But I like it for a EDC you don't even know it is in your pocket. One thing I learned a long time ago don't use it to pry out a fence staple. The tip will break. IMG_2836.JPG

Great Bucks!

A close 2nd aint bad.

The Case 5318 will go in the pocket.
The Franklin Mint GTO will not.

Going minimalist today with a 2 3/4'' stockman.

Fantastic lking knives everyone.

Along with my normally carried cutlery, I'm carrying these two items today.
I'm packing the heat because I'm going to do some yard work and I might run
into some vicious ants.

Very cool GTO knife Steve! Of course that case is also a real beauty!

Nice knife Paul! I like your large Schrade knifes but these smaller ones are also very fine looking pieces of cutlery!

Thank you, Tom

Next 30 days this will be the only pocketknife I'm carrying. I'm trying to do it exactly the way my Great-Granddad did for a Nessmuk challenge on another forum. SAKs and MTs are mostly backup from now on out. Not a primary carry.

Cattaraugus 21349 Barehead Jack. I was gifted this knife by a member here two years ago. I was going through my older folders, and realized how so many had a lot of wobble. This was basically the only larger pre-1950 one I own without any wobble at all. Cattaragus really knew how to build a knife! In addition, I think condition, condition, condition needs to be made a bigger priority in my buying--not price, price, price.

Packing these two today

I've had this one for bit but don't think I've shown it. It had some rust issues as purchased so I put my edge on it and today it went with me on a short 5 mile bike ride.

That's a pretty one, Trace.

This Case went to church with me today.
Disregard what the packing says. That's a '67 behind the "glass." After church, my new Cabela's purchase was dropped into the pocket.

Lotta great looking knives everybody!

Steve, Nice Case! When I was a junior high boy the 67 GTO was my dream car - my aunt (4 years older than me) dated a boy who drove one - I thought he was COOL! OH
