Your newest addition:traditionals of course!

Couldn't resist this little Rough Rider lockback in carbon steel, couldn't resist testing if it really was carbon steel with some ketchup


This sowbelly trapper was kinda neat so of course it came home as well.

Turns out that the peak at the end of the spey was uncomfortable to down right painful to the inside of my little finger during a few test cuts However using a small Nicholson file I modded it into kinda a drop point and its good to go now

 

Craftsman 9554

 

Ron, that's an absolute gem of a whittler!

 

Those 9554’s are great.

 

Thank you Jeff!

Thanks, I’m was proud to get it!

 

Got this 5 1/4 closed IXL jack last week.

 

I picked up a 74 to go with my Moran Eureka. This one has some killer jigged bone (the only downside is the huge etch on the blade; easily remedied).

 

I'm relieved. When you spend more than you're used to on a knife you hope like heck you're gonna like it ...

 

Schatt and Morgan 43½ carpenters whittler.

 

New Buck 301 in rosewood. The pulls are probably around 3. The 373 below has much tighter pulls.

 

Just pulled this out of the mailbox, and couldn’t be happier!

 

I waited way too long to pick up this pair of Mora 510 Allrounds. These used to be the most rudimentary of Moras, and sold fot 5 or 6 bucks. Morakniv discontinued the 510s, and supplanted them supplanted them with the 511, which still sells for under $10.

Then, in response to the deafening public outcry, they reissued the 510 at an extravagantly inflated price. I had to give $26 for the pair. Still, it’s everything you need in a Mora, and nothing you don’t.

 

That requires some detail

This is the first new knife I've acquired since well before pandemic shut-downs.
Victorinox Florist that leaves a great first impression:



- GT

 

Added another Western L36 variant, this one a Craftsman branded knife with a beautiful sheath, approximately late 1940s.

 

Breathtaking

Thanks Gev! I need to get it into the Sheffield thread. Among other things, I was surprised at how sharp it it.
