Imperial Cattle knife today !

Always nice to gaze on this one, Steve.
Old Imperials are about as good as any production knives ever, imo.

Thanks, Dean; I feel very fortunate to have stumbled upon that one!

That's an outstanding half-whittler, Dean! What cover material? (Do you and @Jack Black share a "photo pool" for watery backgrounds? )

Thanks, Dean. (I've started my "Asimov Summer" by picking up The Complete Robot, a compilation of robot short stories. Yesterday I read "Mirror Image", which featured you and Elijah Baley solving a dispute between 2 mathematicians. )

Gary, Case calls the bone on my half-whittler "smooth antique bone." The only pool Jack and I have in common is the big one separating the British isles from North America.

Re: Mirror Image: I remember that case (of course)!

In addition to the knives I carry each week in a variety of categories as dictated by my rotation schedule, I often carry a couple of "free choice" knives that catch my fancy for the week. This week those knives are a Case Caliber LT347 stockman (I call it large - not sure what Case calls the size) and a Joker 3 1/4" stag lockback:

Your Joker has great stag, Gary.

I am still struggling with a terrible internet connection here, and I'm afraid it's likely to be like that at least until Monday I'm heading out hiking tomorrow, armed to the teeth! Have a great weekend folks

Looks like you are well armed, Jack! That's a great photo of your superb Damascus Stag Lambsfoot.

Beautiful cat! (oh, great knife, too )

My latest acquisition, Red bone CV Sway Back Jack.

Haven't carried this Case SS 6347 Stockman with jigged Walnut bone covers for awhile so I dropped it in my pocket this morning.

Haven't carried this Case SS 6347 Stockman with jigged Walnut bone covers for awhile so I dropped it in my pocket this morning.

The walnut bone with lined bolsters is one of the best looking series of modern case knives.

Looks really good! What are those scales? Some kind of stabilised wood, micarta??

Thanks, will

Great job on the re-cover.

Nice work! I also am curious about the scales.

Thanks for the kind words, guys. I can improve on it, but it’s very functional. The material is rag micarta. I stumbled across a guy on Instagram that makes micarta and it turned out he lives in the next city south of me, so I met up with him and bought some material to try some re-covers.

The rag is a bit porous and seems to pick up dirt from my grungy hands at work. I need to clean it up and try to seal it with something. Maybe more oil or bees wax?
