I just popped a Boker Copperhead in my pocket, temporarily replacing the Case Whiskeybone sodbuster. So much variety in traditionals, one could never get bored.

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
Thank you, I love these little guys. They make for a great affordable loaner, beater, don't want to freak non knife people out, or even a gift knife. Also carry one a lot as a second knife and it's very easy to carry. Big fan!

Needed some new work boots, and I always wear cowboy boots and have heard amazing things about the Ariat Workhogs…got to say I like em so far. Got them on my lunch.

Thick Thursday hahahah, that's a new one!
I just can't get enough of these little Guardian 3's! Digging the finish on the newest one.
Guess I'll have to grab a Nimbus finished sheepsfoot version to complete the trio of blade styles!

Nice Guardian3!
Be careful, you'll end up with a whole stable of them.
At this point I have that knife in Cruwear, 3v, M390 (wharnie and regular), v4e (wharnie and regular)..there might be a couple more. The only steel I know of that I don't have is N690. I've actually thought about picking one of those up to complete my set.

I grabbed an AEB-L Bradford a couple of months back.

How about a thick & thin Thursday
Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
I thank you for introducing me to the model! Answering all my questions and posting pics in that thread a few months back. I could carry this or the wharnie everyday without a problem, but obviously still want to use my folders! These knives are well worth the money though.TomAiello wrote: ↑Thu May 06, 2021 7:51 amNice Guardian3!

I feel pretty lucky that my hands must be JUST the right size for a lot of knives that I hear a lot of people saying don't work for them. This is another one of those. I can get a full 4 finger grip on the knife, with a nice snug fit. My pinky rest comfortably right on the butt of the handle.

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
Very true. There's always a new pattern, color, material, or jigging type to tempt me.
These two are in my pockets right now: a Case Peanut and a Case Trapper, both in Kentucky Bluegrass bone. A Dragonfly will be taking its place in my pocket, or on my belt, any second now!
