'Maters n Pickles
I don't know about ya'll but I'm about ready for some homegrown 'mater sandwiches. Maybe I'll slice the first one with my #25 Watch Pocket Barlow in Marrow Bone. I like to call it my little pocket pickle.
They say you’ll never forget your first Beaver. They’re right.
A Peek into Drawer 1
Yeah, a little bit of everything. Things keep getting rotated in and out.
Watermelon Rind
Made myself one this weekend - green paper micarta, maple valley Richlite, and ivory G10 over stainless hardware and a Nitro V blade. I didn’t think it would look like a watermelon rind when I made the scales, but as I worked up the grits that’s all I could think about!
Resharpening gec 21
Used my 21 pretty heavily put some nicks in the blade so I re-sharpened it. 16.5° d gas my finishing Stone was a 2/1 micron 15,000 grit PD tools resin bonded diamond and my finishing strop was a 0.5 micron hapstone diamond emulsion on kangaroo. It didn't come out as polished as I was hoping I think there may have been a little contamination on my finishing Stone but it's still very reflective and you can see yourself in it there's just more striations than I would have liked.
Sunday Harvest
Bought this nice Damascus Laguiole knife with turquoise and camel bone yesterday and decided it would be a perfect harvesting knife.
American jack for the holiday weekend! Hope you all had a fun 4th
4th of July build
finished this one yesterday.
stainless blade and spring with
ivory paper, red & blue spacers and keystone shield
GEC 22 and Tactile Turn Bexar
I love the little GECs. Very easy to carry, still useful. The Bexar is great because of how thin it is and it is Magnacut so it won't rust in my pocket in the summer. Also, bonus CRK Mnandi. This one is lefthanded. So many knives are very right-handed. It's one reason why I appreciate slipjoints.
Synthetic Sunday
Got this old Remington Barlow to go with the Case Russlock, both in yellow delrin. I always thought it would be awesome if case did a yellow delrin Barlow in CS or now CS. Sincerely there is none I thought I’d never have something to fill that spot until now! It’s really got some great action too!
What says “independence” better than congress….
A busy weekend of grilling and chillin’, I hope you guys are all doing well!
Any info on this Magic knife
Maybe someone here can help identify this pocket knife. Only says “MAGIC” on tang stamp. It has steel construction and bolster with black wood handles. My research turned up Eagle Pencil Co. As a possible manufacturer from the late 19th to early 20th C. This is not a trick knife.
Sunday Sowbelly
Case sowbelly stockman and a couple of freeloaders
Do any of you have one of these CRKT slips? i need a slip and got a giftcard burning a hole in my pocket.
basically looking for reviews from the slipjoint community because amazon reviews aren't always reliable. they're like 15-16 bucks.
if you have something else you'd recommend instead i'm looking for something that has a pocketclip so i don't have to dig into my pocket whenever i want to grab my knife. though i am open to just getting one with a grommet so i can leave a lanyard hanging out like an "anchor" if its really the way to go.
