What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Jack Black]

Thanks Jack. It's a beauty.. what do you think of the potential 2021 BladeForums knife that Charlie has posted?

I think it looks very impressive Alan Maybe it'd look even better with a nice swedged traditional Spearpoint, perhaps a match-strike pull, but @Pàdruig was saying GEC already made a Northwoods version with a Spearpoint, and it looks pretty good with that big Clip anyway Kudos to Charlie, and to @gunstockjack

I've got these two Barlows with me today.

And two fabulous Barlows they are JJ!

Exactly! I think you'd like it, Jack. The author writes well--he's a gifted storyteller, so it's a joy to read. There is so much going on in the book beyond (but related to) the Carson biographic details.

I'll have to pick up a copy my friend, and add it to the pile of books, towering above my bed, waiting to be read! They include half a dozen books on Western history, the most recent of which is this one

That looks really nice! Did you dye one of the recent sepia bone?

After carrying my new copperhead for several days, I’m going with another Case.

Thank you! Yes it’s a recent Sepia, dyed with Fiebings leather dye. My first attempt at a dye job, I’m pretty happy with it.

My vintage Sheffield made Rowbothan twin blade one of the best built knifes I have found from that era.
The Paramo vice links back to WW2 when we where being bombed in England,they set up another works for vices etc besides the better known Record works in case one was taken out.
I use my stuff so like used knifes mostly,I was building a bench and vice for my shed.
The pencil was from my days in the army,they even stamped every sheet of the loo roll government property as if anyone would nick it it was like grease proof paper sharp and wrinkly.

No sightings of Hummingbirds in the Dakotas yet but at least I have some Hummingbird acrylic it's an overcast day here but in the sun she really pops

That is one of those knives for good looks my friend .
Do you get Hummingbirds up there ??? We think they are God's greatest little inventions .

Got the same thing in my pocket here tonight! As you say, great when you need more (handle mostly) than a peanut, but not a sword.

Gotta thank @Gary W. Graley again, I got mine in a giveaway he did here a few years ago.

220 Jack is my daily companion,next up is 6318 pw with clip blade

Thanks most kindly, Jack!!!

That's a timeless beauty of a stag covered Lamb!!! Have fun with those Old West books; my second undergrad major advisor was the king of the Old West, quite an awesome series of classes!

Great knife. Looks like perfection.

My son and I made his Case wooden knife kit he got in his Easter basket. We just finished it and he has “worked on” or cut everything in sight.

I need to put my own edge on this Navy knife and make it's new home at the end of key chain. Took me forever to realize I needed one of these knives

Nothing like that old Colt’s Patent Fire Arms Royal Blue!

Nice little bit of history, and I totally relate to using knives and leaning toward older ones.
