This one was pretty cold when I popped it out of the tube and unwrapped it on Friday. Took a bit to warm up in my pocket. Proud to be carrying another piece previously owned and meticulously maintained by an esteemed member of the knife community. The man you know as Ripster also sent along the ice pick the battle axe is leaning on. I spied it amongst a group he had posted a picture of. It caught my eye because I grew up next to the Rib River. A generous gesture for sure, I enjoy the pick almost as much as the knife, which is top notch. I commented on Sasquach's battle axe in the photography thread and Ripster just happened to have one on hand in the exact color I would have picked out of a line-up. Always good to conduct business with a friend ::handshake::

I received this one today. I have several of the newer Victorinox Alox in various colors and patterns, but haven't picked up many of the older. The person I got this one from said he purchased it around the late 1980's maybe early 90's. Victorinox Red Alox Farmer with only the Cross, no shield. Some slight wear on the handles, blades are tight and great snap. Now to decide what lanyard I want to put on it?

A small early gift from the German Santa Claus.
Honestly, I am very happy with the screwdriver set.
Is this manufacturer known in the US?

Good looking knife, and you can never go wrong with extra tools. ::tu::

I received these in today.

First, an addition to my "Old Glory" series of Camillus Knives. A CP75F Medium Boot Knife. Second, just because I am fond Of the Kutmaster 2-7/8" Pony Jacks, a Kutmaster Pony Jack with the third Coping blade.

Business flight to Florida with no knife so after a few days I picked this up at Walmart for $7. Definitely could use a sharpening but other than that, I’m happy. The knife and and a couple of America’s finest, a pair of F-16’s and an F-35 from Tyndall AFB.

Been out of touch for awhile and figure I should post a few new knives I picked up.
Here is a modern rendition of a Spanish Navaja. It's a Muela PQ.
