This old but fancy Wostenholm penknife

I am carrying this canoe today. Bulldog "purple swirl" covers. I don't anticipate much knife kneed today though, but just having one in my pocket makes my get up complete. The knife looks a lot better than my get up however.

Ed,

Please tell me you're dressed in "purple swirl" as well?

Unsurprisingly, this one hasn't been far from my pocket, hands, or mind since it arrived on Monday:

Nice pic P. I imagine you're sleeping with it under your pillow

Those are surprisingly attractive, in the aggregate, er, purple swirl.

Today I'm totin' my oldest knife, an Camillus Cub Scout. I've had it since i joined the scouts over 30 years ago. The fact I didn't lose it as a child proves I'm a knife nut.

I had that exact one when I was young.

Priceless!

VERY nice Mike, and that's a beautiful pic :thumbup:

Jack, I was waiting to see if you'd catch that one. Never thought I'd find a reason to mention the Sticht belay plate in this forum. (I still have my spring loaded version for 9mm and 11mm rope.)

For "Stich" no less. LOL!

LOL! Thanks for posting it Elliott. My very first was the version without the spring, as I was regaled with horror stories by my first climbing partner, about the time he was climbing in the Alps, dropped his Sticht-plate on a belay-ledge, and it promptly boinged off and fell about 5000 feet!

Toting this little Stag beauty today.

 

[pertinux]

Behold the power of perspective, or maybe lack thereof?

I was puzzling out what knife this might be, thinking something in the 3"-4" range, when I realized whose post this was.

I like the picture.

One of my working pairs-
Western Boulder Electricians Knife with shrinking scales
Keen Kutter with simulated horn scales and re-profiled tips.
Both have great snap and are very tight and solid.
