So the new acquisition will ride in my front pocket—probably for the rest of the week—this little thing is a beaut! Fit and finish, 9/10. Wants to jump out of your hand when it fires. And that piece of horn is swirled so nice.IMG_0701.jpegIMG_0698.jpeg
Pics don’t do it justice…

I think Good Old Luke is Happy Old Luke with that beauty.

Luke, I remember those days ... fun, but glad they are behind. "The Book" in leather bound and a nice knife like that , make for a better life.

Someone from my generation… Who remembers it.
Recent life circumstances have led me to the occasional old memory, not dwelling—just reminiscing.
And you are right, that “Book,” has done me a lot of good, and adding the Psalter, daily if I can, has also been a valuable spiritual weapon.
Life is much better with good blades, and daily prayer.
Cheers, my brother, and thanks for chiming in. I’m meeting a lot of fine folks here.

Luke ... "Reminiscing" reminded me of the Little River Band song titled such. Didn't listen to a lot of soft rock back then, but some songs stood out, and I liked 'em. Anyway, back to EDCs ... got this used but not abused 500 at the flea market last weekend. Gonna be in pocket for quite a while. Great carrying cutlery all!

Sweet knife, John, I thought I liked the "Casbah" you posted recently, but this translucent model beats that one all to heck!
You continue to post tasteful cutlery everyday, but every now and then you post one like this and blow the roof right off, well done, buddy!

I just love reading comments from guys who absolutely love their knives, and your knife and post, Luke, reflect that totally! For awhile I thought I was the only one who goes ga-ga over a knife, I'm sure glad that I was wrong, cuz I don't think I can stop, it feels too good! It seems you know what I'm talking about, huh, Luke?

Indeed he is. My first Lever Lock. Ever. And I’m hard pushing 60 years on this rock.
Spring autos were verboten in my Commonwealth until ‘23. So we couldn’t have one.
Now, they’re legal, and my current circumstances require me to go one handed. And it turns out, the switchblade jones is just as powerful my other blade obsessions. Go figure, right?
And because of the frightful economy, and not being able to work, I had to “save up” for this one, (as if I were 15 again, stashing half my caddying tips, to grab a Buck 110 before the rut!)
So I saved a bit at a time, watching the item daily on the site, hoping no one grabbed them all before I could pony up.
(All the stag scaled models got snapped up while I saved Fortunately, I snagged the dark horn before they went OOS.)
And now, it’s snug as a bug in the watch-pocket of my Wranglers, and I’ve had three occasions to use it already, not to mention that I take it out, and snap it a time or two once in a while—just for kicks.
I LOVE “New Knife Day.”

A pocket knife, a marble and a tootsie pop! How old are you? I know how young those make you feel.

I found the marble years ago and keep it on my desk. I've always loved tootsie pops and knives! Haha. I'm still relatively young. 64.
