Knife Photography

Zeus, the "real" GSP Top Dog jump up on my "work-space..."

I had something similar happen while shooting a video. One of the cats came in to see what I was doing, and almost pawed a knife off the backdrop!

Zeus is a cool dog, and I finally understand the significance of your user name. Interesting Schrade, too; I can't say it's one I've seen before.

Nothing like eating an apple with a Case Greenbone 6366.

Its good to see a scrimshaw knife being used, i.e. getting out and about in the woods.

Great Photo! That leather sheath pops on that black background and your knives look great too! Just a great photo in my book!!

[Ivoryman]

Thanks! Here is what happened today when I went to take some AAPK pictures this morning; Zeus, wants to play fetch while I am trying to take a classic EDC picture and he bumps my hand with his head as I trying to take the perfect picture So I have to throw the toy and take a photo in about 12 seconds before he is back wanting me to throw the toy for him

That Schrade in the photo was one of the last models they produced in the US...I think...it is very lightweight and great for hiking.

Thanks. Black background spot meter on the blade and pretty much everything pops.

I bought it used a few years ago. It's a very small knife but built solid. A very handy little fixed blade with a deep choil so you can choke up on it for maximum control, good carving tool. Whoever used it took good care of it and continuing to use it and take good care of it seemed like the thing to do.

LJ, You have a wonderful eye for knives. What a fine selection. Among the other beauties, those Dr's Knives are superb.

[Sasquach]

That's quite a line up LJ!

[Quick Steel]

Squatch, Sorry to be a pest but could you provide some info on your Bowie. Bowies have long been an interest and I like the lines of yours. Thanks.

[KLJ77]

Thanks Garry & Charlie.

Other than the Case Teardrop and Sunflower, I was fortunate to arrive at that particular estate sale before the knives drew anyone else's attention, so I got my pick. These are, I suspect, older models done by Frost. Nevertheless, they are attractive, well built and solid knives.

Charlie...that is a marvelous Bowie and the perfect sheath for it.

Thanks LJ.

It's really more like a short sword at 17 3/4" OAL. It's a Cold Steel replica of an 1849 US Army Rifleman's Knife. Below is a museum photo of an original minus the frog.

Sorry QS, I had mean to include you in my previous post with the requested info but got in a hurry because I had biscuits in the oven and sausage gravy on the stove. Didn't want to burn either and my stomach thought my throat had been cut! Having now satisfied my hunger (threw in some scrambled eggs for good measure) I returned to discover my omission. My apologies.

[Quick Steel]

Completely understandable Charlie. Only now you have made me quite hungry. Sounds like a great meal.
