What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

GEC Antique TC Barlow 2.0 and Case XX Jack.

 

Just a little Barlow for a Wooden Wednesday.

 

I don’t know what it is about Fall, but I seem to drop a slipjoint in my pocket more and more this time of year.

 

NYKCo & Ulster

 

Ding...ding....ding We have a winner !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow Shawn

 

@Jack Black they've kept me nice and toasty, JB! Thanks!

@Gevonovich High praise coming from someone with such an impressive collection as yourself! Thank you, Gev!

 

@JJ Cahill - Thank you JJ. Beautiful Laguiole and Le Thiers.

@Gevonovich - I often see traditionals that while beautiful are missing parts, or in some way are damaged. Your beautiful Ulster Barlow changes my thinking.

Two carried. The first was inspired by JJ.

 

The 212 sure looks like a classic, they're currently only available as an SFO for C&C and SK blades but it's a real winner and is slate to become an iconic classic for sure.

I have no particular reason to love Buck knives, I just love what they're doing and they know what people want.

 

Thank you kind Sir

What is that projectile ?? Cool images and great knives & tool

The Ulster is one of my all time favorite knives just like it is ( cutaway....old cutaway cue Bond music )

 

Just returned from a trip to South Dakota and I am 45 pages behind on this thread

The sky in SD always grabs my attention.



Carrying these two today.

 

@Gevonovich - Thank you Gev. The “projectile” is a sterling silver Bomb Bead.

 

I love ‘em.
The only thing I cannot stomach is HGTV, which Mrs Fleschwund would happily watch endlessly.

Anyway, tv time is for knife maintenance, reading, or noodling on guitar.

 

I'm so glad I don't have cable any more. Been reading more lately, and so has my wife.

 

Those are some fine Autumn pics, Jack, and of course, the Ebony is even finer.


Eschewing the typical "Wooden Wednesday" today and opting for some fall colors myself.

 

You have some fine old friends, Rachel.

I'm right with you, Jack, in not keeping up with the pace on The Porch of late!
Lots of lambs' feet visible in your photo of the stag lambsfoot!

That's a long and lovely Laguiole, Harvey, with striking covers!

That's a distinguished dark duo, Dean, and a couple of the medium jacks that have suddenly been catching my attention here!

That brace of bareheads is a beauty, Steve!

Glad you and Stuart could meet, Ron! I'm certainly impressed by a stag Churchill and a jigged bone WCLF!

Cool covers on the cattle knife, JJ!

Thanks for saying so, John.

Condolences on losing an old friend, Jeff.

Thanks for the encouragement, Dean.

Yeah, I'm sure most of us have habits whose origins are inexplicable.
Thanks for acknowledging my knives, Jeff.

Congrats on another luminous Laguiole, Harvey! I like the way juniper seems to have tiny paw prints all over it.

Sublime, Gev!

I'm perfectly happy with my Folger's crystals stirred into a microwaved cup of skim milk.

Thanks for the replies, Jack.
Wonderful pairing you have!

Choice covers on that one, Paul!

Your Grandpa was a dapper dude, Jeff, and that Camillus EO teardrop is a classic!

That's outstanding, Paul!

Thanks for the info, Alan. My eyes are not what they used to be.

Thanks, Harvey. My photo processing software menu says it's "noir"!

Thanks for all the kind words, JJ.

Thanks, Jack.
Splendid pearls on parade!

That slender stockman is a real looker!
