Great thread @Bankwalker . I carry one every day. Have two that I switch out every so often, and some that I have as collector knifes. I've sold quit a few vintage ones on eBay. I'm not big into the collecting thing, but I have studied enough to keep my eye out for certain ones.
I to agree, this is a great thread for this time of year. Can't count the number of knives I've owned through the years, but my prized Case that I got from my Dad is now with with my oldest son in Afghanistan. He'll be home in a few months and and of course it will be his to hand down one day.
Pretty much what I have left. I sold 6 Coke novelty advertising pocket knifes a few weeks ago.
The top right is my current everyday carry....
The wife and I went to Switzerland in 2010 or so. I brought back the new legit version for my nephew and it was a blackish color. The old school red we all knew as kids wasnt available amy more. All of the accessories but more “beafcake”
6.5254, which the internet tells me is bone stag trapper 4” closed. Thanks for the tip!
@loxahatcheedawg very pretty group of knives. How did you get in to K.R. Johnson knives? Never heard of them before now but those are gorgeous.
@PlayHurt Love the reference to “watch pocket of my levi’s”.
That is truly “old school”. I wonder where the cutoff age is for people who know the purpose for which that little slit was actually intended?
Nice birdshot knife. I’d like to have one of those. Any idea of the age?
I have a sxs shotgun passion and shot quail yesterday. I dont consider my knife collection to actually be a “collection”. SxS shotguns, different story.
Twice since I’ve moved to Australia, I’ve used my Case Sodbuster to cut an apple in public, only to be greeted with shrieks, queries about the “need” for knives (seriously?), and a threat to call the police. Yep, Aussies are a real tough bunch. Rugged as the landscape itself. Legendary, even.
Some what young but as you appreciated the reference
I say that all the time! As a teacher, I say it to other teachers...therefore I usually say TWSS. They get it.
Sounds like a good intro for a new Shotgun Discussion. SXS, OU, Auto or Pump?
After that we can get into Fly Fishing rods / reels, Pickup Trucks, Fishin Boats, favorite Camps, Hunts, Hikes, Chain Saws, Power Tools, and before you know it we'll be ready for G-Day.
I sometimes carry a pocket knife, but since I fly often, I have to remember to not have it with me at the airport. I also carry a Glock 9mm or a Ruger 9mm. My go-to knife for most outdoor things is my K-Bar. It’s a longer single blade knife, so it’s not something I want to carry in my pocket next to my boys.
I carry a Glock 43, Kershaw Cryo II and a 100 Lumen Nightstick everyday.
When I'm back in the ATL the Glock 19, rides high in the King Ranch saddle. For a good utility knife I often use an old Case Muskrat I picked up in West TX many decades ago.
No use for stacked barrels. I have my share of autos, too. My first gun was an LC Smith 20ga given by my father at 12 years old for Christmas. I had no clue what he had given me at the time.
What a coincidence, my first was an old LC Smith 16. Also didn't have a clue and it was a Premier model.
daddy always told me that if I had my jeans on that I should have my knife in my pocket. I really like Zac Browns knife line called Southern Grind. Chris Reeves, Wilson Combat, Bench Made, Spider Co., etc are all great knives. The Southern Grind are some of my new favorites
I don't have an exact age. It's referred to as a "vintage" Kershaw Bird Hunter and the unique feature is the field dress hook. It also has the rosewood shell. Most of the ones today are plastic shells and the majority of the rosewoods have the blade and a file. The "gut" hook is what I like about it.
And speaking of shotguns, I've shot many, but the first and only one I've ever owned is an early 80's Remington 1100 model. Big, long, heavy and shoots like silk. Love it.....
every day. knife, slim front pocket wallet, phone, vehicle key. feels weird not having those on me
