Nice photo, Jeff! I like some of the imitation stag, like on your Craftsman whittler, just as much as real stag, for some reason. :cool::thumbsup::cool:

Outstanding, Dean. I hope you carry it often so we can see more of it!:thumbsup:
 
The tortoise on the #86 goes pretty well with some lava, ehh?

This is the second eruption I've witnessed, a truly amazing experience.
Sorry for the bonus pic, gents.

Thanks for the extra info, Gus! :):thumbsup:


Thanks for the photo of an original version. :) I prefer the red/black version visually, but I'll bet they both feel great! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:


Is that a Passover tradition?? o_O:rolleyes:


I'm in your situation. I haven't smoked since Christmas Eve 2014, but I don't think I could enjoy an occasional cigar without soon getting hooked again. :(


I don't remember seeing that copper Böker Plus before, Jack; that's a very appealing knife! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup: I did some superficial searching and it looks like it may not be available at US dealers.


Good-looking and hard-working knife, Jim! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:


Bewitching Böker bonanza, Todd! :cool::cool::thumbsup:


Your TC Barlow is otherworldly, John! ;):cool::cool:


I know what you mean about using up knives, Dean. I occasionally wonder what (and when) I should do with my knives before I leave this mortal coil and my survivors get stuck with them. :rolleyes:


Nice shot of that Gum Fuddy SBJr, Dean! :cool::thumbsup::cool:


Belated congrats to you and yours on the arrival of a new boy! :thumbsup::):cool::thumbsup: Have you picked out a knife to give him in a few years?


I hope you had Happy Hiking, Jack! I'll bet none of the fellow travelers you met had a pair of knives that could hold a candle to yours! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:


Colorful pair, Paul! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:


Superb stag lockback, José! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:


Stunning stag pair, Joshua! :cool::cool::thumbsup:


Cool and unusual, Gus! :thumbsup::cool::cool:

Pair of pocket knife phenoms, John! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:


Wonderful knife, outstanding slip, Dean! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:


Great photo, Dan! :thumbsup::):thumbsup:



I hope you guys heal up soon! :eek::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Yep, it’s bone - a pattern they called Chexx (play on CaseXX). The squares were originally red and black (see photo below borrowed from internet), but I inherited the knife as it is now and have no idea what happened to the black. Personally, I like it much better all red.

Aha!
I'd remembered seeing those when they came out and not liking it much, but I'd really liked your when you post it. Couldn't put my finger on the difference... interesting!

Ok, I think you won coolest backdrop ever! or maybe hottest... :)
 
These two for the 1st.

They were my Dads. The peanut I got him for Christmas around 2007. He never carried it, too afraid to lose it, I'm sure.

The Sabre Jack I'm told I also bought him some 30 to 32 years ago... I don't remember. He loved it, as long as I can remember it was on the kitchen table, pen blade open, used for anything.

His birthday was April 1st. Would have been 91 this year. Hes been gone 10 years this December. Doesn't seem that long, yet a lot longer too. I miss him.

Carried the peanut around the house today, and for the first time in years the Jack left the house, carried it for chores on the property. Normally I keep it as he did, pen blade open on the kitchen table.

Fantastic story and knives. Great remembrance of your dad, Ice Tigre. My dad would have been 91 this year too ... April 6th. Gone but not forgotten.

FRIDAY WOooHOoo !!! ... and still got a Buck in my pocket ... 501 Squire S35VN

As usual, I've been carrying a couple of canoes and a couple of stockman patterns since the weekly "change of carries" on Monday.
I think this inexpensive burl wood Remington canoe looks really good:

Also enjoying this classic Case amber bone canoe:

The stockman knives are also both Case models this week, a sowbelly and a 6347:
