Queen Small Trapper with Rosewood covers

The best thing about posting that knife is you know you probably have the only one here

This little guy just came in yesterday.

Edit: Forgot to add that this is Amboina wood.

And I've been toying with my first attempt at a forced patina. Looks like I still have a way to go.

This little guy just came in yesterday.

Cool little fixed blade and an even cooler case.
I went looking for one, saw the price, and changed my mind. Lol

Only one? Do you have handle material factored into your rotation? You wouldn't want to have a woodless week.

Happy Wooden Wednesday; I've got some new bocote on my old knife:

That bocote rehaft looks great, r8shell!

I don't (so far ) take handle material into account in my carry rotation schedule except for having categories for Alox Knife of the Week and Stag/Horn Knife of the Week. I don't have explicit categories for wood, synthetic, bone, metal handles. I don't recall if a totally woodless week has come up, but I can always fall back on the fact that I always have an Opinel #7 and my rosewood lambsfoot (when it's not in my pocket) among my kitchen counter knives.

Thank you sir. No doubt, the price freaked me out too. But will say that the fit/finish in hand is pretty sweet.

A few years ago I picked up the Boker Plus Bob and Bobbi. I really liked the Bobbi, but found the blade shape not my favorite for regular EDC. Really wanted something between the two but with a more usable blade shape.

Then I spotted the Pry and wanted one ever since. But the price of the German made cousins were crazy. Finally found one I could afford, and stumbled on this Pry Mini. Bam!, no longer affordable. Because I couldn't decide which one, bought both. Seems to be a general theme around here....can't decide, so buy 'em all.

To apologize for my long-windedness, here's one more pic with another cousin, little Gnome. Olive Wood I believe.

I really like those. What are those. Especially the Montana one with the tool and the sweet bail.

Hey Dwight...

It's a slice,snappy well made knife I scored for 50buxaud at the hock shop in Wollongong...I'll let the pics tell the rest.
Not sure of the wood scales.It resides in my mini first aid kit .
Cheers.

The Barlow is Bexfield Sheffield 2 blade.
The name is somewhat tenuously associated with Trevor Ablett.
The other knife is Japanese with only a number..I got that one for nothing from a mate in the Brigade..

Thanks Jon. Very interesting and nice to see some knives from off the beaten path. Really cool stuff.

That looks a lot like the Puma Gelder pattern that I was sorely tempted to buy back in the 80s, but didn't because of fund shortages. I like it!
