Nice Lil' Bandit Fingers! Very colorful and the dream catcher is a nice touch.

Re: Knife Photography
Great photo, TopDog! I like that wood for the background! What’s the brand of that knife? Nice handles!

Re: Knife Photography
Lots of character in that gnarly wood; makes a great background for the worn smooth stag handle. Nicely presented texture contrast, T-Dog

Re: Knife Photography
I hear the Bradshaws calling to me all the time. I see Crown King, the Oro Belle, and Fort Misery in my dreams many nights. I'll get back there sooner or later.GSPTOPDOG wrote: ↑Fri Apr 03, 2026 11:50 pmI reckon' them 'Ol white Mountains are calling out to me....Sasquach wrote: ↑Wed Apr 01, 2026 5:17 pmGo for some elevation up north where it a bit cooler in the pines.GSPTOPDOG wrote: ↑Tue Mar 31, 2026 9:03 pm

Re: Knife Photography
This picture actually isn't the greatest, but I'm posting it any way because the danger I went through to get the photo is in line with the spirit of the thread, even if the quality is not. You see, I was up on my roof cleaning out my gutters when I decided the apex of my roof would make for a great knife picture. Im getting a new roof in two weeks, these current singles are shedding single dust like crazy. Makes them hazardous to walk on. Not the prettiest knife either but I wouldn't trade ol trusty here for a whole pile of pretty new Case cutlery.
That's my Etsy store where I sell old knives and sometimes handmade knife accessories to support my knife habbit. Thanks for looking my friend.

Proving once again that context is everything. A picture may be worth a thousand words, but a little narrative goes a long wayThatWeirdKnifeGuy wrote: ↑Mon Apr 06, 2026 12:53 pm This picture actually isn't the greatest...Not the prettiest knife either
Zach, your description of the setting and circumstance actually gives life and depth to what might otherwise be a relatively mundane picture of an uninteresting knife and kept me looking at it longer than I surely would have without the backstory. Your dedication and willingness to risk life and limb to try and capture an interesting photo are commendable
BTW FWIW--had you fallen off the roof and broken your neck in pursuit of the perfect shot, at least you can take a measure of comfort in knowing that your photo would have survived to tell the tale and serve as a lasting testament to your artistic commitment

I took a similar series of pictures with my whittler collection from the top of my house.

Were you drinking that stuff or using it for chainsaw fuel? That'll certainly take the paint off your tonsils!
