I used my Buck tool and Boker Whaler today.

-that's a long-cherished Boker, and my favorite brand at that
...and I'm an advertising knife fan in the bargain.

-any combo that includes that Schrade is a winner, and beyond doubt with a wharnecliffe.

Nice knives fells! Still this for me

Yesterday was a Leatherman and a Case Peanut 3220.
Tonight will be back to my current favorite gec/colonial combo.... [/color]

Still with these two. Creature of habit I guess.

Creature of habit or is it just plain good taste? Cutty, you just can't go wrong with that pair.

Thanks Jerry.

Can't quit this.

Thanks Perry, the #78 American Jack is my all time favorite GEC as of right now.

Thanx Sandy I do love the steel in there blades.Todays carry.

Today was the first day that the signs were right for planting the salad part of my garden (I only have about 3000sqft or so in Garden). And since tomorrow is my double carpal tunnel surgery it was now or never. I used this ol loom fixer to cut open the seed packages (leaf lettuce, spinach, kale, turnip greens, mustard greens, English peas, and snap peas. )

I can understand that having held a few, it was a toss up between that and the newer Radio Jacks, so i went with the RJ. I'll see when it arrives this week if I made the right decision.

BORED today so I played with these on the metric boat

Nice carries guys!

Home from an international trip where I carried a small pen CASE 6233 for about 10 days straight.

Slip these 2 into my pocket when I got home yesterday. Will carry these again today.

Very nice!

I'm starting a job where I'll have to travel occasionally. I haven't been on a plane since before 911. Are you allowed to carry a knife like the pen or do you have to check it? Also what if I purchase a knife when I'm out and about? Can I check it and it will be fine?

dropped in the pocket this AM-

No knives in carry on of course. Not allowed but you are welcome to try, if found, you have to go back to the car and drop it off or surrender it.

Knives in checked luggage are perfectly legal. No need to declare it either. However, do not put it or antything of value in the exterior pocket of your luggage, first place a dishonest baggage handler will look. I wrap mine in paper towels and put in a plastic bag in with my toiletries zipped in main compartment. Never had a problem. Plastic bag is in case your shaving cream explodes during flight.

Do not take a knife that you will be heartbroken if you get it ripped off. Unless your job really requires it, don't bring a huge tatical or auto. I usually carry a sub 3 inch pen and do not just whip it out in public for the hell of it.

Check the local laws where you go also. I carried that pen in Argentina for 10 days with no issue. But, I did not go to the park across from the hotel and pull it and cut everything in sight for fun either. Common sense applies...

Merry you done did it again! I don't usually like most stag, but that 5375 is plum beautiful!

Still carrying these 2.
I touched up the O. Barnette with my ceramic stone and it took on a very sharp edge.

Walk in the Nevada desert this morning at sunrise with the dogs. Carried these and for the rest of the day...

Jerry, thanks for bringing this up so I don't have to search for it.

Swapped back to a Camillus #72 today. The plan is to just stick with this knife.

Hey JerryD,

If you are referring to me, sorry but I am not following you. Nice carry by the way!!!

JerryD &Jerry BEAUTIFUL my Western whittler is quite like that 72 and she's seeing a lot of pocket time.
