DM,
Is that an Ulster Barlow?

Again

As of this moment this seems to be what’s in my pockets these days.

Wow those are nice! Like the handle on the Huckleberry and I have a weakness for wharncliffe blades and a great looking knife all around to.

No two ways about it, an open Whaler is a sight to behold. Glad it's getting some carry and use. I haven't been able to bring myself to that just yet...

TMH, nice CSC BF knife. Also looks to be holding up well with regular use, I'm sure you've heard CSC appears to be "back" now which is an exciting prospect in the wake of Queen's closure.

Speaking of which, here's a pair of stag Queens I toted Saturday. I left the S&M jack at home once it became clear that the carbon steel might not be as happy with the afternoon's weather (which turned out to be massive thunderstorms) as the big cigar, which has that quality Queen stainless.

Got a 43 and a 78.

This rehandled Colonial for today's Mission!!

Great carries folks, have a great Sunday!

Marbles Loveless Sport and a Ploppert stockman are with this beautiful morning, sheath made by Claude Scott, one of the best sheath makers around.

Camillus Barlow and Stockman today.

26 it is today

Hope all are having a great weekend.
I went with a brown colored theme today.

That's a sweet one!

Thanks DM11, great looking Camillus too.
Sunknife that UN-X-LD bone is fabulous. Great jigging too. And the photo.

Nice to see an S&M in the mix royal ...

A lot of chat recently about the GEC #44 Gunstocks (and rightly so) But the Queen Cutlery pattern #40 3 1/2 inch Gunstock is pretty classy too - I've been buying up a few S&M and Queen knives now that the factory is Kaput - Slip is Emu Leather Derek

You fellers must all be baseball players, as you keep knocking it out of the park. Some beauties being toted around here. I'll tote these old things today.

Every time I scroll down this page I feel like when I was 5 and the Sears Christmas catalogue showed up. Wow there is some pretty stuff here.

Thought I would change it up today and put a knife I carried for a couple years about 10 or so years ago

There it is!!!

I don't have a picture at the moment, but I have carried a Case 6318 pretty much every day since the mid 1970's Wore out 2 of 'em, lost 1 and the one I carry now will probably last out the rest of my days. Of course, I still have a few back-ups, just in case. I do have a couple of others that I use for dress use that are thinner, but usually, the 6318 is in the left pocket. Oh, and there is usually an SOG in the right pocket and a Leatherman on the belt. I mean, after all, you never know what sort of need might arise. Right? Folks that aren't knife people don't understand why anyone would spend so much money on a pocket knife. For me it is simple. I carried Queen Steel knives for several years and lost several. Finally figured out that if I spent more on the knife, I was a lot more careful about where I laid it down. Only lost that one knife since. Makes sense to me....... Have a good day, All.

Well Bruce, welcome to AAPK, take off your hat and stay a while. Don't know what might need to be done that that knife would not handle. I look forward to your future post.
