Heading out to see my oldest daughter graduate from Eastern Washington University tomorrow. Then it is on to Montana to see my granddad, who if he is still alive by then, will be 102 in August. I have a Victorinox Swiss Army knife in the car, as always but I’m going to take the 66 with me for the entire trip.
Congrats to you and yours for the milestones!
Sounds like an excellent journey to start on Father's Day weekend!
That's a zesty little pen knife!
Tempted by the titillating toothpicks recently released from Titusville and posted in this thread, I promptly went downstairs to the knife piles and pocketed this Queen City pair for today's toothsome twosome tote.
...
Only the larger one (1925-1932) is from the original Queen City era; the smaller one is from 2016.

Those two toothpicks are too terrific, Stuart!
I'm Boisterously Beholden, GT.
...
Continuing with my Lamb and Barlow pairings today. Blade shape redundancy... But I lack a black clad Barlow with a different blade shape. Makes for a devilishly handsome pair, all the same.
Dazzling dark duo, Dylan!
...
Is there anything better than Friday Morning with Knives, Coffee & a Tasty Breakfast?
Yes there is! The 1st day of V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N
I hope your vacation exceeds your high expectation, Del!
New arrival! And in my pocket while I'm "gardening"....

Congrats on that Farmer's jack, Taylor; incredible bone!
...
That is another special stag by RR, Gary!
...
Thanks, Dean.
I'm very fortunate that
@black mamba was willing to part with them, especially since they came out before I even knew RR existed.
Today is Flag Day in the U.S. and also the birthday of the U.S. Army. These seemed appropriate.
Well-chosen combo, Dean!
Notable pair of Buck lockbacks!
...
That is quite a showboat, GT. There's a lot going on for such a small package. Delightful, actually.
...
- Stuart
Thanks for noticing, Stuart.
The pearl is 4 5/8" closed, so not such a small package.
I think I know why
5K Qs
wears suspenders!
Utility, Vince!
Whale of a knife combo, Rachel!
A Cadet or Pioneer? My first Alox just arrived a moment ago, a dark green Pioneer. I've had countless plastic covered SAKs but these are clearly on another level.
Congrats on the Alox!
For me, that first Alox was love at first touch!
Thanks professor, I was curious of its whereabouts. I suppose all good things come to an end. Glad to see a new one has begun tho
The GAW you started certainly had a great run!
Probably got up to near 20 rounds?
Thank you Sir. Your Rough Riders are smooth as silk.
...
Thanks, Harvey.
...
Thanks GT! We have had very nice "easy livin'" so far this summer. The humidity hasn't reared its ugly head yet.
...
Beautiful ebony lamb GT.
Wow! That is a fancy rig. Looks like a Mardi Gras float!
...
Thanks for the props for my ebony lamb and my new pearl gunboat, Dwight.
Glad the humidity hasn't come up yet; we've been cooler and wetter than normal so far.
2018 Forum Knife today.

Splendid pic of your Buck Forum knife, with top-notch stag!!
How do you like that no-frills throwback sharpening stone in the pic?
For Saturday:
Rosewood lambsfoot from A. Wright & Son Ltd, Sheffield, England; and:
Amber bone trapper from W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Co., Bradford, Pennsylvania, USA.
Much more than adequate choices, Vince!
...
Great line-up GT
...
Here's me today...
Lambsfoot Barlow for work
Vendetta for play!
Thanks, Jack.
We know that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, so it's wise that you've chosen a pair that helps you stay sharp!
Today it's these. A #18 Camillus Jack and a 1081 Kabar Stockman.
...
...
Distinguished duo, and the lines of that Kabar stockman are especially lovely!!
(But WHY do they leave the sheep tip so proud??)
GEC #14 in Ebony and A Wright Lambsfoot in African Rosewood
Tremendous timber twosome, John!
That's my kind of Barlow!
