Often an Ebony boys knife. But not currently.

John, I'm glad to see you enjoying these fine knives!
They are addicting for sure. The #71 is one of my favorites, a nostalgic pattern perfectly executed! The #25 make for great pocket companions, I use mine as a secondary knife, but it's got a lot of cut under the hood.

I've added my #81 stockman to the mix.

I have a lot of knife on me with the #73L in my front pocket and the stockman as back up in a watch pocket. It's nice to have choices though!!!

Nice bone on that 73, johnny!

I carry this one most days. It's a tough one to kick out of the pocket!
