All About Pocket Knives

I think most of us are fans of experiencing the outdoors while fishing, hunting, camping, hiking, etc.

Seems to go hand in hand with carrying a knife.

How bout some pics of your outdoors experiences?

Me, last year with a LMB I caught fishing the Erie Canal in Palmyra, NY. (Greater Rochester area)

Here's one a couple of weeks old. I was teaching my wife how to make a compass and sundial with a sharpened stick. And here's my son and I hiking the sunken road at Antietam battlefield.

Besides knife collecting, I love skiing and ATV riding. Here's a picture of me at Snow Basin, UT, back in 2007 and a picture of me racing my Honda TRX 650 during a Grand National Cross Country race at Wisp Resort, MD, in 2006.

I'm also big into mt. biking, hunting, hiking, and recently bought a fishing reel to get set up and do some fishing this coming summer.

Great thread Triple F!

Kinda neat to see what we look like doing some of the other things we do when we're not messing around with pocket knives. I guess we might say we are reintroducing ourselves to the AAPK family. When you are retired you don't have time to do everything you want to do, but we do what we need to do, like fishing with the grandsons and deer huntin'! There is a lot of other outdoor activities, like yard work, vegetable garden and wildlfe food plots. Treefarmer

Thanks 1967 redrider!!

Here is a pic of the trophy I took last season.


I still had my pocket knives with me though, my favorite #73L did this one up easily.

Heres a pic of a Battle of Bastone Vet at 89 years old shot his first Turkey I was his guide and I never had so much fun filled with stories that went past midnight.

garddogg56, that's a fine lookin' ol' model 99 in the deer blind. What caliber is it? Several of my brothers-in-law have 99's. Never had the priviledge of owning one, yet. Treefarmer

Good eye treefarmer That 99 is in a .300 savage by far the best shooter I have ever shot it was my Grandpas and I got his Colt Police Positive in a 32-20.1928

Gutta love those old pictures kinda like the memories old knives bring back

Yeah, we have a couple of old shacks that get some good use each season.

Here is an old doe I took off the farm a couple years back.

Yea baby I knew you would show Caleb How ya doing man?Love that blind.

I'm doing just fine, how about you?

Trout season begins in April, so it's already on our minds. We are planning our trip out and it looks like we'll have a great group of guys. It's always a blast just being there, it's been a few years since we slayed them, but hopefully we'll do okay. I plan on having the camera along for the trip, so hopefully pics will follow. One of the awesome things about where we fish is knowing that GEC is making knives a few miles away.

I think I could manage a few hours of hunting time in one of your blinds too, I'm not entirely spoiled with our shacks yet.

Caleb here is the view looking out of the covered ground blind

That is something, I love seeing these pics. Looks like you have to be on watch quite a bit, any bit of movement may be that Buck. It looks like an exciting way to hunt.
Great pics, I have some of our view that I will get around to sharing.

Great pics guys!! Thanks for sharing!!

Man, I'm glad I started this thread.

garddogg.....Winter Haven? That's only an hour from me.

Uhhhhhh, no fishing this year. Funds not available to renew license.

OUCH Scott I know what you mean I've only worked a handful of days since Christmas Yea all their games are within an hour of there believe me if work was steady I would be down there NOW.Caleb I only sit in the stands early+late the rest of the day I still hunt

Well, it's a beautiful area and I think it would make for an awesome day. Have you pulled any out of there that we could see?
