Howdy my fellow BladeBrothers! ::handshake::
I'm still continually dealing with my health problems daily, but wanted to let you know I'm alive and kickin', so I'm posting this knife for you today, I hope you like it!

Ideal weight for belt carry in it's supplied sheath, but a bit heavy for pocket carry.
Pretty cool older knife!

Good to see you buddy. That's a good one, looks like a folding chef's knife.

Very nice folders, Dog!
Another good looking handful there, Mark! Sorry you’re dealing with health issues, but glad to hear you’re alive and kickin’! Take care of yourself, my friend!

Thanks T! ::handshake:: ... ::hmm:: I did not appreciate the old Imperials before joining this forum, I always looked at them as "El Cheapos" as they say "Up North". But I come to appreciate them and rotate them into my EDC routine.

Nice fulcrum-release M&M ::handshake:: Very nice quality from Hubertus. ... ::hmm:: I also get comfort from a fulcrum-release, so I dug out my hand-made fulcrum-release that I got from a trip to Afghanistan back in the olden times.

Many thanks, Zach, ::handshake:: and I see the chef's knife vibe you're getting, but in it's day I'd say it was likely an overall general carry pocket knife, at least IMO. ::shrug:: It feels real good in my hand. ::tu::

Yep, you got it, Tim, it IS a handful, and as I stated above feels good in my hand. Thanks for all your well-wishes, my friend, they are much appreciated. ::handshake:: I'm feeling better everyday. ::groove::

Thanks a bunch for your comments, Dog, ::handshake:: I love the knife you posted in every way, from the fulcrum release to it's plain and simple yet elegant design, finished off with those warm wooden covers. It rounds all the bases for me! ::groove::

Interesting knife Mark. Very nice looking stag on that one as well. So glad to see you posting again. I hope you get feeling better and better.

I took a picture of 4 users that I like a lot. I use one or all of these every day. That Wharncliffe blade on my Kershaw Double Cross is great for opening GEC tubes. Just free hand sharpened all of them and got them back to hair shaving sharp.

I couldn't get in here for a long time, some strange error in the browser. It's great to see all you continue to share. This is very cute :) I caught old Catts at a flea market. I'll have to improve it. And I continue to use Camillus at home, it cuts potatoes very well, like a chef's knife, but it's very small, lol. Now I continue to search for good R183 and R3243. Does anyone have any for sale?

It's weird, the photos I'm attaching look like striped rectangles, that's why I made a photo as a link

Beautiful 4-some, Mark, each of those knives looks like it's just waiting to slide into someone's hand, awesome.

Thanks Mark, these are some of my better EDC’s. So many that I use are old and some cheap, but these are all nice and enjoy using them.

My 3 recent display projects displayed together before they all head their separate ways. Just getting some time with them before the head out.

It seems to be a Turkish garden knife? The beech handle should be quite pleasant to the touch))

I got this seax in a trade with a friend. He bought it in a smith's shop in Denmark. It's heavy, could chop some wood for sure. The wood on the handle is stunning. I tried to capture all the character but I've got mediocre lighting in my basement. I just keep it down here by me. In case I need to do some raiding and or pillaging.
