That is an awesome piece John. Love it!! I'm hauling around my Muscrat today with burnt salmon covers.1967redrider wrote: ↑Fri Sep 05, 2025 12:58 pm Awesome carries, QS, David, gard and bighomer. Incidentally, I was given the Chinese knockoff of that Benchmade OTF, gard, as a gag gift. It weights about 2 ozs!
Totin' one I picked up recently, a Sterling Cutlery Co., Germany, multitool. The Germans had bolster issues, the soldered ones fall off easily. Not sure if this one had a bail, but someone re-pinned it, which probably split the shell-like bolster. But, it doesn't bother me and I love the scales.
Happy Friday!

... I woke up this morning with about 141 things to do in town today and went out to find a completely dead battery (looks like it will have to be replaced for about $200 the battery isn't taking a charge 
) . I then went to my second car to find that there was a nail in the tire (a cheaper fix at $20) The second time in a month (I think from going to the scrap yard with all kinds of nails and small sharp metal that people throw out on the ground). So my entire day was blown with dealing with out of service vehicles 
Nice Short-Line*!!!

So sorry for your loss, and it's fantastic that you honor your dad by carrying those knives.garddogg56 wrote: ↑Sat Sep 06, 2025 9:16 pm Been one year since my Dad passed away so I carried his Colonial LB with his company logo on it and his Imperial peanut he love since the 60’s RIP Pop

I thought you might like this combo with a 72 in the mix. It's my favorite 72 and one of the first ones of many I've accumulated over the years. 
.... Sorry DM....I think the wear-marks fooled me ... ... looks like my eyes are going ... 
just like the rest of my body.....
