More Orange...... #14459892 01/12/20

OP Lawdwaz Campfire Outfitter L Joined: Jan 2006 Posts: 8,780 WNY	The other "orange" thread prompted me to post these pics. The Ka-Bar was just given to me by my father. It was his go to knife for deer and bird hunting for many years until I gave him a folder 20 years ago. I don't know where he got it but I'd imagine it was 2nd hand. He just turned 80 in December and is unloading some gear. I always thought it was a super cool knife.... The other is my Gene Wiseman folder that has been in the EDC rotation since I got it maybe 10 years ago and it's been a great knife. Always liked orange scales....... And one of the cool logo on the sheath.....

Last month I got an SOG SEAL XR Flipper Knife 3.9" Black TiNi S35VN Clip Point Blade, Black GRN Handles - XR Lock It only comes in black. So I put a square inch piece of fluorescent pink duct tape on each side, so I can find it if I drop it. That sticky tape adition is reversible, as is the modification to closing I made with an Aluminum liner. But the mod to the flipper lever is not going back. To keep the blade from locking closed after I modified the flipper lever [causing an unintended consequence], I made a partial liner that adjusts that closing so the lock cannot lock the blade folded.

The Victorinox paring knife is a favorite of mine and many here I know. Some old timers might remember the ash tray from the 70's........................
