Those are excellent! I really appreciate Willem O'Kelly's work. I haven't tried the Stone though. I'd be interested to know more details about it once you've had a chance to evaluate it.

First impression, F&F is excellent flush in 3 positions, no nail nick which is nice twist but pinched nicely although the pull is a bit firm 6+. the spine is a tad thicker than other custom I have , flat grind. It went through thick cardboard like butter. It came in wooden box with pocket slip and leather key holder. Overall impressed and satisfied.

61OT arrived today. I knew it was going to be a user because someone had taken something to the blades. But it has good solid springs with plenty of snap.

 

[JTB_5]

Before and after pictures. Lots of scratches on the blade. The bolsters has scuffs. The handle was dingy. I did some sandpapering of the bolsters and handle. I used a belt sander on the blade and then water stones. I like the “Damascus-like” look the water stones give to the blade.

Gec 62 stag easy pocket

 

[BIGDORK]

I went a little overboard this week...
Grabbed the 47 and 93 @ GEC last week, the 2 forums knives i received from a forum user, and the others arrived in todays mail call.
Tennessee coming through on the 62's!
Only planning on one 23 so i have time to recoup, lol.
Sorry for the crummy picture, at work

Schrade Walden arrived today...

[hornetguy]

A couple of mine showed up yesterday... Schrade 8OT with carbon steel blades, and a newer Case half whittler in black synthetic. The Schrade feels just wonderful in hand. While it's what I would classify as a "larger" knife, it doesn't feel bulky in my pocket at all. The blades show no wear at all, just some patina spots...
The little Case is just barely larger than a peanut.. nice watch pocket option, which is where it has been for two days...

My Gunstock Jack's Bloodwood #86* is arriving today, along with one of the Pocket Carvers in White Bone.

Criminy, speaking of white bone, if I could find one of the white bone #86 Jacks in it, I'd be absolutely over the moon.

I'll post a picture up once mail has arrived later!



* Many, many thanks to Forum member @SteveC, super smooth transaction.

I picked up this Cargill Knife World Cripple Creek off the exchange. The action is phenomenal!

 

[K33ncutter]
