What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Jack Black]

This bandit last summer was a bit mischievous , tore a small hole on the side of the small tent we use for food.
However he redeemed himself nicely by posing for a couple pics with my African Rosewood lamb

So to honor the memory I'll carry my rosewood lamb today

Love those pics Dan

Love the color on the bone, hope it brightens your day.

...

Opening Day...
Reminds me of Vince @Prester John. Hope he comes back some day.

Thanks buddy, I understand Vince will be back soon

Giving the Barlow the day off today...

Another great pairing

Thank you very much, Jack!!! I recall a piece on that wood burning, but never knew how dangerous it could be!

Yeah, apparently!

Your camel bone recover just keeps looking better and better; I'm a huge fan of the 44 gunstock, as well!

Going thrifty today with these two Imperial/Hammer Brands from the thirties.

Thanks JJ, those two are prefect Thrifty Thursday carries

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

It's a Boker Plus Atlas Gary I picked it up just recently while looking for another copper-handled knife, which was out of stock. I've had other knives from the same series, and like the Drop-point blade. It was very inexpensive, and I'm really pleased with it. I hope it's available there soon

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!

Thank you my friend, maybe I should have waved the cleaver around more!

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.

WOW!!

Good Friday is a holiday here, but with the country still in a form of 'lockdown', travel restricted, and the pubs closed, it's not much of a holiday Still, I dare say, I can find a pal or two to drink some beer with me in my garden, weather permitting Carrying my Hartshead Barlow, and an Old Friend Have a Good Friday folks

Although Tuesday’s a mere memory, why not some triple-trapper
A great day to all!

Thanks for the Camillus comment, Gus.
Wow, when you carry that trapper, you've got a pocketful of pit bulls!

Winning pair with mucho flair, John!

...
Gary, I could toss out everything else but a good TL-29, and get along just fine.

...
Good group, Gary. You got that Camillus electrician at your first gun & knife show; that was good luck and a good knife!

Thanks, Jeff & Dean, I can agree with you. I'm a spearpoint fan at heart, I like having an extra tool like a screwdriver, I like the bail so I can hang the knife with my keys, and I think the black/silver Camillus looks really good while working hard (kind of like being able to pull off cleaning out the calf pens while wearing a tuxedo ).

I'm carrying my Case Mini Copperlock in Curly Maple wood today.

Splendid knife and sensational photo, Dean!

One of my favourite SAKs

Thanks, Jack. I think you have good taste!

Toting these two wood covered clip jacks today.

Your "struck by lightning" knife reminds me of the movie The Natural and the "magical" baseball bat carved from a lightning-split tree!

I’m not a huge case guy, but when I do it has to be CV in jigged chestnut.Happy Wharncliffe Wednesday Y’all

Outstanding chestnut jigged bone trio!

Handsome sleeveboard! (Cool popsicle-stick box, too; gift from a kid? I made a "jewelry box" like that one for my mom over 60 years ago. )

Superb stag lockback, José!

Thank you very much, Gary.

 

[Jack Black]

Thanks, Jack. I think you have good taste!

Thanks a lot Gary

 

[Pt-Luso]

Admirable and artistic, José!

Once again thank you very much for your appreciation, Gary.

 

[Pt-Luso]

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:

What a marvel of knives, especially canoes, Gary.

 

[Pt-Luso]

Once again I carry this unbranded knife (I think it is from Sheffield), in stag.

Beautiful bone on your pair of Cases, Steve!

A Double Black Friday

A great one to all.

Installed a new dishwasher earlier this week, 1” deeper than the old one - now I have a cabinet door to modify - some jobs are gifts that keep on giving! Got my most favorite working pocketknife in my pocket for today. Case 3318 HE. OH

Not sure what the little one is, but you can tell it was made with great attention to detail and very high quality standards. A real classic, for sure. OH

Yes indeed, good eye as usual!
Both blades stamped Frankfurth HDW Co. Milwaukee, and neet engraving

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

Thanks Gary! I thought a bit about what knives would go to my kids when they're old enough (and show an interest). Most likely they'd get a SAK of some sort or one that they remember seeing me carry. As it is now, my daughter loves anything red, so a SAK works out. Of course it would be more fun to find something new and carry it for them in the meantime. Lately I've been interested in swaybacks/lambsfoot, or dogleg jacks, or gunstocks, or barlows, or.......

classic Case amber bone canoe:

Doesn't get much more "classic" than that.

That's an absolute beauty, GT.

Another great pairing

Thank you, Jack.

Hope your pubs open soon, Jack.
In the mean time, it's nice to have friends to hang out with, in your garden and on our Porch.

Winning pair with mucho flair,

Thank you, GT.

A solid looking Lamb, Jeff.
