Thank you, JJLovely Fall image of your handsome HHB Dave!

What the heck, indeed. Both are nice, Gary, but that fixed blade is mesmerizing. You are giving Whetstone39 a run for the money with pairings like that.

Real nice triplets, my friend. You remind me of one reason I love my TL-29s. That heavy duty, high angle edge on the screwdriver blade is incredibly useful for the rough stuff.
Wonderful trio Rachel; your Catt pen is super cool!
Thanks, guys! I've been sticking with that combo all week.NICE line-up Rachel, think you've got it all covered there
I was just thinking... On a knife forum, should it be "Walk 'n Talk" like a pirate day?Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day
Aye, that knife snaps like Capt'n Hook's crocodile!I was just thinking... On a knife forum, should it be "Walk 'n Talk" like a pirate day?
Thanks Stuart! The truth is between the heat, the humidity, the riding mower, the push mower, the gas trimmer and the gas blower I’m beat my friend! I’m glad I didn’t need either one of my knives because I don’t think I could have opened it!I'm betting on the beast. Solid pair there,Ron.
That’s a beauty Jeff! I bet you don’t even know it’s in your pocket!This just in off the exchange, a few licks with stone and stick, and into the pocket it went. Thanks again, Colin!

That's a nicely varied trio, Rachel! I like the Casper the Friendly Ghost patina on the #29, and that little MOP is the Catt's meow!...
Today, I'm also carrying a Lambsfoot big-un and a cute little teeny-tiny Cattaraugus penknife in mother of pearl.

You're welcome, Nick. Some claim that you can't stop with just one Case peanut....
Thanks Gary for making me realize I don’t have a Case peanut and that I need one!
...
That sounds like a more than satisfactory life summary, Harvey!...
5K Qs - Thank you GT. What I lack monetarily has been more than adequately compensated in experiences. Wouldn’t trade one for the other. Wild about your Joker.

Thanks for the additional info about your melon tester....
Thanks. Jeff, I see the layers, too. It looks to be a laminated synthetic material that has been sanded down. The color is uniform on the edges with thin parallel lines that suggest lamination. I actually don't know. GT, Goins and Levine don't seem to be familiar with Myers, either. Yes, the tang stamp is a sunburst/rising sun. It really is a fun knife to tote.

I appreciate your comments, JJ....
Wonderful shots of your fearsome foursome Gary; you have almost every outdoor activity covered with those beauties!
Appealing pair, JJ; I really like the way GEC's Osage Orange ages!
Thanks, Jack....
Smashing bunch Gary
...
Those two seem to share a lot of knife DNA, Steve! I'd be interested in reading a compare/contrast of those two sometime.Northfield and a Remington
Welcome back, Tom! Good to see a fixed blade and scout on the rocks again!
Harvey, I'm always dumbstruck by the detail in your photos! They always show things that I've never seen with my (somewhat myopic) naked eyes!
IMHO, that Cattaraugus Barlow with the tiny script on the bolster is such an iconic knife, Gev! (And I was talking to some statistics students on Tuesday about how inflection points and standard deviations are related for Normal distributions! )Inflection point

Thanks, Dean. I certainly am partial to the Case CV chestnut jigged bone series, but they're not as easy to find at dealers these days as they used to be.Your Case Chestnut peanut is a gem, Gary!
...
That's a capital couple of knives, Jack! (Will you be carrying a Vendetta, or carrying OUT a Vendetta??)I'll be off to the market early in the morning, but in honour of International Talk Like a Pirate Day, I'll be carrying a Vendetta with my Lambsfoot Arrgghhh!
That swoopy, sweeping clip on the Case lockback is something else, Stuart!!It's Wednesday, so why wooden't I tote these two, old and newer: Cattaraugus boy's knife (C.C.C. Little Valley, N.Y. stamp, 1886-1963, 2 5/8") in ebony and a Case fishtail lockback (P1051 1/2 L SSP, 1986, 3 3/4") in Pakkawood.

You've sold me, Jack; versatility is the name of the game....
Thanks pal, I like its versatility, particularly combined with a Lambsfoot
That's a pair one certainly doesn't see every day! Intriguing knives, Jer!I did carry the Case, and my crkt art deco.

Jake on the job!!
I'm trying to catch up. Here are some posts that I think deserve another look, as I LIKE them. ...

I liked looking through the Rogue's Galleries you put together, Stuart!A few more at which I needed a second glance. Fine knives and pictures....

Congrats, Paul; that spey blade is special!Maher & Grosh "Texas Ranger" in DARK ebony arrived today...
Thanks for the tang stamp info, JJ. So the 6347 sometimes has a different blade combo than the clip/sheep/spey (which is the only blade trio I've seen on that pattern in my brief "knife life")?...
Thank you Gary!!! The "H" is for sheepfoot and the "P" is for spey; Case used the second letter of a blade name as "secondary blade" identifier, sometimes.
Outstanding trio Gary; your BSA Imperial is in spectacular condition!
I like that BSA knife.
Nice Knife!
