Good one, Mike! I like the way the wharnies stick out when closed, gives a little more to grab hold of.

I didn't even know price had any effect on photogenicicity
Amazing what one can learn hangin' around here ain't it?
Couldn't find pics of my $5 6OT, maybe I never took any?
While searching Schradies, did find an LB-5 that turned out okay.

Guess I shouldn't feel so bad then, can't expect to take 50 year pics after 6 months. I never picked up a camera until I joined this site and wanted to show off some knives. I found out quickly it was harder than it looked. A little more than point and click I guess. I'll keep at it and maybe one day I won't be embarrassed to post on the same page as you photogs.

Re: Knife Photography
I had this Hammer Brand jack (thanks Josh) with me on a little trip we took yesterday to a quarry lake, it is actually perched on a ledge atop a small waterfall that drops off down to the lake....even though you can't really tell from the pic. I was kinda concerned with not slipping over the ledge myself, so had to be satisfied with this shot!

Re: Knife Photography
Thanks Scott and Josh!
Josh I told you I was going to give that ol' Hammer some pocket time...it's literally hair poppin' sharp and makes a perfect carry companion to my Kershaw Knockout, so it's been ridin' in the left front pocket since you sent it my way! Old knife with a new life.
Gotta love it.
