All About Pocket Knives

That just might be a perfect suggestion!

"I'd probably getting one of those leather slips to carry it in." What are they? Like a sleeve to protect a good knife in your pocket?

I saw these things referred to in another post. A simple thin leather sheath with no belt loop or clip, open at the top. Seems like a great solution for a knife you want to carry but protect. I searched and couldn't find the post. I got interested so I went and looked over at SMKW and the closest things they had were Sack Ups.

Hopefully someone will chime in who has a line on these things. They'd be pretty easy to make as the leather is thin. I would think any upholstery shop could whip up a few out of scrap.

I'd like to know where to get some of the soft cases myself. Most of my pocket knives I don't mind carrying in my pocket. But it would be nice to have a few of those cases for the few I'd like to keep clean.... TD

This one is a clever design--holes in the bottom to let crud out.

Here's another, found the thread, it was about an Ohta custom knife.

I decided to throw this casee xx jack in my pocket also. I carried this for a short while back and now I am gonna carry it along with my others again.

SAK
H&R whittler

Lets see some knives fellas. Not adresses for who makes slips.

I have several that I rotate but here are some favorites.

Buck those are my kinda knives man. Great choices!

Well I made a change in my EDC,s as of today.

I am going to a Case xx bone jack I picked up at the flea market today and A SAK Vic cadet along with my Hen & Rooster Blk bone whittler

The case has some pocket scratches on the bolsters but otherwise perfect condition (someone carried it but never used it).
The Vic Cadet is better suited for me and I will use the finger nail file more that the punch that is on the other I was carryin.
The H&R is my trusty companion I just cant put away.

Here are a few pics of the Rough Rider Lockback Mini





I've used it to cut up a summer sausage among other things.

Alrighty, I got me a new 2009 Remington Big Daddy Barlow today. A lot of knife at about 5 inches closed. Will get some actual pictures up hopefully tonight but here is an online pic ... TD

Gino / Just Plain Dave - some fine looking knives... TD

Thanks TD! i am happy with my latest EDC

Still toting my Camillus Boy Scout that Orvet made whole.

TJ, I just picked one of those up at the flea market on Sunday. I really like it. Yours has nicer scales.

It sure didn't start out that way. Some sort of plastice scales all cracked and broken. Orvet rehandled it for me. It's one of my favorite knives.

Sweet knife murph!
