I had a terrible time trying to pull this Northwoods Indian River Jack in.
I don't usually name things ... but ... I had to give this one a name ... Annabelle

Today it's gonna be this Schrade Old Timer, Middleman Jack with desert ironwood scales. Clip, & pen blades. It's a handy little knife.

I carry this one often. This was Al Mar’s personal EDC knife that he gave me at the ’92 S.O.F. Convention, just a few months before he died.
Al Mar Hawk (Model# 1002TW - TITANWOOD scales)

Z06, very nice, was that a one off or is it a production knife? I don't remember seeing it on his site for sale. I'd love to have one. Nice keepsake you have from Al!

I believe it was an older production knife from the mid 1980s. They might come up on web knife sites with for sale sections.
It means a lot to me after I found out Al and I were both Industrial Design graduates of Art Center (formally L.A. but now in Pasadena). Al built a 2-man submarine as his Masters project. This is a picture a friend took at the '92 S.O.F. after visiting Al at his booth.

Very cool, looks like an early version of the Osprey of the Hawk, that knife is a keeper! I'm going to search around and see if I can find one. It's a nice clean design for pocket carry.

Hobbs, that's one handsome knife sir. I had a Northfield Viper with a wharncliffe blade and it was a great cutting edge for all the day to day tasks. I lost it and really need to pick up another.
DSgrouse, that little Schrade is just the right size. You're gonna like it.
February 25, 2015, 08:17 PM

Thank you sir. GCE61, the edge has good bevels but didn't really come very sharp. The bevels are a good start and I know the edge will be popping with little effort.
