Post your favourite photo of your Traditional knife

[JD Bear]

I don't keep a lot of my pictures, but I always liked this one...

I'll call it "Waiting For Spring".

Perfect!

I am terrible at photographing my knives.

Not terrible at all, Bigfattyt. I find your pics to be quite interesting and your knives all look very much at home on the range.

Great thread and pics by all. I'm only through one page of viewing, saving the remaining pages to scan and enjoy after dinner.

Gary W. Graley I like this idea for a thread. I’m no photographer, and with knives in particular it seems like things can really be hit or miss. But every once in a while I get lucky and end up with a photo that I really like, and it’s fun to have an opportunity to go back through and revisit some of those “favorite” photos (not to mention getting to see everyone else’s favorites).

I took this one on the beach at Durdle Door, on the Jurassic Coast in Dorset, England.

Here’s a non-knife photo from the same location.

And another photo from that trip to England, at a pub in Bath called The Raven.

I’ve always liked this baseball-themed shot of my TC Day’s Work.

This was a photo I took a few years ago, and recently rediscovered when looking through my photos for something else.

Decent photo, favorite whisky.

A few others:

Well sir, I'd say those were bangers right there ! very nice, I appreciate you guys/gals contributing to this fun thread as well.
it's a memory lane for a lot of the knives I've posted, as they have moved on to new homes, miss them all, here's one I picked up at GEC at one of the fall meet and greets, great bunch of folks there too.

Double dipping here as I just posted this elsewhere. But I love it so much i don’t care!

I’m currently in the process of cleaning out my home office as we’re looking to move and had to take this pic before I put away this framed parchment that my parents gave me from India.

This SFO was called Exotic India Bone - well, they nailed it.

A couple more. What the heck.

All these pictures of Whiskey are disturbing me...run out and it's super expensive here say 50USD for an average everyday bottle

Great idea for a thread Gary I've never decided which is a favourite knife and as a photographer I'm very lightweight, but I like this one as the Stag on it is so grand

 

[Will Power]

Don't mind this one either, bleak

 

[Ice Tigre]

I always like this one, it came out rather nice at the time, and its great still having it all this time later(the pic, and the knife!)

My first peanut, from June of 2008.

One more recent thats a favorite, although not really artistic, is from when the only knife I had on me, what was in my eating kit for the day got pressed into service cleaning and skinning a bunny I shot last May.

 

[jwb01]

Given my lack of photographic skills I thought thissun came out well enough. Definitely one of my favorite knives..

 

[Old Hunter]

A few favorite Lock-Back knife photos.

Buck 110 - celebrating being back to real ebony handles.

Case Hammerhead in the fall woods.

Pocketknife lock-back as well, Case Mini-Copperhead. OH

 

[Austin King]

Hello,

I hope not to be off topic by posting here traditional but not American knives. (otherwise I will delete my post without any problem).
I only have a few US knives.
My favorite knives are not traditional ones outside of Laguiole and Dorgalese Sarde. And my other traditional ones are not my favorites...
So I played the game by putting only my favorite traditional ones that I use most often.

Dorgalese by Davide Steri, traditional Sardinian knife, ambroony root handle, San-Mai steel blade

Slipjoint sway back by Cosimo De Benedetto, burr walnut and blade in 01 steel

Laguiole full walnut handle, XC75 blade by Pierre-Yves Joyeux

These are simple but very useful and efficient knives.

I hope not to be off topic by posting here traditional but not American knives.

Traditional knives come from all around the world, not just the USA.
Some are exclusively American, but most were borrowed from somewhere else.

I am drooling a bit from these pics. Nice.

Here is a favorite, both the single blade sheep’s foot GEC and the pic of the sandwich I made with it.



And this is from trip to the cabin for a few relaxing days. Dinner time! A fixed blade Blind Horse Knives, the Ranger if I remember correctly; scandi grind? A favorite knife and I still have it. Great times there.
