[Ricardo Carrion]

Yikes! Monday again!
Have a good one!
If I was a true knife nut I might carry all of these for Micarta/Mammoth Monday.
I think I'll carry the two in the middle...or maybe the top and bottom.....or...
Good thing I'm in no hurry to go anywhere today.

I’ve been after a AG peanut for what seems like forever!! Great knafs.

Micarta Monday!! Hope everyone has a great week!!

 

[RDaneel]

Got home from running errands and I just threw that same knife in my pocket.

Great minds.

Thanks! The Pinched Peanut is a great little knife! You won't be disappointed. Good luck finding one.

Had these two with me today.

Nice! Otters are just solid good looking knives.

I didn't think I would grow to like Texas Toothpicks, but the more I looked at 'em the more I liked 'em. After a few weeks of thinking about it, I finally sprung for one (back when you could take your time when buying a GEC). I bought it mainly for the looks, both the color and the shape. What I didn't foresee was how good it would feel in my hand and that I would carry it quite often.

Nice! Otters are just solid good looking knives.

Thanks! They certainly are. I have been carrying the 3 rivet knife daily since I got it a year ago. It's just the right size for me.

Beautiful stag on that Whittler.

That's some really nice stag. Don't think I've ever seen that Series with that shield. Do you know what year they made that one?

Thanks guys. I believe they were made in 2005.

 

[OldHercDude]

A new arrival ALOX Farmer X today.

Shiny!

TGIF Porch Friends.
My son comes home this weekend for Spring Break... I'm so excited!

Happy Saturday Everybody... Hope it's a good weekend for all.

Couple of fine pairs of knives, John; that Böker Barlow is a handsome devil!
Enjoy your son's time at home; sounds like he has some good goals (and impressive language skills )!

My “ultra carry” thus far, wish I had two

That knife is a knockout, Gus; love the jigging, the equal end frame with round bolsters! What's the second blade?

...
Thanks for the compliment on my photos as well. A big part of the reason that I joined here was to force myself to take photos of subjects that I don't usually photograph (my knives) and with limited gear (my phone). I'm hoping that it will give a little boost to my creativity.

How does your wife feel about your photo creativity and your son's birth? Are you allowed in the room if you have a camera??

Magnificent choice for the week, Gary.

Thanks for your good words, José.

The Mrs. and I are off to get our second dose of the Pfizer vaccine today... knife and book for the trip and wait.

I hope the 2nd dose went well with minimal side effects; sweet trapper to help you pass the time! Reading a book in Greek is impressive to me, who doesn't even know the entire Greek alphabet!

Happy Friday! With 2 new Farmer X models inbound, I thought I’d carry my favorite orange Farmer for a bit while waiting for the new arrivals.

Awesome orange, Tom, and congrats on the TWO incoming Farmer Xs!

Cool photo of a couple of classy knives! Cadet on the bottom?

I'm following @Jack Black's lead and toting a couple of black jacks today, a Remington and a Syracuse Knife Co. (Camillus).

Dynamite dark duo, JJ!

Grand group, Gary. I especially admire your '86 Vic Soldier.

Thanks, Dean.
I like the looks of your Congress! (I've been surprised that using a congress knife doesn't really thrill me much, even though in theory I like features of the pattern.)

Gracias John
You da man mi amigo !!!
Love it

...

Congrats, Dan, on the pretty and practical slip!
Plaudits to John for his thoughtful generosity!

I have had this 301 for almost 47 years so I guess it is my old friend for today.

Nice to meet your old friend, Les!

You have some very cool and unique RRs Gary, this one’s another winner!

Thanks for the encouragement, Todd.

...
A bit of a seasonal mashup there Gary. I dig the old Imperial with the freshly fallen black walnut!

Thanks, Jeff. The photos I post are almost never "contemporary" in the sense of being taken on the day they're posted. I usually get a few pics of a knife soon after I acquire it, and I'll use those for months/years until something gets me to take a new set (to use for another long period).

That's a beautiful Gunboat, GT.
I like the shield, a Double Tulip perhaps?

Thanks, John. I'm not an expert on conventional names for knife shields, so double tulip sounds good to me!

@Markesharp , thanks. The steel is etched A2. Tony loved using it, and yes, it cuts!

Thanks Peregrin , @JohnDF , and @mcc850 .

YWZA! What a superb knife, LT!!

Winning pair, José!

A quality quartet, Gary. I especially like the old USA Imperial stockman.
...
I heard that in my head when I read it.

Thanks, Dean; I think I like old USA Imperials at least as much as any other knives I have.

I am carrying the 2018 Bladeforums Buck 301 elk double ended jack today.

That elk is enchanting, Dean!

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like the legendary rosemary bush or the wild sago palm are going to recover from last month's big freeze. I can't be too sad, since the plumbing survived!

I hope your plants can still bounce back, Rachel.

...
Hope everyone is having a fine weekend.

Your stag sowbelly is an absolute stunner, Tom!!
