Your newest addition:traditionals of course!

Christmas sales sucked me in again
New Lionsteel Bestman with ebony handles and a drop point. As is the case with all my Lionsteels, F&F is excellent.

I just learned about this and I had to have it. Single blade Rough Ryder Barlow in imitation tortoise shell. The fit and finish on this one are terrific, and if it's going to have a shield at least it's a cool one.

Picked up the Schrade Rancher from the Post Office yesterday. Wouldn’t mind completing the collection, but not at the going rate

I think this counts as a traditional under the rules. Tops friction folder. Barber blade? Not to sure. Really a neat knife that comes with a nice leather belt sheath.

Well it just came today, so I’m going to post it here to.

Dan, that's a stunner. I like the blade combo. The covers, well, beautiful.

I guess you would call this the Deux Chevaux of knives...

I've had only a passing curiosity about Opinel knives, but I recently watched an episode of Time Team in which they were constructing a replica Saxon flute from (if I recall correctly) an elderberry branch. Dr. Phil Harding reached into that mysterious leather box he wears on his belt and pulled out an Opinel (maybe a No. 8 or No. 9?) and proceeded to do a bit of whittling. A colleague remarked that it was a really sharp knife and Phil responded that, well, a dull knife wasn't much good! Then and there I decided that I needed to try one for myself.
This one (a No. 6 Carbone) arrived yesterday. It wasn't all that sharp, but a couple of minutes on a 1200 grit diamond plate and it was wicked sharp. Looking forward to having a bit of fun with it!

Two are recent trades (Both 92's,.The smooth Ivory bone and Natural Stag with shield) from a porch member, thanks Justin! and the craggy stag minus shield was a purchase.
Stag is very subjective, I enjoy both examples I posted. The craggy stag is probably the most extreme I have in Stag and I love it, as I do the smoother version posted also. Also rec'd a nice deep red Sheepfoot 49 and will post pictures later, thought I'd keep the Eureka's all together.

Three beauties, to be sure!

Received a pair of knives from David Mary Knives this weekend. A 4" Kagitsume with green Suretouch grips, and a 3.5" Wharntastic with blue micarta grips, both in CPM Magnacut steel. The other little DM knife is my Speedy Weasel v0.9 in LC200N steel and Suretouch grips, which I got several weeks ago.

Wharntastic - estimated approx 7" long overall.






Kagitsume - estimated 8" long overall. The Kagitsume was designed as a self defense wharncliffe by David's Martial Blade Concepts instructor Andy Keyworth. Outside of Andy and his crew, I might be the only other person with one so far, if I recall correctly.

View attachment 2017158Is the shield pinned or glued on? Either way, it looks really great!

Real Beauty, you must've had to trade the world for those

These qualify for The Pantheon of the Knife Gods and you've officially overhauled my modest trio of lower Eureka: Ivory Bone MIT, Greenbone Tidioute user and MIT TSA sfo with end cap.

You must be ecstatic, I would be and an upvote for the year's end .

Many thanks, Will

Great Trio Paul , especially that middle one with the Outstanding Stag . I would even trade you an old Colonial Barlow that has the name of our bank that we used in 1961 on it even up . LOL
That is some very deep Stag my friend .

Found a good store today that still has older stock available at good prices and made a few purchases.
