I'll make sure it's passed on to one of my grandsons.
Have a safe and peaceful Sunday!
It is a timeless shot; outstanding!
Thank you kindly, Jack!!!
A very attractive and useful pair you have today; an outstanding slicer and a cool chopper will take care of business!
Going with these two mid century strawberry jacks by Robeson; one wearing composite ant the other in bone.
Starting off mine by @jsdistin re-built Lambsfoot, with Giraffe Bone covers, and a stainless Penknife by TEW 
Thank you, Jack.
I expect to see pictures of the cleaving.
Very cool coloring in that Giraffe bone... Beautiful Lamb.
The forum is acting funny this morning and I lost a bunch of quotes.
Thank you, Jack.

Thanks. I've never been accused of being too wise, so I'll have to see what the future brings I guess! HahaThanks for the cigar box info.
I hope you're recovering well from the wisdom teeth extraction, with no complications.
Since I had mine removed, people say I'm "not all there".
