All About Pocket Knives

Nice two for Tuesday, bighomer.


Totin' a #20 today.

Just a couple yellow handled plastics today!! The soddie gets alot of use. Hard use and stands up well!!

I brought these two fine pieces of craftsmanship out with me today. I’m a huge Case knife collector, and have many Case knives. As for automatics, I only have this Frank Beltrame, my childhood Rizzuto and a Latama picklock. This Frank B. happened to be on my dresser this morning, so I said what the hell, I always have at least two knives on my person daily anyways.aha I’m in the market for a vintage Manila Balisong, but they’re so hard to find.

I bought this one from AAPK, it's stamped Philippines and the seller said it was WWII era. It's so old it doesn't swing right, but that's ok.

I have several balisongs but only one that is from the Philippines. Bought it from a Philipp ino friend who bought it in Batangas Philippines
. He told me that it was hand forged from ball bearings and that it would easily pierce a quarter. I put a quarter on a piece of wood and stabbed it. Went through the quarter like a hot knife through butter. Best $25 I ever spent. I stocked up on Bandaids and got countless cuts until I was proficient in swinging it. Works great !

Here you go, Kim-



I sub her channel, I have a couple balisongs and a trainer.

Knice knife Red - do you eat tangerines every single day? What will you carry when they go out of season? No offense intended, just curious.

We find them year round, and they're Mandarins. A Mandarin a day keeps the Covid at bay.

Cool carry! I have a few Civivi's, quality EDCs.

Nice duo!

Going with my trusted 72 today.

I like it!

My husband and son both carry a Ridge wallet too, but I'm the only one who carries a coin purse....lol.

Ha! Thank you.

I just started carrying the Ridge wallet about 3 months ago but I’ve carried a coin purse for 45 years or so. They don’t last long and I’ve probably been through about 50 of them. I wouldn’t know how to act without one.

Unlike like many men, I don’t mind it being called a purse. I call it a coin purse myself on the rare occasions that I mention it. It’s a handy little bugger.
