The OFG's Pocket Knife

Post about everything from carrying a handkerchief to manly skills (sharpening a pocket knife, etc), to product reviews of items that may have slipped inder our radar (ie Grandpa's Pine Tar soap). No threads on anything 'new' unless it hearkens to old-fashioned sensibilities and ideals.

The OFG's Pocket Knife

Post by JimVH »

I needed to downsize to carry in dress pants today, so I switched to the RR small cotton sampler. Fun, handy little knife that almost always starts a conversation when I open it.

This one is a bit under 3" closed. There's a larger version available, too.

Smooth bone and the color is… wait for it… tobacco.

Boom.

Currently carrying this Schrade Walden era Electticians knife. It has some wobble but that’s ok with me.

The electrician's knife pattern was my first pocket knife. I'll dig it out and post it when I get back home. Beat to heck with wooden scales and I love it. I got it in my Easter basket when I was 8-ish. It was probably the cheapest knife available because they figured I'd lose it. I showed them.

Rough Rider (I not Y) doctors knife in carbon steel. I've picked up a few of this shape lately. I feel fancy with this thing in my pocket.
