What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[Old Hunter]

You're like Henry Clay, the Great Compromiser!

Ha! Yeah, I stay pretty busy when I'm relaxing, but compromise is the key for a long marriage. Fishing and Hunting are my two alone things - and I always look forward to those days.

Superb 897UH, Bruce; that model probably gets my vote for ideal medium stockman!

It is a nice knife, pretty much intact, and an earlier UH with the first style stag mold handle and black handle dye. However, I hadn't used it for awhile and nearly cut myself - forgot it has very soft closing snap on that main blade and it folded on my finger when I was "drilling" a hole in a Fishbite bait. Came close to a bad cut - it will go back in my cigar box and another with stiffer locking spring will go into the tacklebox - probably a good candidate for a stainless camper knife with punch blade. OH

Today's carry, a Case 6308 Whittler.

Mini trapper and a SAK Cadet for me today.

 

[Jack Black]

A couple of knives exuding style and substance, Jack!




Impressive double stag carry, Jack! (You could go totally over the top with triple stag by adding the Abbeydale Jack! )

- GT

Thank you for the kind words Gary, I'm going to have to do that with the Abbeydale Jack!

Phenomenal pair of Barlows, Jack! IMHO, that Case you have is the best of the Barlows Case released a couple of years ago.

Thanks pal, I'm really pleased with it

Remember that old TV game show "Bökers Wild"? I don't know if I ever watched it myself, but I remember hearing it on the TV in another room with the host shouting "Böker ... Böker ... Böker!!!"

LOL! There was an English version too

Thanks, Jack; I kind of like the resin handles, but I'm attracted to knives at the lower end of the price range.
My standards are probably not very high, but I'm very pleased with the Böker Magnum scout!

I definitely have a liking for Peasant Knives my friend, and I have a couple of Pallares knives. I like the steel, but have never warmed to the handles I'm afraid. That's good to hear about the Scout, it certainly looks very nice Gary

Could be. My last one is this Friday.
No hospital today!

Good luck Jer

Haha!

LOL! Great pic Rachel!

Don't let your Hartshead fall asleep... or that pod will clone it.

Notable pair, John; your stockman has glorious bone!

Thank you very much, GT.

Awesome!

Beautiful Red Mini Trapper... the patina really adds to the look.

[Modoc ED]

Headed to the furniture store this morning to pick out two chairs for our TV room. Of course a stop at the Wagon Wheel Cafe for fortification is first on the list. I'm sticking with this Remington again today.

Beautiful Red Mini Trapper... the patina really adds to the look.

Thanks John, in my opinion, red and patina just go together.

Great combo John, and that photo looks like it should be in a catalog.

It's been too long since I've carried this excellent Case Texas Jack...

That one’s a beaut, John.

Just received my custom slip made from an Ozzie Smith glove. I love it.

I’m not really a pocket slip guy, but that is hands down the best pocket slip EVER!!!

Looks like that MAM had seen some good use, José.

Was carrying this one again today while I photograph some more pieces to put into the Database .



This is about half of what is left to do then the Tedious Part starts with inputing the data .

Harry

Great photos, Harry! Thanks for reminding me that I’m also way behind on inputting knives into my spreadsheet.

Excellent pair, Taylor!

Nice picture, it showcases the bone very well. Almost makes me want to get one!

My carry for Micarta Monday:

Interesting texture on that Micarta.

That photo is HOT!!!

I’m carrying Eleanor’s Nifebrite #71 today. I dropped her off for her first day of kindergarten this morning.

 

[Pt-Luso]

Rare pair, José; not many people have knives like those two!

Thank you very much for your words of encouragement, Gary.

 

[Pt-Luso]

Memorable knife, José!

Thank you one more time, Gary.

 

[Pt-Luso]

Looks like that MAM had seen some good use, José.

Yes it worked a lot thank you, Barrett.
