All About Pocket Knives

My EDC for today. I am a little worried that the dog is not quite comfortable enough... as we make the rounds... I need to find a pillow for his head...

That dog looks pretty spoiled to me.

Thank you all. I do appreciate you.
I'd had the Hen & Rooster a while before I realized it had been buffed. Someone did a pretty good job buffing it & I didn't do such a good job of scrutinizing it. Anyway, I feel okay carrying it. Actually I feel great carrying it. It's as smooth opening & folding as any knife I have, blades are tight & the handles are very well matched. If it was any nicer I wouldn't feel right carrying it.

I was thinking the same thing. Spoiled or has a bad hangover.

The dog is spoiled... and I'm the one with the bad hangover

Beautiful Knives Gentlemen!

Carrying a Swell Center Catt jack today. Ebony, swedged, half-stops, pretty full blades but no visible pattern number. This knife has a distinct classic look in my opinion.

Oh Yea!

For Friday Eve I'm carrying a Keen Kutter Whittler, pattern 3071, half-stops on the pen and coping blades, pinned Federal shield, wedged springs with the main spear riding on both and some pretty sweet old jigged bone scales. Didn't get a chance to look in Sellen's book to see the year it was made to possibly guess who the maker was. It's helping me around the office with Mandarin and box opening chores.

Very nice! Great bone on that one.

Sweet Whittler!

The Catt Swell Center Jack is rather nice also!

rr, that whittler is fabulous. I'd be afraid to carry it.

David you always carry sweet knives.

My mistake, Mel Pardue not Joe.



That's for the KK Whittler comments, gents.
