What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

Good morning! I went out around 6 to start Pam's car to warm up and to roll the trash to the curb. It was 21°F with no wind and we had a frost that looked like a young snow! :eek: So my photos are from indoors this morning! :rolleyes: I'm carrying a new Opinel No.8 Sandvik with a Walnut handle, along with my Rosewood Hartshead Barlow! Y'all stay safe out there! :) :thumbsup:

My knife for today is my Citadel Coubi. Citadel is a company out of Cambodia led by a Frenchman.

A great little knife with a N690 Blade, black Horn and framelock. One of the sharpest knifes out of the box I have.

Recycled picture due to bad weather.

There was a knife shop in Ottawa that sold Citadel knives. While I was on my initial knife buying spree, I was rather intrigued with Citadel knives but always seemed to bypass them and bought something else (usually ones that had a butterfly on them). The assortment of friction folders always drew me, but alas I never bit.

I always bought my knives at the store but meant to view the Citadel knives and handle a few. Unfortunately, the knife store closed last November and my chance to see those knives up close and personal is now gone and likely forever.

Pam and I were able to meet up with Jeff Amir Fleschwund Amir Fleschwund along with his lovely wife and daughter at a local Cracker Barrell for breakfast this morning. Jeff and his family are traveling back home after returning their granddaughters back home to Georgia. I reached out to Jeff and we were able to meet. It was a wonderful time and a great visit. ...

Thanks for breakfast, Ron!
Really great to see you again, buddy, and so glad Vickie got to meet you and Pam! After we pulled back on the road, she said “that was fun, and you’re right. Ron and Pam are really nice folks!”

I really like the canoe pattern, but sometimes worry that most canoes are VERY similar to one another. Your example is certainly a nonstandard example of the pattern! :eek::cool::cool:

Delightful duo, Jack! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool: That all-stainless Rodgers is tasteful gentility personified (more accurately, knifified, I suppose :rolleyes:).

Miscellaneous Knife of the Week for me is a Schrade whittler (thanks, Tony):

Big Knife of the Week, a Rough Rider Improved Muskrat, is probably longer than average, but not particularly large overall:

Watch Pocket Knife of the Week is a Chinese Imperial mini canoe (shown here with its big brother):

Beautiful stag, José. I was going to say both sides match pretty well, then realized it's the same side in both pics! :D I am enjoying my FP Thiers knife too.

It is a beauty, gift from @Âchillepattada. As for the Danish cookies, I saw my daughter with a small tin. She keeps sewing stuff in it. I mentioned that my grandmother always had a tin of Danish butter cookies around, and wanted to buy some. I guess she went shopping with my wife, because they brought that tin home recently. Didn't last long, even though a "serving size" is four cookies!
Carrying the Laguiole again today:
