What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

I'm a big fan of knife-on-post photos, but you've upped the intensity with 2-knives-on-post-with-water-background! :thumbsup::cool::cool:

Thanks, GT. I was only slightly nervous about knocking one into the lake! 😲

Barrett they did a great job botching it.😁

Just living up to the porches standard with the GAW.

Two different styles two great knives Barrett.👌

No one botches a knife like GEC! 🤔😁
 
Thanks, Jack! Every time I see that photo of Harry Brearley, I think about the mural on the back of The Howard in Sheffield, which had sadly been vandalized by the time I visited. (If I remember correctly, it has since been replaced with something else.)

I don’t know why I didn’t take a picture of it when I was there — I must have passed it at least three or four times in the 24 hours or so I was in Sheffield — but for now, at least, it’s still preserved on Google street view, in tact from one side, and as it was when I was there from the other.

Me too Barrett :) Despite what Google may say though, that's actually the back wall of the old Cossack pub, rather than The Howard, a little further down the road (Howard Street). It was a terrible shame that the mural was vandalised like that, and for no reason I can see (Harry Brearley was an absolute diamond) :( Here the mural is with one of my few stainless Lambsfoot knives, by Stan Shaw :) :thumbsup:

Poor guy lost his pet and a revenue stream all in one day.

Two fine lambs, Jack! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:
Excellent choices for those holidays, Jack! :thumbsup::cool::cool:
Thanks Gary :) :thumbsup:
 
A gloomy day makes for a dark photo, but this little ‘bottom of a tool box’ $1.00 yard sale find is a favorite. I believe it’s a Cattaraugus, but only a faint Little Valley marking is present on a pitted and a bit corroded tang. Someday, perhaps I’ll try to clean it up, but I’ve got a slew of ‘someday projects’ in queue!🤪😜

Dandy duo of dark knives, Steve! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:
When I was a kid, a Yankee drill like that was my favorite style of drill. I could control it better than the "eggbeater" kind of drill, and WAY better than a "brace and bit" drill with the big U-shaped crank handle and the knob on top.

Thanks Gary !
 
Took the day off to spend the morning with my youngest ‘SJ’ on her birthday (now 4!). Breakfast at a diner at the old neighborhood that I hadn’t been to in about a decade.

Been carrying the cattle knife since Monday; it may stay in the pocket this whole week. With this amazing slip by sbh06 sbh06 to carry it, how can I not?
