My contribution to "Wooden Wednesday" consists of these three.. (my watch pocket knife is jigged bone )
The forum knife in blackwood, the 29 stockyard whittler in osage, and the 62 easy pocket in desert ironwood. Did I mention I really like cargo pants?
I figure I'm ready for anything work throws my way today....

That's sad Jeff.On a sad note, we heard the news this morning that a local facility (6miles from our house) is the Virus hotspot in our area. It’s a housing facility for disabled and handicapped adults, and they have lost four or five of the older residents, with other residents and staff infected.
My daughter participates with many of them through the Special Recreation Association, and we have many friends and acquaintances with family members there, so my heart breaks at this news.
My thoughts and prayers to all involved. Stay safe my friend!

Trying to catch up in this thread by limiting myself to only one quote per page, but I'm not man enough to follow my own rules!
I have a pen knife just like yours that's one of my favorite knives, and a Buck 501 is high on my "buy soon' list!
What do you plan to do with the mulberries you pick? I've had no regrets about getting rid of a mulberry tree in our yard decades ago; it always resulted in annual messes.
(But I'm biased; see below)
Your yellow pair is a great reminder of the Son Rise we celebrate at Easter!
You're an artist, John!
Give a man a stag GEC #73 and he's happy for a lifetime!
Your daughter's photos are very cool, Harry!
(I know it DOES happen, and not infrequently, but it SHOULDN'T. ) My daughter in Minneapolis was severely bummed out by the situation.
Miscellaneous knife for me this week is a Case sawcut 2-blade Barlow:
Big Knife of the Week is an Imperial USA clip/pen toothpick, one of my favorite knives since my Grandpa carried one just like it (thanks, Dave):
Watch Pocket knife this week is a Rough Rider smooth tobacco bone canittler:
- GT
Pair of aces!
I have a pen knife just like yours that's one of my favorite knives, and a Buck 501 is high on my "buy soon' list! What a venerable skinny pair, Stuart!As I mentioned to @r8shell , I'm totin' these old slim fellas today: H. Böker (1869-1914) and W.H. Morley & Sons (1913-1927).
...
- Stuart
Outstanding stag!Got the old girl out of the cupboard for today and having a Modern free day .
That Böker is a beauty, Rachel!...
Thanks, Jack. I plan to go back in about a week with a little bag and pick some. I'm pretty sure I'll remember where it is.
...
What do you plan to do with the mulberries you pick? I've had no regrets about getting rid of a mulberry tree in our yard decades ago; it always resulted in annual messes. Praiseworthy pair of knives, Steve; wow!Saturday tote
...
Dynamic stag duo, Vince!
Lambsfoot & Langres
Captivating Case canoe, @Catch911!
Going with these two from Case for today.
JJ & Jim, those saw cut brown bone Case Barlows really excel!
(But I'm biased; see below
)Frank, that cherry Buck 501 with the distinctive knot in the middle of the handle is an attractive knife, and I always admire that Silver Knight when you post it!
2 fine knives, Bruce; I really like the unusual blade combo on the Camillus congress!Happy Easter to my fellow Porch dwellers! Camillus Congress and BuckLite for the last three days. OH
...
Belated same to you, Jeff!
Your yellow pair is a great reminder of the Son Rise we celebrate at Easter!Well-said, Jon!
Intriguing knife with glorious stag, José!Today with this excellent old knife that unfortunately was shortened, maybe a Lambsfoot, with a magnificent stag, which has no mark and I think it was made in Sheffield!
......
There's an image I don't see every day!
You're an artist, John! Give a man a pineapple upside down cake and he's happy for a day.Today my bride of almost 60 years made us a Pineapple Upside Down Cake and of course I helped by only putting the cherries in place and putting a timer on .
...

Harry
Give a man a stag GEC #73 and he's happy for a lifetime!
Your daughter's photos are very cool, Harry!
Excellent photos, as usual, Harvey; that Silver Knight shot is incredible!
Amazing aggregation of "anorexic" knives, Stuart!No, r8shell, but the perspective in that picture is misleading. They aren't melon tester size. Here they are with some real melon/citrus/sausage testers:
...
The Wilson Sausage tester is 10 1/2" OAL. I toted the yellowish one today; it was a pleasure.
- Stuart
That shouldn't happen in April, Barrett!...
Yesterday I was sitting on the front porch in shorts and a t-shirt. Today it snowed most of the morning.

I'm not a big fixed blade kind of guy, but that one sure is nice.Light yard work today to get me outside a bit in the fresh air, so I do have a legitimate reason to walk around my house with a fixed blade.
