Nice picture and even nicer knife!!

Thanks pal!

Took this a week or so ago....the tree was oozing sap!

Who is the maker, and what model is that knife Scott?

Tony I am sure that is an Anza knife. Don't know the model. The knives are made from files. I remember seeing one of their first ads about 20 years ago and wondering if they [father and son?] would succeed. Clearly they have been successful.

Thanks. Have not seen those before. Good looking hollow grind.

Counts double.

Outside the past couple days....

Found this tree with the ugliest gross wart looking bark....

jmh, be hard to loose 2 of those if dropped. I like them.
Scott, that bark looks like hackberry. But I'm no arborist. Are you the 'boy' in the woods until the other boys show up? I enjoy your enjoyment of the outdoors.

It is Floyd, but according to WIKI hackberry doesn't grow in the south where the sometimes mistaken for hackberry tree, sugarberry does.
According to wikipedia....

Good lord knows I don't even know what an arborist is, let alone someone who studies trees!!

Scott, that is an exceptional photo; fit for a calendar for sure.

Many thanks!!

Took this yesterday...

I'm in the woods quite a bit but seldom have my camera with me. Yesterday our oldest daughter sent me a Oak handled Doctors knife and I had trouble finding a good contrasting background, so I set the little Case 7185 on the edge of the moss covered bird bath. Does that qualify as a knife in the wild? Treefarmer

If you didn't plant the moss and it grew wild, then yes

Nice pic of a nice knife!

Nice shot there Philip!! And yes.. It counts!!!

John, That is some good steel on what looks to be a very handy knife.

Last week...

Last week I fixed corn on the coals.sooooooooooooo good!
