Re: Knife Photography
I went to an Air show and took a few pictures. I could not bring a knife into the Show area, so the knife pictures had to be out in the parking lot.
Which ends up being another story...
... I usually have 3 to 5 knives on me at any given time and ALWAYS at least one... So, security to enter the enclosed area of the show is super tight, metal detectors, MPs/armed guards, MP police dogs etc...etc... and parking is far, far away...
So, I strip off all knives/multi-tools "other sharp objects" toe nail clippers, scissors, nail files, paint scrapers, and so on and so forth.
Then,
I start the walk of about 1/2 mile
or so from the parking lot area (a giant open field) I get right up to the entrance gate...
and I pat myself down out of habit before going thru security and there is a big 'ol tactical folder, with a big fat blade in my pocket
...
...
So, I have to walk all the way back to my car and secure the knife and head back again. I lost maybe over 1/2 an hour of the show ...
I guess you really CAN have TOO many knives...

Re: Knife Photography
Thanks, appreciate the compliments. Thanks again for the sweet bones.
Incredible piece. You're looking more like the heritage museum of fine vintage Case cutlery lately.
Wow that's some great shots GSPTD. Especially love the Zero. Bravo for getting some great shots.GSPTOPDOG wrote: ↑Wed Apr 12, 2023 10:02 pm I went to an Air show and took a few pictures. I could not bring a knife into the Show area, so the knife pictures had to be out in the parking lot.

Re: Knife Photography
This bow trapper pattern has become one of my all time favorites. It helps ease my sellers remorse with my sowbellies, my inability to find a saddlehorn I liked and the expense of a Fontenille-Pataud capuchadou.
