Re: Knife Photography
Indeed it is, Diglegg. This one is manufactured by Linder of Solingen Germany and they call it the Pathfinder. There are several cutlers who offer this pattern. The Fleur-de-lis is the international symbol of Scouting I believe.

Re: Knife Photography
Nice Camillus GSP. 
If you feel that the light of day is too bright, shoot in the shade. Depending on where you are shade might be in short supply. Sometimes when I'm shooting outdoors I stand so that my shadow falls across the knife so the light in the photo isn't too intense. It also helps keep the sun reflecting from the blade and bolsters ruining your shot.

Re: Knife Photography
I ordered a new addition to my Ol' Yeller section and it arrived just as we were heading out for our daily walk so I had to initiate it into the EDC rotation.
It's first walk...

Totally striking covers on your Trapper Squatch. Impossible to pass that one by.

Re: Knife Photography
Thank you gentlemen, all three of you! 
The trapper is a Frost (Japan) and I believe it's from the '80s. The handles are laminated like paka-wood but the layers are made of a synthetic material, possibly Delrin. or something similar.

Re: Knife Photography
Interesting shot Ivoryman. Leaves me unable to positively ID the knives and wondering about the sign.

Re: Knife Photography
Squach, the knives are a Case whittler and GEC half congress. The sign is on a local trail with signs like this telling where the next bus stops etc. are.
