Thanks doglegg. Yep, newly made from a hackberry tree as a gift for my youngest daughters boyfriend.

I'm surprised from a hackberry tree. I always thought of them as almost a weed tree. Usually have rotten centers when they get older, wood hard to split for fire wood. Not always a pleasant smell when burning. Birds do like their berries. As a kid I liked to chew their bark. Wow, I learned something. A hackberry! Thanks.

Chris that top one sure has a 'warm' comfortable handle.

Totin’ this one today.

This Pacific Schrade has become a favorite: lightweight, very sharp blade, and exceptionally smooth and fast opening. By raising the thumb stud above the spine the force required to open is very little. It takes considerably less effort than a Spyderco for example, and they don't require much at all. Very smooth and quick.

Beautiful knife, Tony, & photo. I can't help but ask what the handle material is.

A favorite Canoe. I have no idea when it was made but the Queen lacks the DFC stamp so it's probably pre-2012, at least. I just have no idea what kind of wood it has.

Smooth Autumn Gold

For the last few days I’ve been toting this new to me Solingen Boker Jumbo Congress (5474). It come to me with stained but never sharpened blades. Not a beauty contest winner, but not bad for $30.99.

Colonel, you got a bargain, in my opinion. That's the way I like 'em.

Thank You Mr 'legg. It's actually quite an appealing orange .....

Only wish my photo skills did both of them justice.


Wade, I sure like that congress. Have not see many that don't repeat 2 blades.
That'n probably be too big for me though ....

Thanks. It had Christmas tree celluloid that was offgassing. Replaced the scales with zebrawood.

A true work knife wouldn't win a beauty contest, but they don't need to

I like that combo of a big single blade (back pocket), and small stockman (watch pocket), Paul.

Here are the two I chose today, GEC moose in osage and a Boker magnum scout in ebony.

Possum

Road trip of a few days coming up - moving furniture to my daughters house in the mountains - Case 3318 will be my EDC. OH

Three of my favorite knives on one page!

Sun, that moose is real nice!

DM11, that possum skinner is one of the most interesting new patterns I’ve seen! Excellent!

OH, the 3318 is a classic! I have one myself. It’s not hard to figure out at all why it’s one of the most popular CASE patters. And I have always loved that CASE yellow.

Great looking "old yeller" Bruce.


Im still enjoying this 66.

A favorite Canoe. Don't know when it was made but mid-1980s is my best guess. The toothpick would be in my favorite category if it had CV instead of SS.
