Your newest addition:traditionals of course!

My first 36.

This 6.5 Bonestag Sowbelly came in yesterday afternoon's mail. I know I tout Case knives but this particular knife is absolutely flawless. There are no gaps, chips, or dings. The blades are perfectly placed with no blade rub what-so-ever and is flush in open and closed positions. Of course that means there is no under or over blading. Case seems to go overboard when fitting, assembling, and polishing the Sowbelly pattern knives. I believe Dylan Pàdruig Pàdruig has found this to be the case with one or two of his Sowbellys. Anyway, I'm really pleased with this knife. I took this picture of the knife right out of the wrapper - didn't even bother to polish it up for the picture - thought it looked great without polishing. The burnt amber coloring is just right.

I hope this knife fits on The Porch. The Sunfish pattern is traditional and so are lock backs so I'm going to assume that it's acceptable.

A.G. Russell 4" Sunfish Lock Back. This purchase was inspired by the recent release of the GEC #36 Toenail Clipper. That release made me want a big, heavy knife but I like lock backs and stainless steel so this one fits the bill pretty good.

This is a new arrival -- one from Chris Sharp. For starters, I'm really drawn to the amber jigged bone on this one. The really interesting component, though, is the integral liner/bolster/shield, which provides for quite a unique 3-D look...

Here's a comparison with a 29 Stockyard Whittler...

Walk 'n Talk on this one is tremendous, and it is a really nice size for the pocket. :)

I've always loved the look of that AGR Sunfish. I've just never pulled the trigger. Looks like a nice one.

I've come back and looked at this at least three times now. I can see why you like the bone. Beautiful knife. :cool:

New to me 62, and bigfish64 bigfish64 sent me a copy of the paper where I made it into the front page that came in today. Thanks Todd!
Very nice 62 Jon. Glad the paper got there in good shape, can’t wait to see the framing. 😎👍

Jim that knife is fantastic, the whole package right there. 😎👍
 
Just received this LionSteel Bestman 2 blade. As with all the Lionsteel knives I own, fit and finish is impeccable. Its a good sized knife. I'm not sure how much pocket time it will get. Its minimally bigger than a Vic Spartan. Little heavier, but not that much bigger and I've carried a Spartan, so I don't know. It might get carried more than I think. Good stainless steel blades. Carbon fiber and titantium. What's not to love? 🥰

I've looked pretty hard at those. Very cool looking knife. And with a clip and a wharnie - perfect two-blade combo, imo.
