Ok - just found where Case makes a side-draw sheath for pocket knives...does anyone have these or similar? How is it working out for you? With it being an open top, is the fit nice and good with no lost knives?
They make them for the Trapper as well and that is why I’m asking - thanks

Ron Who - Day 13 - Trapper and SAKs

Today: Böker USA 25th Anniversary Trapper with ivory micarta handles.
And I always carry a few SAKs, even during this traditional challenge.
I would lie if I said I didn´t.

Day: 16

I'm blaming this challenge thread, awl you awl, Mark Twain, and, most of awl, McStitichy for this new arrival. It did provide me with a nice 'use' shot to start Day 16, though......

Am... Yours?

Oh wow, really really not! I've been under the thumb for 18 years and counting!  :D This was a girl we got very close to and she asked us to 'give her' away at her wedding, the Orthodox Jewish tradition is for a married couple to accompany the bride to the Chupa in addition to her parents should they be divorced, an appointment known as 'unterfuhrer'. I've edited the post above for clarity.  :rofl:

Yeah, I knew that, but you might have been going for a bit of bigamy...

Anyway, sounds like a nice thing to do and also a bit of an honour... and free food!  :cheers:

My wife has always said that she has no problem with me marrying a second wife on condition that she does all the cooking, cleaning, ironing, etc and is not allowed anywhere near the bedroom.  :rofl:

Oh and as for the food, they were doing these fresh grilled lamb kebabs that were to die for! I'd have taken a photo but I was too busy trying not to get grease down my shirt. Wearing a bow tie allows no margin for such errors!  :rofl:
