I really love the Doctor's knife.

Thankyou doglegg. I have to be careful in carrying it. It is very light and easy (for Me) to lose sight of.

Nice one for Monday, QS.

Totin' a Robeson 612346 folding Lockback Hunter today. It's seen some use but there's plenty of use left. 5 1/4" closed, around 9 1/2" open.

Not as nice as these knives above lol but been decorating so carry the kobalt, actually a good knife as a beater/work knife

Thanks redrider. I'm liking your Robeson Coke Bottle.

Nice!

Since VA will be relaxing its auto laws in July, I plan to purchase a decent one then. Possibly earlier as some dealers shipped here long before that was relaxed and our local law enforcement did not mind--as people sold them at flea markets here for ages.

I'm torn between a heavy-duty workhorse and a small/compact knife. The Wharncliffe Microswitch is one of the contenders, and I think a leader, as it falls in at just under 3 3/4" closed, which is "just about right" for all-around carry and use. However, they also make a manual (flipper tab) version called the MicroFlip; and both are around the same price and use quite similar components (the MicroFlip is also a button lock, and features a safety as well). It's not like the ton of autos that are auto-only in design.

Coincidentally, I’ve been thinking about adding a Wharncliffe Microswitch to my collection. I have the Drop Point and the 2.5” California legal Models.

A Wharny Microswitch is pretty high on my list. Looking at either black or auquamarine. I like my grey model but the black is really sweet. I’ve never seen an aquamarine in person so I’m not sure about that one.

Nice! I have a multitool that's just about as good as a Leatherman Juice from them. I finally found a nice used one (in a lot with better tools); but Lowe's replaced it with a cheaper model that is MUCH worse.

And this doesn't count the three Kobalt utility knives/box cutters I've used hard and they're still going strong. Kobalt also accounted for most of my starter tools.

Of all the new models CRKT came out with this year, that one attracted my attention the most. Just like a Bullet Trapper, but just the right size and far lighter.

My thoughts exactly, a very lightweight, slim, version of the Remington Baby Bullet trapper. Wonderful across the room snap.

Great looking knife, reminds me of a Lanny's clip trapper. Great micarta. I looked for one on feebay and no dice, must be hard to find or just newish release that hasn't made it there yet? Sweet knife anyway.

Redrider, I love the “experienced” looking knives. They have stories to tell

I’m going cheap and cheerful this week:
