All About Pocket Knives

A bunch you've seen before and this little guy:

Nice one Hogwild. I bet the lefties here will really like your work.

Just my SRM GB-763

This GEC is cutting into whatever crosses my cutting needs path these days. I placed it in my DU Schrade Sheath on my belt.

Heading out to the power plant to apply for a plant maintenance job can't decide which set to ride with

Nice one Scott!

I've been deer hunting quite a bit lately and prefer a heavier duty pocket knife for that purpose, so I have carried this Remington (Camillus) Trapper the last two days. It is 4 1/8" closed and quite a bit bigger than the medium stockman and small jackknife's I prefer for normal EDC use. I bought it used from a pawn shop for $10, but it was in nearly new shape - good enough for the job at hand without being too valuable to lose.

Been carrying the DWO since 85' and working the Leek into the rotation as of late.

Again just my SRM GB-763.

Still carrying my two GEC's 73EL stag & Ram horn conductor
The perfect pair for me.

This beauty has been on me since bear season, it's been a great friend in the woods.
I had it on the opening day of deer season too and I used it to skin out my 8 point.

Glad to see someone else actually using a GEC. Nice patina comin on Caleb

Still stickin with these GEC's. I really like them

Gino those are great, do I see a lack of etching on that #73L?

It will be a while before you can find me without a GEC on me, right now I'm belting that same #73Scout, it's a great backup worker.
Here is the non-GEC that I have been toting.

My little Case Red Jack! Not doing much or planning to go anywhere:

Great litttle Case Dave!
Thanks Caleb, I wore that etch off the first week, LOL.

An appaloosa bone handled Case knife Dad gave me a few years before he passed on. I dont use it much but do like to carry it.

Bob

Hey gino, havent been on here for a long time ive been.. preoccupied. but i di buy a buck omnihunter folder that i now carry on hikes

I've been carrying these three knives.

I did my best tip up mod today on a gas station China knife. I made a sorry excuse for a lanyard.
And it is clipped in my shorts pocket just now.

Pic tomorrow or so.

Bob, I dig that Case. Awesome that your Dad gave it to you, it must be a fav?
Mike, that Hammer is sweet and I am a big Robeson fan too.
Hills, great to see you back and cool lookin Buck.
Dave, waitin for that pic??

Johnny, what kind of scout is that?

Love it.

Dave, it's a WWII Engineers knife.
It's made by Imperial or Camillus, I'm not 100% on who made it.
It has an excellent carbon steel blade, it took a quick edge and now it won't it go.

It is pissin' rain around here and a might cool out there. I'll take some pics later if it gets a trifle brighter!

In jeans, leaving in an hour or so down to Houston.

In RFP:


in LFP:


And Clipped:

Johnny, would love to see the other blades on the engineer's knife.

Dave, interesting tip on the leather punch on that Keencutter.


Picked up a Bucklite Max Medium (that's sort of a confusing name) 482 at Walmart last night as a part of Buck's Christmas tin. Came with a leeetle teeeny tiny lockback that my son'll get in his stocking.

This version of the 482 lacks the thumbstud on the blade and lacks the pocket clip - both huge wins for me as I dislike both. It's very light, fist the hand well and the blade shape is great. Put it to good use last night in my shop. Much more useful that the more extreme clip point of the 112 type knives. Still, the 482 is not a pretty knife. Nobody'll say, "Gee, that's a nice looking knife" when it gets deployed. It's more of a toss it in the tool box and don't cry about it type of thing. Actually, this one is going to get put in my backpacking "essentials" bag.

In any event, this is a very, very pocketable knife. Just ugly. Wonder if they could make that handle out of wood...
