Carrying these two today, in honor of A.G. Russell. Two of the many, many knives I've purchased from him over the years.

Some say that Queen's modern knives, like this one, can't be classics, but that knife blows such commentary away.

Thank you, Stuart, beautifully said. In my experience, Queen's and S&M's from the '90s into the early '00s are as good as any production knives, ever.

Another incredible acronymic coincidence: BF stands for both Blade Forums and Black Forest! That's an illustrious stag whittler, FBC!

Your old cross Electrician is exquisite, FBC!

As is true every day of every week, I'm carrying these knives:

Arresting Opinel mod! Another charred handle finish, or is that some type of dark stain?

Thanks for all the kind words, GT. The Opinel was another victim of the torch.
Are these knives your steady companions? If so, I can understand why.

Carrying some rosewood today, and some MOP Lambsfoot by A.Wright, Penknife by W. Green

Nice duo, Jack. The W Green pen is a looker and you captured the color in the MOP nicely. Though, I am sure it looks much better in person, as MOP always does.

Have a fantastic day everyone!

Payin’ bills today, don’t want nothin’ too big in case I get depressed and decide to collect on the insurance.

Figure I can’t mortally wound myself with this.

10 years ago we made this one, the third of the Traditional Forum’s knives and one of my favorites. Northwoods medium Stockman in Burnt Stag. IIRC there were only 50 made, this one is # 13.

 

[Half/Stop]

Those two tick all the boxes Ron

Thanks Jack! I totally agree!

Bob’s style is unmistakable, I have one of his original Arkansas Toothpicks, great knife. Bob’s the master of D2.

Great pic, great pairing.

I have this little guy with me today. Clinging to the colors of summer a bit. I've paired it with a larger modern folder per my usual when I have the 14 but I'll keep that one out of it

Some more pictures from my travels the past few days

The first one was taken on the same stretch of road on US-163 that Forrest Gump decided he was done running. I love that movie and HAD to take a picture

This one is on the south rim of the Grand Canyon. First time seeing it. Talk about BIG

Took this one today. There is a place just outside of Tuba City AZ that has a bunch dinosaur tracks frozen in time. It was really cool to walk amongst them.

Now that would be cool !!! Thanks for the great pictures my friend .

A glowing example of a great knife.

Thanks, John I see what you did there.

Jack Black The colors on the MOP shadow is beautiful. The shadow pen pattern is so simple and classy and the MOP just adds the elegance.

@Fodderwing Very nice whittler!

@Amir Fleschwund Beautiful pair you have there today.

Gevonovich Me like that kissing crane Congress. The covers are real nice.

Eisenhower pen for me today.

 

[RDaneel]

TC must mean Tremendous Combo, Dean!

- GT

Thank you, Gary!

Oh, by the way, I'm carrying knives myself this week!
Alox of the Week is an old cross Pioneer:

Canoe of the Week is a Rough Rider "Bolster Stripes" model with bone I consider very attractive:

- GT

Gary, it is always nice to see your old rugged cross. Is your striped bolster Canoe a new acquisition? I like the bone on that one, too.

 

[RDaneel]

The weather has reached that temperature where I am wearing denim. To commemorate that and Wooden Wednesday, I'm carrying my ebony Presidential.

 

[GunGraber]

Now that would be cool !!! Thanks for the great pictures my friend .

Harry
