I got this Ulster a couple years ago, but it just came back to me compliments on @glennbad

Looks awesome Jim!


I got the douk douk in today. This thing is really cool, and solid as a rock but with a fairly lean grind. It reminds me of the old solid bolster USA imperials; a little rough around the edges but very sturdy, useful and well built. I like that a lot. I should have got one ages ago. I will probably buy a couple more, seeing as there’s a couple variations and sizes. :confused:

I like the opinel and have no issue with them at all, but I think this is a much more interesting knife. However, one can have both!

Also got the old hickory hunter. I like it too. Very traditional and nice old timey looking (other than the gaudy handle imprint) with a lean cutting blade. The sheath is ok. I did not expect an amazing sheath anyways and the total package of this is a great buy so the sheath is fine and serviceable. I really like the blade shape and feel of the knife.

My replacement Anker Messer arrived, the first one developed a bit of up and down play in the open position despite not having had much use, I think there may have been some hard polishing compound in the joint hiding the play from new as it appeared after I'd washed the knife out and re-oiled it one day after it got dirty. Whatever, this one is ok.

That's a cool Old Hickory; I may have to look for one of those. Full tang, I presume? Is the blade thicker than on their regular kitchen knife line?

Same blade thickness as the 7" butcher that I also have, better finish on the edge and scales though.
