What "Traditional Knife" are ya totin' today?

[mcc850]

Had my dad make me a pocket slip for this 23 and I’m giving itView attachment 1580726View attachment 1580725 a try today. Given size of knife I wanted a belt loop to keep it upright. I also asked him to make it along the lines of a Tom Threeperson’s holster so that I could easily and quickly withdraw knife from my pocket.

That thing is sweet! Your dad has great skills.

Sorry you didn't get a bite John, but it still sounds like a great way to start the day

Thank you, Jack.
Yes, it was still fun to get to the mountains and stretch my legs.

Super cool knife pouch.

Oregon Trapper & S&M swell center, single spring two blade. The Schatt is 3-7/8 closed and without half stops, which I prefer. Curious to know, is this knife considered a large pen knife or a half-whittler? In other news my daughter delivered my 7th grandchild, a healthy boy and I'm feeling blessed and on top of the world today.

Congrats on your 7th grandchild, Greg!
How about Swell Center Half Whittler? Just a guess!

Nice pairing... the bone on the Barlow is really cool.

Thanks John. It feels good in the hand as well.

Just got back from my early morning fishing trip... the fish didn't cooperate much.

I bet it won’t keep you from trying again real soon!

One last comment on awesomeness, I promise. What an awesome pair, Rachel.

Both beauties Rachel Wait! Is that discolouration on the blades?!

Patina, patahta...
At this rate, I'll barely get 100 years use out of 'em.

Maybe I should add this Germania Cutlery Works to my pocket today, just to show 'em what's in store.

I'm about ready to give up on that river.
It's not a natural trout stream and I don't think they've planted it in a couple of years.

With me again today, and it passes the slice test. I was fairly sure it would. Nice thin blade stock and a deep spear. It's my new salami and cheese knife.

Spotted a squirrel on the loose in the backyard this morning. I'll have to carry this Buck 112 LT for protection when I go out to the truck for my afternoon mail run.

Makes sense to carry a serious knife - those squirrels are dangerous

Nice looking Coffin Jack! I'm not familiar with the maker, but that knife piques my interest.

Michael is a great man to deal with, I told him i like the coffins and he kept me informed every step of the way, a photo of every step of the build!

Those Sabre-toothed squirrels still running around the Devil’s Garden? Mean little cusses when I’ve run into them!
