What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Good to see you Kevin :thumbsup:
Thanks, Jack.
That is a fine pair for Wooden Wednesday

Some great classics.
Thank you, sir.

Alright, since you posted those fine pictures Kevin, but if it happens again:rolleyes:...;):D

For me today, a very pocketable pruner. 2015 smooth Camel bone 47:thumbsup: aging nicely, as it was stark white when it first arrived, some color is starting to set in:thumbsup:

I will give it a try but can't promise anything. ;):p:D

I was going through some of my collections yesterday and refound a couple of my early purchases.

Dang it, I still need to try out one of those Mercator knives, I just keep forgetting to grab one.
Between your and Gary's 5K Qs 5K Qs posts. I will remember one day. :rolleyes::D

Yesterday's tote'

It's a Stockman. I love the sunk joints, thin blades, and low profile. This is what I judge others of this pattern against. And most come up short...
 
Majestic mammoth, Dee! :eek::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Mastodon Monday.
Ditto, Ken!! :thumbsup::thumbsup: What a prestigious Presidential! :cool::cool:

Today I gave the privilege of walking in my pocket to this GEC 15 in the Rust Jigged Bone of 2014...
What a classic jack knife, Senhor Pinto! :cool::cool::thumbsup:

It doesn’t usually sit on a pedestal, but just this once.... ;)
Very cool, Greg! ;):thumbsup::cool: It suggests a whole new category of projects I hadn't considered: mini furniture! :)

Case jack for me today.
Iconic jackknife! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:

Carrying a couple of oldies today, by Alfred Blackwell and Joseph Allen :thumbsup:

Pairing a Terry Primos Platypus (curly maple and forged 1084) with my Lloyd today.... The outdoor lighting shows the true color of the curly maple.

Welcome back, FBC. :) That's a heavenly half-dozen! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool: If we're required to rank them, I'll put the SBJr and the sowbelly as 1 and 1A! ;):thumbsup:

Thank you Gev! :) The redbone is a 06247 PEN from 1974. Two blades a single spring and that delicious redbone. What’s not to like!!! :D

Nick & Ron, those are a couple of outstanding Cases! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:

Some days it just seems everything is topsy-turvy :confused::D
Cool thematic pic, Ken! :thumbsup::thumbsup::D

5K Qs 5K Qs The stag talon with damascus was one of the first Lloyd's I acquired. I carry it to show off because it's so nice but the blade shape is not my favorite.
Thanks for the follow-up, Alan. :)

Thanks, Gary! It was an anniversary gift from the Mrs. a couple of years back.
...
Nice pairing. I like the slender clip points!:thumbsup:
You'd better keep the Mrs.!! :thumbsup:;);) Thanks for the stockman remarks. :)

I am impossibly behind on this thread and my likes after an extended weekend, the thread moves way too fast :). I have these two with me today.

I like those foreign imports, Dave! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Thank you, Gary! Both your posted knives are top drawer and the 897UH is a favorite of mine :); however, I am very impressed with that RR in stag! :thumbsup::thumbsup:
...
Thanks for the good word, Dean. :) Splendid Böker Barlow; the jigged bone covers seem less common than sawcut ones! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Got some good mileage on that one! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:

Good wood, Jack, both Big 'un and Plow! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:

Despite the fact that it's a day shrouded by freezing fog...I wish I could go out for a walk but instead, cooped up at work:rolleyes: Still, it's healthy to dream and I would take this old companion with me, GEC from 08.

Stunning knife, Will! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:

I've enjoyed your recent knife and feather series, sir! ;):thumbsup::thumbsup:

Plain canoe this week for me is a Rough Rider in gunstock checkered bone (thanks, Will):

A little Snakewood for wooden Wednesday. It’s cold and crisp out today the day before the storm so I figured I’d take out a couple of favorites. On the bottom, custom Ray Cover Sr. Drop Point with ATS34 blade, stainless hardware, with dovetailed Snakewood Scales. (This is one of my favorite slipjoints, factory or custom and one of my top 5 knives all around.)

Top knife is a 100 y/o Graeff & Schmidt smoothbone Jack Knife I rescued from the scrap pile.

Great pic Greg :D :thumbsup:

Very cool, Greg! ;):thumbsup::cool: It suggests a whole new category of projects I hadn't considered: mini furniture! :)

Thanks Jack and GT. It was just a fun little diversion to see if I could carve a column with a quarter twist. I figured it might as well be put to occasional service. ;)

Carrying this ebony combo today!

What a great combo it is!

Yowza! That’s a fantastic combo.

Sunny, indeed! I like it. :thumbsup: Is that an older knife, or current production?

That smooth bone jack is my second favorite of your rehabbed knives, next to the old Union Knifeworks moose.
This looks interesting! :thumbsup::cool::cool: Another of your rehab projects, Rachel?
Yep! Just an old Camillus Camper with new bocote wood covers.

Today, for Wooden Wednesday, a couple of rosewoods.
