Favorite, eh? That would be a tough call, but this congress deserves an honorable mention. I used to wonder why anyone would want a congress until I got this one, now I find that I enjoy using it. I don't know why, really. I just do.
Favorite is tough. It's so hard to start thinking about it and then want to include too many. I reckon the Copperhead and Barlow are neck and neck for tops for me at the moment. The Sway Back is right up there as well, but I really want to try the two bladed version, as the "gents" that I have seem as if they could benefit from the added thickness. One pattern that I don't see mentioned often is the Teardrop. I was surprised at just how much I enjoyed this one once I got it in hand. It's a perfect size, and it might just be my favorite for tumbling around in my hand like a worry coin while I'm relaxing on the back porch (an important aspect of traditionals for me ).
