You carry the coolest stuff bro!!!

Been totin' this cattle knife the past week or so...

Thanks Bro, that's what I think every time you post.

E.C. Simmons Barehead in rosewood, made by Winchester? Finally Friday!

Camillus

Thanks, I-Man, and some stellar carries from everyone!

For the penultimate day of "occasional carriers," I'm going with the Camillus 72 and the Robeson electrician's knife. It isn't very often when a knife of the 72's vintage is the newer of my carries!
The Robeson's mark side cover and liner are loose, but otherwise it's solid. I was thinking about having the pins re-done. What do y'all say; would that be worth doing?

After a long while carrying the smooth bone M&G/GEC #29, which has almost become a de facto "number 2" for me, I've been carrying a micarta #82 "slenderino max" all week. Super useful blade selection. Bought this to be a user and it has not disappointed.

Great looking carries everyone!

That is so neat that you still have that knife.
I also have one with a clip blade. They are great knives.

It has kind of turned into a "safe-queen" now-a-days but when I was a young'en I carried all around and was really proud of it hanging on my belt

Looking good Dan!!! The only thing that could make that #72 better was if'en it was a Short-Line ...

I Man, I couldn't have you hogging all the "snow shots" So, I waited outside for about 14 hours until enough snow fell to get a couple of quick pictures before the sun came out and melted it away. ... In retrospect, I think I'll stick to warm sunny desert shots and leave this snow 'bidness to ya'll up North

Ya know, they don't fit bad in a pocket too.

Wow what a pretty one. Gorgeous bones and condition.


Rrider, that's a beauty too. Great wood.

Bomba, that's getting some sweet patina and love the canvas. And the blade choices. Sweet.

DM11, another 3 beauties.

MI Dan, love that 72, gorgeous bones.

GSPTD, you're killing it. Great shots of snow. Mastered the technique. And beauty knives too. Goes great on a jaw bone.

Great page gents, love them all, great to see every one.

I've been carrying the Case CV mini muskrat this past week. I used to think of it as my Christmas knife due to the red bone, but I really live this pattern and find myself slipping it in my pocket throughout the year. I like the serpentine shape, the fact that the tang ends don't protrude up much above the handle when closed, I like the twin muskrat blades in CV that take a great edge and wear a nice honest patina, I like thay there are no half stops tonget in the way of a smooth opening pull, and she's super snappy as well.

Mike I’m with you on that muskrat
RR love them scales
Sometimes ya like a good o’l nor’easter cause I get fresh banana Bread with Skippy afta

Good ol #7 and Kershaw for today pushed with a Troy built

Thank you, Tom, GSPTOPDOG, and I-Man! I am pretty sure my 72 is Delrin (it looks smooth under the highest power magnification I have available), and if I'm right, it's some of the best Delrin you'll find.

As usual, some excellent carries from everyone!

For the last entry in my week of "occasional carriers," I'm bringing out a real favorite.
Of course, an occasional carrier isn't always one that sees limited use because of its age or scarcity. Some occasional carriers have to stay at home because carrying them in the city is begging for trouble.
It's been fun getting these out (and giving them a little bit of maintenance)!

Cleaning up the yard again.
