Thanks DM11. I must say the cattle knife is fabulous too. Barlow ain't bad either. Love old bones.
Nothing new here.

Usually I can click on your photo and enlarge, but nothing doing on this one, don't know why, do you? And that pic is so much smaller than usual I can't see it as well anyway so I really wanted to zoom in. Forget about it. Bummer. So how does it know if we view it when we can't click on it? Mysteries of the AAPk universe I guess.

There is a size threshold for uploads in the forum software below which it will just display the full size image inline in a post instead of shrinking it to a clickable thumbnail. You can't click to get a larger copy of QS's pic but you can still zoom in using the browser controls.

The software counts image views by unique page views. It assumes if you open the page you have viewed the pic because, technically, you have by loading the full image file.

Just one tote so far today on account of Indycar and basketball shorts, but a rainy day at the Indy qualifiers might convince me to get up and venture outside into the 90 degree heat...

If you're at a computer, just hold down the ctrl key and press + sign. Every time you press, it will enlarge what is on the screen. Hold ctrl key and tap the - sign to shrink.

Brilliant! Thanks a bunch for that tip. I couldn't figure out why some woon't let you enlarge by clicking on them. Very helpful tip to get around it, thanks again.

Bomba congrats on the new aqua bone. Love the color on that. Beautiful.

Steve that is great info. Thanks so much.

Iman, the photo is from an ad for Kizer when they first became known some years ago.

......wonder if that makes the lil' Case a prince .... ?

That big Queen is very nice.

I had the 43 with me while I was cutting down a tree. Had to pause for a pic.

Back to work and back to the craftsman whittler.

Lots of fine knives being shown by all, I love seeing the pics you all share here.

I've been on the lookout for a nice equal end bone handled cattle knife within my budget for a few months now with no luck. Settled for this nice 3-1/2" Imperial USA serpentine. Acquired cheaply on the big auction site in the meantime while still looking. Some blade wear but still a good pick up in my mind. Pairing it with the GEC #72 LB for the remainder of the day.

Great carries all! Always interesting to see the range of diverse and functional carries.

Been a while since I carried these but are a couple of my favorites. Just got a stone and oil job. Pocketed now.

CASE 1970' 10 dot 5375
CASE 1976' 5111-1/2 LSSP with file work done by my friend/ member Wayne. I also removed blade etch with elbow grease.

Love the stag.

Jerry

That certainly is some great looking stag Jerry and the file work is pretty as well.

Some GEC micrata this rainy Monday.
