Will, that's a glenbad re-covered 15 in stainless that I bought from one of our mutual Porch friends. It figures you'd like the stainless one. :) It has been a superb EDC! :thumbsup::thumbsup:
 
Three chosen some years back for one of those 'if you could only have threads'
Similarity: compact knives. Differences: 1 spring knife 3 blades, 1 lockback. 1. Fixed. D2, Sandvik, Carbon. Jigged Bone, Horn, Wood.

Unfortunately, lost the Fontenille-Pataud this time last year on some boring business trip :( But you never know, been lucky before with missing/errant knives returning. Power of prayer, smoke, positive thoughts please friends :D:thumbsup:

NIce - same frame with 3 different blade profiles - very noteworthy trifecta indeed !
Yep! The Northfield is my favorite, but there’s something to be said about the simplicity of the Tidioute clip.

Wow great knives!!!:thumbsup::thumbsup:
I have a couple 72s and like them very much though one takes a whole lot of thumb pressure to release the lock. Could I ask if you have any issues with them...blade wobble or difficulty unlocking? Thanks.:)
There’s some front to back play on the clips. The wharncliffe has some very slight side to side, but locks up tight and is harder to disengage. Neither bothers me. I think I prefer the lighter locking with a little more play though.

Thanks for the info, your experience is similar to mine. No issue is too big of a problem but I think I prefer GEC's liner locks. You can see the lock and know what is going on.

I can understand that. I don’t know what it is, but the 72 grew on me fast and I’ve come to love the backlock.
 
one is an individual, two is a pair, three is a collection
so here's a collection of lambfoot knives, each with it's own distinct character

In my world it is "one is an accident, two is a coincidence, and three is a pattern." My pattern is 15s with crown lifters, all the better if they are blood red. This trifecta also represents some unique designers, one is a SFO from Mike, one is a SFO from Charlie, and one is a Rendezvous parts knife:

Hunting season is right around the corner, a picture of a “hunters trifecta” - my three most carried Buck hunting knives; the 118 Personal, the 110 Folding Hunter, and the 303 Cadet - with those I can clean any game I take and accomplish whatever outdoorsman task presents itself while I’m out in farm, forest, or field.
