Brilliant Alox pairing and cogent rationale!

Thanks! That’s the first time anyone accused me of cogency.

These two black utilitarians today...
The Case jack is always handy....and then the electrician TL29 is one of two pocketknives issued to me while in the USMC, the other being the camp utility style which many refer to as the Demo knife....really, interesting note, this TL-29 is the Demo issued to combat engineers and e.o.d. guys and I have heard them both be referred to as Demo...for me, they were both part of the E2900 small arms' repairman tool kit and being a tool room nco for awhile, I ordered a box of 12 and gave one (camp knife/utility) to each armorer in the infantry weapons repair shop where I was station at Camp Pendleton....later, they issued us Gerber and Leatherman multi tools with sheaths to keep, I still have all 4 variants...cheers for another warm and sunny Thursday gang!

Dug this Remington R1173 Baby Bullet from 1983 out of deep storage a couple of days ago and I'm going to give it some air today. It's the Brass Rail for Ravioli and then to the Holiday Market and then home. My swallow is still off a bit so I may only be able to manage the Ravioli sauce.

Day 3. The 72 is almost the perfect knife. I don’t find them to big for the pocket either.

A couple of Case XX today, Jack and a Stockman

Those two are so nice. Especially the top one.

5K Qs - welcome back GT, looking forward to your weekly rotations.

These two on a miserably hot day.

I can't let this one stay in the safe, I ordered a second one to put up for posterity and will carry this one.

I believe that was a wise decision Scott... I did the same! My first one was a bit lighter then yours, I hope the second is much darker when it arrives.

Such pretty bone on that GEC. It reminds me of my favorite 1950’s schrade.

Always admire that Camelbone makes for a very fine carry, but does it make it a wander, a nomad like the Bedouin ?

Thanks, Will
