I agree, this has been a great thread so far. Plenty of beautiful knives. :tu:  See? Sometimes I do have a good idea...... ;)

This evening I carried the Opinel No. 6. Carbone  Most of the day, it was the LF&C Whittler.

Opinels, in my opinion, are the best value in a folding knife, especially the carbon ones. This one cost me under $10 with tax from a local store.

Ocoee River Barlow today.
Hey bud, how do you find these knives?
I think I want one just for the fly fishing logo but it would not hurt if the knives are ok too.

Traditional Challenge Day 12

#117 Case/Tony Bose Swayback Jack w/CV blades & jigged chestnut bone

I'm away from  home in an urban setting for a couple of days.  This is carry for day 1.  This little guy fits perfectly into my jeans' watch pocket.  It's one of the best built knives I own, regardless of brand.

For Shark_za and Grathr, Ocoee River is another brand of Frost Cutlery.  Same as my Uncle Lucky. They're made in China but not bad for the price.

What's the word on old Kutmaster knives ? I've been seeing some of these while I've been browsing.

A old brand, about like Imperial I think. Never owned one but they have sold a ton of knives over the years esp the Girl Scout type knives.


What's the word on old Kutmaster knives ? I've been seeing some of these while I've been browsing.

All the woodgrain Delrin handled knives (and even a couple real wood Buck-like foldinghunters, Proto exclusive, however) you see that are American made, with Proto or Klein Tools on them are Kutmasters. As I said before about the story behind my Klein hawkbill, they are very, very tough, as that one was run over by a few ton piece of mine equipment (apparently, the miner, that cuts up the coal), yet except for a slightly warped blade is unscathed (heck, even the Delrin handles have yet to show wear, despite being carried a lot over 40 odd years) My great-uncle carried a modded Kutmaster electrician's knife (a ground down second main blade, as to cut yarn that would get tangled in the spools as he worked at a yarn factory, replaces the wire stripper/screwdriver) for over fifty years, and I inherited that knife, which in fact, he carried until the day he passed.  While I've never carried it, it is still in good shape. 

However, both my Kleins have minor lock trouble. The little sheepsfoot is the worst, and the hawkbill has slight play.  The blade can partly close with the linerlock engaged a small amount on both.   I never owned a brand new one, so I don't know if this was the way they were made, or due to poor maintenance and/or abuse.

All of my Klein and Kutmaster knives are carbon steel (two Kleins and a Kutmaster), so I don't have any experience with their stainless, and I think everything they make in the "Workman" series that I like is offered in carbon and stainless.  The carbon gets, and holds a great edge easily though.

Thanks for the info   :salute:
