You aren't just whistlin' Dixie, Taylor!!
2019 Case delrin Barlow with CV blades and a pre 1961 Fieldmaster
That yellow/red combo will brighten any day, Paul!
Did old Fieldmaster come with a big clip like that, or is that a blade mod?
...
Back in lockdown until March here apparently
Carrying my 'hard times' TC Barlow, and a Sheffield Lambsfoot re-covered in African Blackwood by

That's a distinguished and versatile pair, Jack; you could keep those in your pocket all week and display them proudly for both Wooden Wednesday and Black Friday!
Today with one of these black Victorinox alox with normal and red shield.
...
Notable pair of black Pioneers, José!
Congrats on that terrific trio, John, and kudos to Harry for his generosity!
These working knives today. The astute amongst you may notice thats not my normal truck. Probably not though, I've not posted many pics with the other one lol.
Anyways my ol 97 Ford's engine is giving up the ghost, so for Christmas my Dad gave me his old Chevy. My best friend upon learning that apparently overnight I went from a dedicated Ford guy to a Chevy guy said "Welcome to the dark side"
I've heard people say they'd rather push their brand truck over driving another brand. Even if someone gave it to them, well I've always said "If someone gave me one I'd happily drive it til the wheels fall off." Well guess I talked that into being
Couple of capable black knives, David!
How are you liking that RR Half Hawk?
Congrats on the new truck, too!
I'm with you in not having much brand loyalty when it comes to vehicles. I've had a Plymouth Barracuda, Rambler Ambassador (briefly), Toyota Corolla, Plymouth Arrow, Eagle Summit, Isuzu pickup, Dodge Caravan, Honda Civic, and Ford Focus.
Ya, I don't care too much for knowing everything about steel types... Case CV and SS have served me well.
...
Cool Cadet, GT. I like the striped Alox?
I need to get another Cadet, I have a habit of buying them and giving them away.
...
It's always good to see your Cadet 2; I wish Victorinox would go back to that pattern.
...
I feel like Batman wrote that line! Thanks bud!
I think that is the coolest looking ALOX I've seen - the ribbed finish is new to me.
...
Thanks for the Cadet 2 compliments, John & Dean & Bruce & José!
I also enjoy the unique look of the ribbed Alox, and I prefer having the pen blade to having the current Cadet's file tool.
First post here. Case Peanut in chestnut bone and CV, a gift from my wife in 2014 and carried daily since. A razor sharp worry stone that ages well, and does everything I need it to without scaring anybody. Love it and her!
Belated welcome to The Porch,
@Comfortably Numb !
I have a Peanut just like yours; splendid knife!

Pair of Aces, Dean!
Thanks, JJ; I agree about the MAMs!
Uh oh!
Jack Black
inspired snack this afternoon
Cheese on toast with Hendersons! Only thing that would have made it better would have been if I'd thrown a lambsfoot in the pocket this morning!
...
Nice snack, Mike!
You and Jack inspired me to have grilled extra sharp cheddar cheese sandwich for lunch a couple of times this week, but I forgot to take pics. (I supplemented the cheese with onions, dill slices, mustard, thinly sliced apple, and, for one day, summer sausage.
)
Sticking with Case Whittlers, 5383 for today. OH
Another handsome whittler!
Today I walk with this Portuguese from Francisco Cangueiro in Bovine horn and Liner lock.
...
Exceptional knife, José!

Your photo really displays the great grain in that wood!
I don't think I've ever noticed that version of a Böker shield before.
Osage for Wooden Wednesday.
Good wood, ideal steel, bellwether leather!!
