You've been holding out on me with that Robeson., big-H! Camillus build? I was fortunate enough to be gifted an old 2-piece original half-dozen box when I bought a red Delrin daddy Barlow built on the ol' reliable Camillus #9 frame from Charlie the Robeson God and one day I'm going to collect enough to fill it.

I got behind. Ivoryman, that S&M whittler is one good-looking knife & you caught the light real well on those scales.

Well you don't want this one it's wore slap out.

Upon zooming in to the original pic I can see the 4th handle pin and I see it's not Camillus after all. Looks a real-time Robeson after all. I've got just one daddy Barlow, black synthetic. Betcha it's wore slappier than yours.

Think I'll tote this 1940 - 1964 CASE XX 22055 today.

This Schrade is a handful.

Love that cigar jack, Scott. We'll make a collector of you yet!

Stainless and synthetic on a sweaty Tuesday that will hopefully complete the hassle of moving.

Thanks, and agreed. Had several made 2010 or earlier that are great knives. I also bought about 6 new in the last 3-4 years and they all went back. Every one of them. That was it for me. Later when Queen closed immediately my thoughts went to why.

Lloyd's fabulous. Dang.

GEC today as most

I feel like a little kung pao chicken today.

This trapper from ABS M.S. Jon Christensen is with me this morning, thin and well made knife
Have a great day folks

Excellent knives all around fellas. I enjoy coming here to take a look at the variety of knives, thanks for posting the pics.
Kris whats the length of your knife? Wood, ebony scales? Looks like a fine back pocket carry.

I got a couple wood handled ones in my pockets today.
A S&M rosewood single spear blade in the back pocket, and a Winchester sleeveboard pen I just acquired from Gino this week in the watch pocket.
On a side note the fall colors here around me are outstanding this year, hope you guys are experiencing and enjoying the same wherever you are.

Thanks Greg, nice carries today. Blade is 3.5 in from tip to bolster and the wood is carbon dated bog oak from the Ukraine, 4600 years old, from Mark at The Burl Source. Keeps upright in my front left pocket, generally have a fixed blade on my right side.

Wow ancient bog oak, now that is cool, and they are handsome looking scales as well. Blade certainly isn't shabby either.
