Stepping out today, fellas. ::paranoid::
Glennbad reworked this frontier lockback for me, from an ugly black boxed folder to a woody sexpot! :shock: :lol:
The wood is curly Tazmanian blackwood, and those square lines are gone, instead, svelte!
Before:

After:

Gonna carry it a while and try a longer locking folder for a while.

Gino -- Thanks bud. I appreciate it.


Thomas -- It never ceases to amaze me what a good knife mechanic can do to transform a plain Jane everyday knife into a knockout. Enjoy.

Caleb, glad to hear that job is providing security. Work is a funny thing, as in odd funny. My hiking partner is an Old Testament scholar. He reminds me that our struggles with work are in our oldest story (e.g. "by the sweat of your brow...").

Today's carry.... Buck 112. Question I can't answer. Why is it that I prefer drop points but like this knife so much? Weird.

Toe jammer,

That wharncliffe blade is one of my favorites, on my list of things to get from Case in that pattern! How does it carry, and the overall length? I have one posted, a schatt whittler a few pages back, its one of my favorite knives.

Thats good Charlie - I like seeing "working man" knives in use. I've been alternating between a Buck 303 and the little 3" Kabar jackknife I found in a pawn & gun last week. OH

It's a tad on the heavy side, due to the warncliffe blades thickness, but the finish is so smooth you' don't even feel it in your pocket really.

Neat knife Stan. Is that a custom or is it a production knife? Tell us a little about it.

Great lookin knife Stan ;)
I am still carrying my GEC Outlaw and I am just really liking this knife, I liked my BF with the opener a lot also but I never really loved the main blade (always been partial to clip blades) but this Outlaw has the perfect combo of blades and the perfect extra touches I look for in a knife down to the bone color.


Sorry, I had to show it one last time ;)

Gino, funny how prefs go. I've never warmed up to clips on slippies and strongly want a cap lifter. That Outlaw is nice but nothing compared to the BF knife.

Man I wish GEC would put that into production so the rest of us could get in on that one.

EDITED TO ADD: I should mention that the Leatherman Micra in my LFP is so danged useful and so small, it's really freed me to carry single bladed knives in my RFP. Very hard to see a path back to carrying a multi blade knife of any sort at this point. The BF knife is really the only contender. Sort of like an MG. I'm glad friends have them.
