What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

I am like fish out of water with my crude working class manerisms and old motorbike
I R Not attempting to be a "smart" ... (or "dum")... a§. 😇

S'long as your "old" motorbike reliably (and presumably "comfortably" and economically, else you would have gotten a different now "old" motorbike years ago.) gets you from "point A" to "Point B" and back ...
WHY on any planet you care to mention in ALL of the multi-verses, would you want to trade it in on a new motorbike that may not reliably, comfortably, and economically get you from point A to B and back again?!? 🤯😳😁

B Sides ... ain't the taxation on a new one higher, and the new ones don't go as far on a liter of gasoline?🤔🤨

Heading up to Klamath Falls, Oregon in a short while for paint at the Home Depot and lunch at the el Aguave Mexican Restaurant. No doctors appointments there today so it'll be a good day for Cindy to catch up on her shopping. This 501 Squire will be just right for today's travels.

The new one. Tried to capture the pearlescent fleck. #48 Tomato
 
Getting some work done on the truck before I go into actual work this afternoon. Just putting in a new battery & saw it could use a new terminal bolt, so the Imperial Kamp-King is helping out with that.
Speaking of which I put a new bail on the Imperial when I got off of work. A quick shout out to knifeswapper knifeswapper at CK for the bails. I've made them for knives in the past but these are so much easier. Not to mention better quality. I went ahead & bought a few & a couple of slips from his business 😉

Anyway I hope y'all are having a great week so far!

The large & small bail comparison. I put the small on the Kamp-King since the holes didn't go all the way through the handle 👍

Speechless🫢!!!

Thank you Mr. R. 😊 :thumbsup:
I had some of them off my magnet display board for a rub down with a microfiber cloth and thought they might look handsome in a picture, as a group.

Had Little Valley on my mind this morning as well Primble Primble

Not surprised to see the "Whittler Guru" come up with a Carpenters Whittler. One of my very favorite knives, that model. :thumbsup:🦖
Whittlers are where it’s at ! ............ I heard somebody say that. ;)🤣
Love the pair ! :thumbsup:😍😍

Busy week, finally reporting for duty here. Probably not going to catch up this point, but always fun to participate in this juggernaut of a thread.

Yesterday's WW carry. Funny thing is, yesterday when I put these in in my pocket I thought, it was Tuesday, and could find no alliterative or inernet knife-carry rotation justification for a Northfield Ironwood drop point and a mini Cocobolo fixed blade. Then I decided "Hey, I'm a rebel I can carry any knife I want!" and got out the door.

Fast forward to this morning. I went downstairs to get a WW carry ( I always do Wooden Wednesday. Why? Who wouldn't want wood?). Went with some Blood and Iron, cool. Checked phone, it's Thursday... Well I'm not sure where I lost a day, that's the kind of week it's been, at least I can qualify for Three Blade Thursday here plus I love this carry. Not that I need internet knife stuff to get dressed, mind you ;)
Good to read ya'll, make your day lovely and look forward reading your posts whenever I can. Just have to kill this dragon first. With pocketknives.
