Carried the yellow copperhead again today.


I have a confession to make...I carried the copperhead with me today on a trip to a knife store and....and...I didn't buy anything

Mediocre change:
Just swapped out the BTI 858OT for a BTI 858OTB.
"What's the difference?" you ask? The OT has saw cut Delrin covers, and "440A equivalent" 7CR14MoV blade steel.
The OTB has genuine saw cut bone covers, and "440C equivalent" 9CR18MoV blade steel.
Oh yeah ...n my examples. the OT's clip point is 10 DPS, while the Spey/Budding/Grafting and Sheepsfoot are at 15 DPS.
The OTB has all three blades at 15 DPS.

I don't know why 440C and "440C equivalent" holds a working edge better at 15 DPS, compared to 440A (and 1095 or T10) at 10 DPS.*
For some unknown to me reason(s), 440C won't hold a working edge as long at 10 DPS.

OTB is on the left. As you might be able to see, there is a slight color difference between the real bone and Delrin.

Thank you very much, Joshua. I've already released my inbox.
Yes it is a Thiers Pocket (10 cm closed) by Fontenille Pataud, for me it is a wonderful knife, it has been the knife that I carry practically every day.
I happen to be eyeing a Capuchadou, but I'm still a little hesitant.

I really like my Capuchadou—extremely well made. I usually carry it on Sundays because it just feels like a more elegant knife than a daily user.

I read about getting the blade reprofiled, looked at the picture, and thought, ugh! Why would anyone do that?
Then I realized I was looking at the punch.

Sorry about that. I could see how it could come across that way. I just really like the shape of the punch on this knife.

 

[lambertiana]

Nice! Elephant, mammoth, or warthog?

 

[Old Hunter]

An Eagle Scout... I salute you.

Thank you John. Over 50 years now since those days, but remember them fondly. OH

My son is due to arrive any day now, so I thought I'd carry something small and unobtrusive (and hospital-friendly) until then. I might change my mind, but there's not much that these two can't do in a pinch.

Good luck!

Congratulations! Whatever you carry will definitely be over shadowed when the moment happens.

Cleaned out my go bag and realized I should post these, they were in the bag not on me all the time, but I did have them close by most of last week.

The Case lives in the bag all the time, its my improvisational eating knife if I need it. I tend to get a good dry salami and block of cheese if I need a snack out around town.

The Rough Rider, was for whittling, since it is a whittler. Been wanting to start a wood chain, had hoped to do it as a time killer last week. Didn't work out. Also, been wanting another new whittler styled knife, but I never use this one. Figured I'd better see if I actually want what I think I do... still don't know. Lol.

Looks like you've got things covered! Congrats dad!

After talking at a screen all day, a little wood carving was a pleasant change of pace...

 

[Ice Tigre]

Today's;

Chip whittler I made years ago out of a Camillus 76 I got with all three blades broke off, and my EDCForums exclusive Queen moonglow stockman(D2). Haven't had either one out of the vault into daylight for a while.

 

[Jack Black]

Thanks Jack!!! They are a very fun pairing.

You always have such wonderful metal Sheffield totes; this IXL with the pouch is a classic, looking very cool with your Hartshead!

Toting these two Case jacks to start the week.

Thank you kindly good sir, you're showing two Bobby Dazzlers there! I keep looking from that great jigging to the saw-cut bone, and back again, and it's hard to say which I admire the most

Pairing my Hartshead Barlow with Charlie's Diamond Jack today
