Thanks for the fun and generous GAW, Paul! :thumbsup::cool::cool::thumbsup: Best wishes to all the participants!

I'd like to enter for Lance The Fort The Fort for Prize A.
A few years ago, Lance sold me a super-fine Black Box Sowbelly Stockman just like the one up for grabs in this GAW, so the least I can do is support him if he'd like to give the pattern another chance, or has seller's regret, or whatever! 🤓

Having participated in the "If you could only keep ONE knife" threads that appear here periodically, I've already wrestled with the question of a "forever keeper". Despite my strong affinity for both canoe and sowbelly stockman patterns, I decided that my main loyalty lies with the first knife I ever owned, a Colonial Forest-Master scout pattern I got about 1960 and used almost daily until September 1969 on the dairy farm where I grew up. I've used that knife more than any of the knives I've acquired since 2014 when I started obsessing about traditional pocketknives.

Thanks so much Gary! That is definitely one of my previous favorites. I do sometimes regret selling certain knives. My only consolation is that it now resides with one of the finest members on “The Porch”. I appreciate you thinking of me. Lance
 
Man, what a generous giveaway!

Please enter me for both, I can’t decide. I don’t have a sow belly or a Case stockman.

As for my forever knives, I have quite a few, some not pictured. For the picture below the top one is a knife my Grandpa made out of some part of a tractor, can’t remember which part. The middle one is a knife my late father made me out of a saw blade and white tail antler. The last one was my dad Buck 110 (112?) that he carried in the Navy and got engraved in Cochin India when they made a port of call there. Since I I have my father’s and grandfather’s handmade knives, I plan on passing down one of my semi handmade ones like the giraffe antler one pictured below to one of my kids along with the other ones, sort of a family tradition now I guess.

Very generous of you again. :cool:


A and B for me please

One of those oil the joints hats would come in useful as like Herman Munster I have a bolt through my neck (not really but I do have a fully metal knee that hasnt been oiled in 10 plus years,its a sealed joint). 🤣


I have a lot of forever knifes,like my First Barlow which was also my first forum knife and posted to me by Charlie.

So thats a triple whammy of greatness.

Also my first HJ and all the knifes gifted me are also special.:cool:

One of my forever knives is this scout knife that my father carried when he was leading us as cub/boy scouts. My brother and I each had one just like it but they disappeared through the years. My dad obviously took much better care of his.

Wow, Thank you!! Beautiful knives, and slips! I'm in for A please. My top two forever knives are my absolute favorite GECs, they are both 79s. One in Jobillo and Kingwood. They are going to each of my children. They will have a record of me using them everyday.
