Ha ha ha ha ha! That is awesome! My head is spinning. It’s nearly as complex as your rotation schedule! Kudos, sir
Just trying to cope with the fact that there are so many knives, so little time!
Gary, of late 6 days as of today is a bit unusual, say compared to the almost 14 months straight that I carried my 2013 Clip/pen Ebony TC.
Now, that would be neat if that window was a fireplace
I meant to compliment you on one of your many Canoes you were totin last week. It had very unique and different covers and was one I hadn't seen before
Over a year with the same knife seems impressive to me now, Paul, even though when I was a kid, I carried my Forest-Master 24/7/365 for 7 or 8 years and it was my only knife, uncarried, for the next 45 years.
Thanks for the canoe compliment.
Kind of sad that I can't remember what canoes I carried last week, and since I had to make a new rotation schedule, I don't even have the old schedule on my computer any more to look up what I had in my pockets last week.
(I just looked through the recycling and found the old paper copy of my schedule. I carried a Rough Rider Bolster Stripes canoe last week with kind of "busy" bolsters but IMHO really nice jigging. I also carried a Frank Buster 4-blade canoe with quite nice green jigged bone.)
How about black for Friday?
Sweet Valox Buck 301, Vince!
Ha, ha, thanks Gary; sometimes I feel that old though the latter may be a more accurate description!!!
Triumphant trio you have today with your GEC performing an outstanding job of meal prep!
...
I appreciate your daily affirmations, JJ!
For Friday my totes are a couple with black covers; a Remington jack from the early 1930s and a NYKCo 75th BSA anniversary (1985) scout by Schrade.
Enchanting carries for Black Friday; that 2-blade swell-end jack is a corker!!
...
I'm stepping out on Friday with these two
Have a good Friday folks, the weekend is almost upon us
That ebony gunstock jack is a apt choice for Black Friday, and your stag HHB is an everyday delight!
That's a versatile trio!
Give it a try. The awl is great for all kinds of scraping jobs.
...
I'm inspired to carry a little celluloid today. (along with the ever present #29, of course)
That's a cool "lambsfoot" with the faux tortoise and its internal flame!
Camillus #17 and a #29 today
Noteworthy old/new pair, Steve!
Forum Knife Friday
Hope everyone has a great weekend!
Congrats on the elk Buck Forum Knife, Mike; looks like it has a tasty glaze on it!
JJ and
r8shell, thank you for the kind words about my little DE jack. Switching to black this morning with the modified ebony #85.
I always enjoy seeing that one, Jeff!
...
Two for today. The first is a Buckshot Bone Rough Rider. Newly acquired.

Congrats on the Buckshot Bone RR, Harvey!
I have a 2-blade teardrop and a canoe with those covers, but mine were made by Colt before they went under and RR picked up that line; I think they look great, and my teardrop jack is built like a tank - one of the most solidly-built knives I have.
On the other hand, I have nothing that compares to that exquisite stag senator you posted!
Thank you for your recommendation, Gary, and your comment on my stag stockman. I went with a single blade sowbelly; you can see it in my next post.
...
For Friday, one old friend and one new one.
My long time friend, Uncle Henry 897 stockman. I've had this one since 1985.
I got this one today, a Case Sowbelly Jack in CV and yellow synthetic.
Congrats on the single-bladed sowbelly, Dean!
And thanks for posting your Uncle Henry; that knife has everything I look for now in a medium stockman pattern!
Thanks Gary, we just got allot of rain overnight and few tree limbs down. Power went out at 4:30 am came back on today at 11:20 am, so all good there. I didn't need a canoe to get me out of any trouble
Good to hear, David.
As it happens I'm carrying two knives again today that have struck me that way when I seen others post them. One is the Case canoe, and the knife that was posted that gave me that twinkle in my eye was yours GT, I thought the deep blade etch of the Indian was the bees knees. The other I'm afraid I cant pinpoint the exact person or knife,although it may have been
@Duckdog that posted a one armed barlow with stepped bolsters that I thought was really cool. When I saw a nice example in a case at the antique mall my heart skipped a beat. Anyways heres a reused pic
I'm glad that red bone canoe I have inspired you, David
; I sure felt lucky to be able to buy one off the Exchange after lusting after the photos that others posted.
You have a dynamite duo there, with exceptional bone!!
I'm amazed how it's almost translucent, like I can see down into it past its surface.
My Peanut of the Week is a stainless Case delrin model I won in the first GAW I entered on The Porch (thanks, Cory):
Stag/Horn Knife of the Week is a Marbles ram's horn sowbelly stockman:
Lambsfoot of the Week is my 2018 ebony Guardians lambsfoot that I've named Black Jack:
- GT
