Re: WHAT ARE YOU CARRYIN RIGHT NOW? WHAT IS YOUR FAV EDC?
I was outside all day today. Lot's of chores to do and I always like to have some various and sundry options on the belt.... 
A Spyderco in the front pocket, a Pal scout knife in the 5th pocket, a Ka-bar dagger and Leatherman on the hip and a 'Lill Kershaw in the side pocket (great for cutting up boxes!)

Agreed. My current carriers will rotate out soon, as they're taking a little road trip.

Old Schrade Cut Co bare head just came in, and into the pocket it went. With an old Pal Cut Co Stockman had for years. Vintage day.

I don't know how I missed this one. Beautiful knife!FRJ wrote: ↑Sun May 02, 2021 4:10 pm I'm tolerating weak springs in order to carry this nice little gunstock from L L H, Cleavland. 3 inches closed.
It has a nice description in Goin's about the owners originating in Sheffield.
Apparently it is a hardware brand starting in 1898.
Lockwood-Luetkemeyer-Henry Company.
I have no idea who made it.

Re: WHAT ARE YOU CARRYIN RIGHT NOW? WHAT IS YOUR FAV EDC?
Today a Kershaw USA Leek, a Schrade 8OT Old Timer and a Camillus S702 Sailor's Rope Knife with Can Opener. Anyone have an idea as to when the 8OT Old Timer was made?

Re: WHAT ARE YOU CARRYIN RIGHT NOW? WHAT IS YOUR FAV EDC?
I am gonna go out on a limb and say that 8OT is one of the earlier ones--'60s or early '70s. I know they switched tang stamps (and dropped that sexy matchstrike pull) when they moved to Ellenville in '73.
I normally do NOT do cheap imports, but I decided to try a Kabar 3189 as a work beater; as another forum I'm on is doing a Buck 110 clone challenge. Decent, but for a cheap user, I'm sticking to my Rough Rider (Ryder) Work Knife. They make it in carbon steel now, so I may try that. The Kabar is based on the old USA 1189; but despite the FRN handles, the Buck 110LT is quite a bit better. The Kabar has uneven G-10 handles, slight wobble on the blade, and a tip-down clip. The 110LT has the proper tip-up clip; and is the same cost. AND made in Idaho, not China.

Re: WHAT ARE YOU CARRYIN RIGHT NOW? WHAT IS YOUR FAV EDC?
Especially with metal handles. I have a couple of under $20 beater multitools that have thick steel slabs that don't get more than scratched when you use them as a hammer.GSPTOPDOG wrote: ↑Tue May 04, 2021 2:18 amThanks!cody6268 wrote: ↑Tue May 04, 2021 1:29 am I normally do NOT do cheap imports, but.... the Buck 110LT is quite a bit better.

KIMG4211_01_BURST1004211_COVER.JPGI was thinking -'60s or early '70s with the older looking tang stamp. I have had good luck beating the hell (literally with a hammer
) out of my Ganzo Firebird made by the Chi-Coms it is a great "Beater".

These two made their way into my pockets last night. The color looks so much better in sunlight. Unfortunately, some cloud cover rolled in before the photo was taken...
