That's a photog gem, great angle, depth, view. Cool pic of a cool knife.

On a more mundane level, the wheelbarrow came in handy for more than one thing.

Today I have a well used schrade walden 890.

These two today, Joel Chamblin lockback whittler in my pocket, and a scapel from Phillip Patton, castrating later.

A lot of neat knives folks. I really like your pocketful of GECs David & the stag on your pair of Cases Jerry.

Kris...that stag on the whittler is awesome!

Thanks Geo! I really like your carries there also. Like the 32 alot. Great pattern. Had one (a 70' 6232 Jack) in my EDCs but gave to my nephew. May have to pull another from collection to EDC pile.

Carry in good health.

Jerry, that 5375 is ridiculous. Had to take half a beat to catch my breath after you sprang it on us.

Last 2 days for me. My Ratcliffe rode the cavernous watch pocket in my new Wranglers because it consumes any knife under 3 1/4" long. The 43 has joined a select few "always in consideration" knives because of its versatility alone. The Boker is just a neat, rugged, fun knife that parts cardboard like microwaved butter.

Carried me Case pocketworn again while bouncing around for 5 hours in the tractor cultivating.
Imperials bouncing around harrowing yesterday stonepicking.
Same story bouncing around the last few days helping dad get the barley in.
She is ...DRY...! Top inch of soil powder. Below that starting to feel it. I sure feel bad for the ranchers, pasture burning up. And no rain in the forecast for the next good while. All of Saskatchewan is under drought watch. Burning bans on all over Manitoba also.
Tough stuff but keep on keeping on.

Thanks for the compliment Tony!

You look like you have all bases covered with those carries. Really like that big smooth bone single blade Jack. I personally love a big Jack. Also, looks like one heck of a honestly earned patina on that knife.

Hope life finds you well. Jerry

That scalpel is beautiful. Who says utility has to be boring!
Mind you, the pigs may not agree...

Thanks, much appreciated. I picked it out and Joel did a great job on a tough build.

Thanks Ann, it is definitely my least favorite job.

Frozen rain at the house and snowing up at the barn, these two are with me today,

Met Cut Co. N.Y.

Camillus and Case today.

T . Been carrying this modded trapper a bunch lately ...

Very cool trapper, John. I see that nail nick you fashioned. I wonder if you could use that technique to start adding Wharnies to full-size trappers. Case doesn't run many 54Ws and frankly I'm lousy with big Case trappers I would carry if there were like 14 more days in a week - but a Wharnie option might bump it way up the list.

A couple knives I haven't toted much today, plus a tiny Boker 8788 Scott fished out of an estate sale or swap meet somewhere up Gulf Coast way clad in what Sanders Knives says is rosewood, judging by an old store listing.

Man, you fellas are stylin' and profilin'!!!!!!!!

Been carrying this 482 and lovin' it!!

Carried me Case red pocketworn again today while bouncing around harrowing stubble for dad.
These really grow on ya.
Great carries again guys

geocash, I'm loving the chunky look of your S&M.
