Your newest addition:traditionals of course!

Nice Canoe Gary! That one covers all the bases! -Lance
Love the shield on that one!!!
That is some great jigging and the shield is fantastic!
Thanks, guys. :) The shield is definitely outstanding. :cool::cool::thumbsup:

Here are a couple of more knives I picked up from the Exchange, back around Christmas (thanks, Lance). Both are Case products, one canoe and one stockman, and both are IMHO excellent!

Red bone 1975 Case canoe:

I liked it very much Harry and plan to go again. I had a good talk with Mr. Nowland. He didn't have much left by Saturday afternoon but we spent time looking at his gallery of knives. I think I will be buying something from him. (Heard you have something on order too :thumbsup:)

I think that would be a great move on your part !!!! I did get to talk with Rick Nowland early on Friday when he had a number of knives on hand . Every one was a Jewel too . My problem with most of his and others is that they are Too Short . I prefer something 3 & 5/8 to 4 & 1/4 . I believe that Rick Nowland , Ken Coates , & Mike Zcherney all could make me a very fine knife at a reasonable price . I showed each of them one of my knives that I would like to be Almost Copied . That is something that has been banging around more in my mind .

In the dictionary there is a definition for the word 'funky'. I think this says it better. I know there were several size/variations of the Schrade wire Jack. This one is 3 3/16" closed. I couldn't resist it. I cleaned it, put an edge on it and oiled it.
Now, does anyone know how to date this one? All help and comments appreciated.

I got the idea that Rick is willing to work with the customer. Have you asked him about a knife in that size range?
 
These two fantastic A.G. Russell knives arrived today. Fit & finish and overall quality are top notch. Very impressed as I've always been with Mr. Russell's knives. The pictures don't do them much justice. They just scream quality when I hold them in my hand.

They both totally rock but the 3 5/8" Gunstock is my favorite.

I also received this Bark River t-shirt that was a gift from a friend. Pretty awesome too. Especially considering that I didn't know what was inside the box until I opened it.
